In 2025, Toyota has introduced the new GR Corolla model with some significant changes and upgrades. The base price for the entry Core model has increased to $39,995, which is $2360 more than the previous year. Additionally, there is a new eight-speed automatic transmission option available for an extra $2000, bringing the base automatic price to $41,995.

The Premium and Premium Plus trims now start at $42,575 and $46,650, respectively, offering customers more options and features to choose from. The top Premium Plus trim comes with a bulged hood, functional air vents, and a carbon-fiber roof for a sportier look.

While the horsepower remains the same at 300, Toyota has increased the torque output to 295 pound-feet, matching the 2023 Morizo edition. All trims now come standard with front and rear limited-slip differentials, and the suspension has been revised to reduce wheel lift during hard cornering. Models with the automatic transmission also get exclusive features like launch control and adaptive cruise control.

The 2025 GR Corolla has received a minor facelift with a focus on improving airflow and cooling. The redesigned front fascia, new brake ducts, and additional sub-radiator all work together to enhance performance, especially on the track. Toyota has announced that the new models will start arriving at dealerships later this fall, giving customers the opportunity to experience the upgrades firsthand.
