Toyota GR SUVs are coming!

TOYOTA LOOKS TO BROADEN ITS GAZOO RACING PORTFOLIO AS GR CHIEF SAYS SUVS WILL GET HARDCORE PERFORMANCE VERSIONS IN THE FUTURE

- JORDAN HICKEY

PERUSE THE GROWING line-up of Toyota GR models, which currently includes the GR Yaris, GR Corolla, GR Supra and GR86, and you'll notice a key omission: there is no performance SUV.

Given GR's mission is to make fun machines that "make car guys smile" you could argue the lack of a heavier, higher-riding SUV makes total sense, yet that doesn't mean a GR SUV isn't on the radar for Australia's most popular brand.

Tomoya Takahashi is GR's company president and, while on a recent visit to Australia, he told Wheels that it's logical to begin to add SUV bodies to the GR model range in the future.
