Who he is?
Is there any topic without theese photos of the Yaris rally2?
It looks a little better in tarmac spec, but I’m still not sure about it… I wonder if it will look alright once its in full TGR livery like the AP4 version.
I saw a GR Yaris up close at work today for the first time (as opposed to photos or from a distance driving past a Toyota dealership) and the width and height don’t look quite so out of proportion as I thought. But still, the bonnet height still makes the thing look a bit ungainly - that’s the only awkward part of it even in AP4 spec.
If it was a squished Corolla rather than a beefed up Yaris then I think this car could’ve actually looked good from the outset.
Some interesting news about Toyota GR Yaris Rally2 have been published on ERC website today:
Although this year will be focused on testing and development, the GR Yaris Rally2 will make its competition debut in Japanese championship – which permits cars homologated on a national basis – on the Shinshiro Rally from March 3-5. Other rallies are also possible this year.

P.S. Side note - I'm surprised that Toyota won ERC only 4 times.
Toyota with the GR Yaris will be a welcome new addition to the ranks of Rally2 car manufacturers. The first new one for a while and since we have lost VW, and previously Peugeot.
Pity it's still another year away from being ready for ERC/WRC2. If it had been ready now maybe the Fabia RS would've had some competition this season (in both performance and sales).
