How much is a 2023 Toyota GR Corolla?
|
Pricing for Toyota‘s 2023 GR Corolla has just been announced. The AWD hot hatch that’s been steadily gaining interest amongst automotive enthusiasts will be available in three trims for the North American market — Core, Circuit, and Morizo. Show All set at 300 horsepower via a turbocharged 1.6-liter inline-three, each model sees different levels of performance upgrades in a six-speed manual package. The Core features aluminum pedals, a 12.3-inch digital dash, sports seats, an 8-inch infotainment system, and a 6-speaker sound system. The Circuit adds a limited-edition shift knob, a carbon fiber roof, a big brake upgrade, and limited-slip differentials for both axles. The circuit will also be limited to 1,500 units. Finally, the Morizo (named after Akio Toyoda) takes the Circuit trim and further enhances it with a new tune that adds 22 more pounds of torque, tighter gear ratios, and a weight-reducing package (removal of the rear seats, rear speakers, rear window regulators, and lightweight forged 18-inch wheels). It is rumored that only 200 of the Mirizo editions will be sold in the U.S. Set for a launch in Fall, the models will be priced at $37,000, $44,000, and $51,000 USD for the Core, Circuit, and Morizo versions, respectively.

Full Image Gallery >> The high-performance 2023 Toyota GR Corolla will start at $36,996 (including $1,095 for destination), Toyota announced Tuesday morning. Pricing for the big sibling to the (not-for-America) GR Yaris will ramp north of $50,000 for the limited-edition Morizo Edition designed for those who want the absolute baddest of the bad Toyota compacts. For a hair under $37,000, the Core model comes with sport seats, black and gray interior accents, aluminum pedals, a 12.3-inch instrument display, an 8-inch infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and a six-speaker sound system. Optional upgrades on Core include the Performance package (which adds limited-slip differentials); a Technology package with navigation, wireless phone charging and JBL eight-speaker sound system; and a Cold Weather package with heated seats and steering wheel. The next step up is the Circuit Edition at $43,995. Only available for the 2023 model year, it bundles in the Core model's option extras, interior and exterior visual upgrades, automatic climate control and a shift knob with the signature of "Morizo," (a.k.a Akio Toyoda). To improve its center of gravity, it also comes with a carbon fiber roof. But for those who really want to flaunt their Toyota fanaticism, there's the ultra-exclusive Morizo Edition.  Checking in at $50,995, the top rung of the GR Corolla ladder incorporates a gruntier version of the 1.6-liter, three-cylinder turbo that powers the Core and Circuit Edition. Horsepower remains the same (300 ponies) but you get an additional 22 pound-feet of torque to go with it care of a factory software upgrade. There's not only more torque overall, but the engine's torque curve was shifted lower in the RPM range to improve low-end and midrange performance. It also benefits from an upgraded close-ratio manual transmission and differentials with shorter gearing to improve acceleration. Like any good performance car, the Morizo's selling point is that you get less car for more money. Its curb weight is just 3,186 pounds — 106 pounds less than the Circuit Edition — and that comes at the cost of utility. Toyota removed the rear seat from the car, and along with it, the rear door speakers, rear window regulators, rear wiper blade and accompanying wiper motor. It also features lighter-weight, model-exclusive forged 18-inch wheels. Standard safety features across all models include automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, lane-centering, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert and automatic high-beam headlights. On top of that the car comes with a one-year membership to National Auto Sport Association (the other NASA) plus a High-Performance Driving Event with instruction.
