If you were ever a fan of the Toyota Corolla, then the GR-tuned ones must keep you giggling with both excitement and joy for the thrilling ride it is about to unleash from the 2023 model year.

One thing that you can count on Toyota to deliver is reliability and well-affordable vehicles, but the car giant has decided not to stay in just the reliable pond and has shot itself into the spine-thrilling adventurous brand.

The compact hatchback Corolla gets the GR treatment, and it has given results that can make any car buff spruce up from the seats.

Toyota already experimented with the GR treatment with the Toyota Yaris, and now the Corolla GR is giving more than just your standard results. Corolla not only just follows Yaris but also gets the same turbocharged 1.6-litre three-cylinder engine from it.

This spruced-up new GR Corolla not only adds the much-needed thrill to the Toyota lineup but also gives the results users want, and that might be the reason why it is not only listed as one of the top cars of 2023 it is also ranked second among all the cars of the same range preceded only by Honda Civic Type R.

When will the 2023 Toyota GR Corolla be released?

Finally, the top-end variant, which is loaded with features and raised in performance and efficiency Morizo Edition, will be priced at $50,995.
