When it comes to small steel cannon models, I think most people think of either the Golf GTI or the Fox ST, which are German and American cars.
When it comes to Japanese cars, you can at most think of the Civic Type R.
In fact, the high-performance cars in Japanese cars are not unique to Honda, and Toyota and Nissan are also very enthusiastic.
Take the two cars we are more familiar with, Toyota Corolla and Nissan Qida, there are high-performance models launched in overseas markets, that is, GR Corolla and Qida NISMO.
Recently, according to overseas media reports, GR Corolla will be officially unveiled on April 1 this year.
Like the GR 86, the GR Corolla is also a sports model launched by Toyota's high-performance sports brand GR.
Overall, gr corolla looks similar to the AMERICAN version of the hatchback version of corolla.
However, as a model that focuses on performance, gr corolla is very sporty in terms of appearance design. Not only is a large intake grille used in the front part of the face, but also the two sides are equipped with ventilation holes to facilitate heat dissipation in the engine compartment.
At the same time, GR Corolla has also upgraded the front and rear bumpers with exclusive rear wings and a three-sided three-out exhaust layout.
On the body and tail, there are letters such as "GR" and "GR FOUR", indicating his identity.
The new car will be available in both core and Circuit Edition models. Among them, the Core version is expected to be available in the US market by the end of 2022. Circuit Edition, likely, will be launched in 2023.
In terms of interior, GR Corolla basically follows the same design style as the ordinary corolla, equipped with a central control LCD display, full LCD dashboard, three-frame multi-function steering wheel, adaptive cruise, wireless charging, lane departure warning, vehicle collision warning, pedestrian detection, JBL audio and integrated sports seats.
In terms of power, although the GR Corolla is equipped with a 1.6T three-cylinder engine, the maximum power has reached 300 horsepower and the maximum torque is 370 Nm, far exceeding the power level of the 2.0T Golf GTI.
In addition, the new car is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission and is equipped with a multi-disc clutch four-wheel drive system.
Car quick review speculated that even if this car enters the domestic market in the future, the price should be around 300,000 yuan.
