The two-pedal option isn’t the only change, with the GR Corolla’s turbocharged 1.6-litre three-cylinder engine receiving a 30Nm torque boost, now developing 400Nm – a tune previously reserved for the track-focused, two-seat Morizo Edition.

There’s no extra power, which ******** at 221kW across both transmissions, however Toyota claims it packs more of a punch at higher revs than before.

Toyota has also given the GR Corolla a new face, with its revised front bumper claimed to not only be more aerodynamic but also provide better cooling capabilities than the pre-update model.

According to Toyota, this includes better direction of air to the brake ducts, reducing the risk of overheating when on track.

Changes under the skin include a retuned suspension setup – claimed to improve the GR Corolla’s handling under acceleration through corners – as well as a revised anti-lock braking system calibration, more direct steering, and sharper clutch pedal engagement in manual versions.

There also appear to be no changes to the GR Corolla’s interior, which includes a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, 8.0-inch infotainment touchscreen, selectable all-wheel drive models (which split the torque between the front and rear axles) and sports seats.

The Toyota GR Corolla range currently opens at $64,190 before on-road costs tag for the GTS. It’s unclear how much of a change there’ll be with the 2025 lineup.
