Thus, the Toyota WRC car was built upon the current spec road car, but now they seem to be adding new panels from the next road car, due to be launched soon/early 2017.
As far as I can tell the North American one is only sold as a 4 door sedan, so it's not that one.Quote:

In some Asian markets they sell this, which it clearly isn't. Rear View:

As Mirek pointed out it looks more likely to be the 'new' (looks more like a heavy facelift) Yaris.
No mention here that it's based on the current one but the window line suggests it is, rather than an all-new model
Come on guys, take a closer look. The rear seems different due to the new wing design. It’s now attached under the glass (not on C pillars like it used to be) by a large panel that must have also some aero effect. The rear lights are almost covered by the bumper deflectors, but those are a bit shorter on the top to give space to them.Quote:

The Yaris WRC is based on the European and Japanese (5 door Vitz) model that was face lifted a couple of years ago, using a Yago look. The former TMG proto used a pre restyle body, but the TGR car (like the new Vitz AP4 rally car) uses the restyled one under heavy camo. A new Yaris is only expected to appear on late ’17 (the Auto Express images are probably 3 or 4 years old and came from the facelift testing model!).

Btw, that Yaris L version it’s not sold in Japan and is a joint venture with Asian partners. It’s also sold in South America.
Sorry, you are way off. This is the new Yaris, heavily facelifted and due for reveal soon-ish.Quote:

You shall see soon.
at the photos posted by tomhlord,you can see that the car with the new rear aero,is impossible to have fitted the rear lights from the white one car.There is no space for these tail lights due to taller fins has the new car beside the rear wheel.At white car these fins are not so high,so there is space for the rear light.
Fins ends much higher at new car,higher from the upper part of wheel,at white car fins ends at same height as wheel upper part.
For sure it is NOT only camouflage. The rear is really different. Maybe there are two teams. First one is working on 2017 WRC and second one is working on 2018 WRC (Hyundai did it in past too). I don´t know where is the truth, there are many possibilities.
Why are Toyota making the WRC cars RHD?
Tailgate also has different lines along the rear window and the number plate area looks totally different rear
