Re Yaris Rally2
"I think there’s multiple layers to its importance,” Fowler told DirtFish.
“The target is that more people can enjoy what we have created in terms of performance driving rally cars. At the moment only four people in the world get to experience what Toyota Gazoo Racing WRC team is doing.
“As you’ve seen from Akio [Toyoda, president of Toyota] he’s completely keen on everyone who wants to enjoying driving as much as possible, for whatever reason that makes them happy, not just winning world championships but winning maybe your local rally or regional championship, or just on a Sunday for fun.”

Checked Rally3 Fiesta price when it came, prices might have changed
Rally ready car in either Gravel or Asphalt config 99 900 euro
VIN number registration 10 000 euro
Gravel or Asphalt conversion kit 10 000 euro
total 120 000
Normal equipment/ spares package chosen by most drivers/teams 10 000-30 000 euro
In grand total 130 to 150 000 euro
So aprox 50% of a Rally2 car, with same equipment.

Toyota will have indeed three cylinders. They could use an external team in 2024 for running the WRC2 team.
