Toyota Gazoo Racing (TGR) today officially unveiled the long-awaited Toyota GR GT3. The new race car is based on the GR GT and was developed under the motto “driver-first”, with the needs of the drivers being the focus from the outset.
Under the direction of TMC President Akio Toyoda (aka racing driver Morizo), professional drivers, gentleman drivers and internal test drivers were involved in the development together with the engineers. The aim was to create a racing car that is easy to drive for both professional teams and amateur drivers and at the same time meets the highest performance requirements.
The GR GT3 is characterized by a low centre of gravity, low weight with high rigidity and aerodynamic efficiency. It meets the FIA GT3 specifications for customer sports cars. TGR also relies on extensive testing – on driving simulators, test tracks worldwide and on public roads – to ensure performance, durability and suitability for everyday use.
The market launch of the GR GT3 is planned for 2027. Further details will be announced in due course.
