TESTED 24.2.22, BARCELONA, SPAIN ON SALE NOW
This is, perhaps, the Toyota GR Yaris of your dreams: a stripped-out competition version of the hot hatch of the moment, with rally-spec suspension and gravel or dirt tyres, plus some driveline tweaks but no uplift in power or complexity, so it's still very approachable.
The Toyota Gazoo Racing Iberian Cup is a joint venture between Toyota Spain, the Madrid-based Motor and Sports Institute (MSI), and Caetano, Portugal's long-time Toyota importer. It will form the basis of a one-make series consisting of nine mostly gravel rallies around the Iberian peninsula.
MSi has developed the car. It has made some obvious changes to the road-legal GR Yaris (shell seats, a roll cage, a fire-retardant interior stripped almost bare) and some more clandestine ones.
