Toyota Gr Corolla will be assembled in a country in which it is not for sale

Toyota confirmed that in 2026 it organizes the production of GR Corolla at a factory in the UK – the company took such a step to reduce the supply of sports execution of the model to North America. In the meantime, Toyota GR Corolla is collected at the factory in Japan, and in the UK it is not sold at all. But there is a regular Corolla hatchback and the Corolla Touring Sport station wagon.

GR Corolla leaves the conveyor of the Toyota Motomachi plant in Iokogama, but demand is ahead of the pace of production. The company has already been loaded to the limit, so the company decided to establish the assembly of the model outside Japan. The choice fell at the British factory in Deribishir, which has been operating since 1992 and currently produces Corolla and its derivatives for the European market. So far, it is only known that the GR Corolla of the British assembly will be delivered to North America, and the target annual indicator of the plant production is 10 thousand cars.

GR Corolla debuted in 2022: structurally hot hatch is close to Corolla Sport, but it is technically unified with GR Yaris. It is driven by a “turbotor” of 1.6 liters, which develops 304 horsepower. The pair is a mechanical gearbox, although the version with an eight -speed Aisin automatic is expected to sell.

Earlier this month, it became known that a special limited Toyota Corolla FX series in memory of the sports hatchback Corolla FX16 of the late last century will be released for the United States. Such cars will have white wheel discs, a black spoiler, a darkened Toyota emblem and three exclusive body colors. The circulation will be only 1.6 thousand copies.
