SONOMA, Calif. (September 25, 2025) – Get ready to unleash your spirit of adventure with the new 2026 GR Corolla. Featuring the GR-FOUR All-Wheel Drive System, this machine is designed to master all sorts of terrain—whether it’s at the track, on dirt, or on snow—this powerhouse is the perfect partner for exhilarating journeys and unforgettable thrills.

The GAZOO Racing team has been hard at work, driving in challenging environments such as the Nürburgring, to implement track-tested enhancements for this model year. With 45.6 feet of additional structural adhesive in the front and rear sections of the body, the GR Corolla boasts improved body rigidity and rear grip for better suspension movement and direct feeling, helping to ensure consistent steering and stable cornering. Plus, a new secondary air intake duct helps optimize temperatures to deliver maximum engine performance for relentless power on those long drives.

For 2026, the GR Corolla is available in two dynamic grades: GR Corolla and GR Corolla Premium Plus. The GR Corolla comes well-equipped with standout design features like a bulge hood with functional gloss-black air vents, a color-keyed spoiler, and striking gloss black 15-spoke cast alloy wheels, all complemented by Brin Naub® suede-trimmed sport seats with sleek grey stitching. Step up to the GR Corolla Premium Plus, which offers a host of standard premium features, including a forged carbon fiber roof, a gloss black rear spoiler, matte black 15-spoke cast alloy wheels, and Brin Naub suede-trimmed sport seats with bold red stitching, along with a Head-up Display for an enhanced driving experience.

The JBL Premium Sound System has been enhanced to elevate the audio experience during everyday and track driving. The 2026 GR Corolla Premium Plus grade now features nine speakers throughout the vehicle, including a subwoofer in the luggage compartment, delivering clearer and more powerful sound. Additionally, vehicles equipped with the JBL Premium Sound System now include Active Sound Control (ASC), which emits sporty sounds through the speakers that correspond to changes in acceleration, deceleration, and driving force based on accelerator and shift lever operation. This provides the driver more audio cues to help sense the vehicle’s state.

The 2026 Toyota GR Corollas are expected to arrive at Toyota dealerships this fall with a starting Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $39,920.*

*MSRP Excludes Dealer Processing and Handling fee of $1,195. All prices are subject to change.
