2023 Toyota GR Corolla: Car and Driver 10Best:
Our fact-checkers have emerged, coughing, from the dusty depths of the office archive with confirmation that the GR is the first Toyota Corolla ever to make its way onto a 10Best list. This is no ordinary Corolla.
The GR looks, drives, and often sounds like the rally replica it’s not—Toyota’s current World Rally Championship competitor is a hybridized Yaris. Despite that, the GR Corolla possesses an abundance of the spirit we loved in such stage-honed specials as the Subaru WRX and Mitsubishi Evo. While 300 horsepower might not be exceptional for a modern hot hatchback, the GR’s way of generating it is. The big output comes from a tiny engine, a 1.6-liter inline-three with a turbocharger capable of making up to 26.3 psi of boost. This gives an entirely unsurprising amount of low-down lag but also huge midrange punch. The triple’s thrumming, offbeat exhaust note is overlaid by induction whoosh and wastegate flutter.
