The five-seater GR Corolla adapts to both city trips and track days with multiple drive modes—Normal, Eco, Sport, Gravel, and Track. Its five-door layout allows easy access for passengers, while the spacious rear seats ensure comfort during rides.

The GR Corolla features an aerodynamic silhouette, 18-inch 235/40 aluminum wheels, Bi-LED headlights with manual leveling, LED daytime running lamps, and a rear spoiler. Functional air vents, a triple exhaust, and a diffuser improve performance and stability.

The interior is driver-focused, with a 12.3-inch Multi Info Display, Head-up Display, synthetic leather and suede 6-way manual sport seats, and a 7-inch Display Audio system supporting wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Boot space is designed to accommodate cargo efficiently.
