The Appeal
The Toyota GR Yaris RS saw the marque's return to performance-focused engineering, bringing rally-bred technology to the road in a big way. This particular example is a rare DARKSIDE Special Edition, featuring exclusive styling elements and interior appointments that set it apart from standard models.
This 2023 GR Yaris RS is handsomely specced, with a 1.5-litre petrol engine that's married to an automatic transmission with 10-speed paddle shift capability. With just 2,971 kilometres on the clock (approximately 2,000 miles), this practically new vehicle has been recently imported from Japan and registered in the UK. The comprehensive specification includes driver assistance features such as Automatic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Assist, and Blind Spot Monitoring. The resulting car is a thoroughly modern performance car that's equally at home on daily commutes as it is on spirited weekend drives.
The Toyota GR Yaris RS 1.5-litre petrol version produces 118 bhp (brake horsepower). This model is exclusive to the Japanese market. Key specifications for the GR Yaris RS: Engine: 1.5-litre, naturally-aspirated, three-cylinder Dynamic Force engine (M15A-FKS). Power: 118 bhp (120 PS, 88 kW). Torque: 145 N⋅m (107 lb⋅ft). Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive (FWD). Transmission: Direct Shift-CVT (continuously variable transmission) with a 10-speed Sequential Shiftmatic mode. This model differs significantly from the international GR Yaris, which features a more powerful 1.6-litre turbocharged engine and a four-wheel-drive system
