There's still no sign of a UK variant, but Toyota has released details of a more focused GR Corolla...
-sized hot hatchback. Yet while Toyota still insists that there’s no plans to bring the GR Corolla to the UK or Europe on account of there already being three excellent models on offer, the JDM’s right-hand drive production factor means the door isn’t entirely shut on it eventually making its way to our shores.
Specific to the Morizo are some additions to its technical package that go even further than the RZ and US models, starting with the structure itself which has been stiffened on account of its extra 3.3 metres of structural adhesive and the addition of body reinforcement braces – one of which makes its way between the rear strut mounts thanks to the removal of the rear seats.
Unlike the GR Yaris’s chassis that combines a mix-and-match of elements from both the standard Yaris and larger C-HR crossover, the Corolla’s structure is closer to the base car. Suspension at both ends is new, with wider tracks front and rear on modified MacPherson front and double wishbone rear suspension layouts. Morizo models come with new Monotube dampers on both axles, which also lowers the ride height by 5mm, but all GR Corollas otherwise utilise passive dampers.
