Toyota Gazoo Racing (TGR) officially unveiled the highly anticipated Toyota GR GT3 today. The new race car is based on the GR GT and was developed with the motto „Driver-First,“ with drivers' needs at the forefront from the beginning.
Under the leadership of TMC President Akio Toyoda (aka racing driver Morizo), professional drivers, gentleman drivers, and in-house test drivers were involved in the development along with engineers. The goal was to create a race car that is easy to drive for both professional teams and amateur drivers, while also meeting the highest performance requirements.
The GR GT3 is characterized by a low center of gravity, low weight with high rigidity, and aerodynamic efficiency. It meets the FIA GT3 specifications for customer racing cars. TGR also uses extensive testing – on driving simulators, test tracks worldwide, and public roads – to ensure performance, durability, and everyday usability.
The market launch of the GR GT3 is planned for 2027. Further details will be announced in due course.
