The Toyota GR Corolla, an updated hot hatchback, has made its way to Thailand after its debut in the US market earlier this year. The vehicle's appearance at the 2024 Thailand International Motor Expo has sparked excitement among rally racers and raised questions about its potential arrival in the Philippines.
With each passing month, the elusive Toyota GR Corolla gets closer and closer to the Philippines . After making its debut in the US market earlier this year, this updated hot hatchback has now made its way to Thailand.
The GR Corolla took the stage at the 2024 Thailand International Motor Expo to the delight and excitement of rally racers across the nation. But the question remains, will the Toyota GR Corolla be coming to the Philippines?Toyota Vios gets Nightshade edition; PH launch of all-new model still unknownBack in August, the Toyota GR Corolla debuted in the United States with an interesting set of transmission options.
And that’s what’s coming into the Thai market. The manual GR Corolla will not be sold in Thailand—just the automatic will be available. This may decrease the chances of the manual GR Corolla entering the Philippine market, too, but it’s a bit difficult to predict what Toyota Motor Philippines would bring in. The Toyota GR Yaris and the GR86 are both available in manual, while the GR Supra is solely in stock with an automatic transmission.
In terms of pricing, buyers in Thailand will be paying THB4,199,000 for their facelifted Toyota GR Corolla. That is an incredibly steep price compared to the GR models available in the Philippines. Both the Toyota GR86 and the GR Yaris come in at under P3 million, and the Toyota GR Supra starts at P5,456,000.
Toyota will likely adjust the pricing if ever the Japanese carmaker decides to bring the GR Corolla to the Philippines. Considering the local lineup of GR-spec’d machines, how much would you pay for a Toyota GR Corolla?See Also Read Next BYD Denza D9 wants to steal sales away from Toyota Alphard View other articles about:
