    2024 Toyota GR Yaris gets automatic gearbox and more features

    What's the story

    Toyota has updated the 2024 GR Yaris with an optional eight-speed automatic transmission, known as Direct Automatic Transmission.

    Unveiled at the 2023 Japan Mobility Show, this torque-converter automatic gearbox is designed for quicker shifts and track-specific shift logic.

    Tested in the Super Taikyu endurance series and the Japan Rally Championship, the GR Yaris now competes with other automatic transmission performance cars on the market.

    Improvements

    Performance and cooling improvements for 2024 GR Yaris

    In addition to the new automatic transmission, the 2024 GR Yaris boasts several upgrades.

    A "Circuit" specification offers enhanced cooling, including an extra radiator, intercooler spray, and a revamped intake system.

    Automatic gearbox-equipped models also feature a dedicated gearbox cooler, visible in the side intakes.

    The turbocharged three-cylinder engine receives a power boost from a fortified valvetrain, new exhaust valve material, increased direct injection pressure, a fresh intake air pressure sensor, and redesigned lightweight pistons.

    Design

    Redesigned interior and exterior for the 2024 GR Yaris

    The 2024 GR Yaris features several updates both inside and out.

    A bolder front bumper houses the additional coolers, while the interior has been entirely reimagined to focus on the driver.

    The dashboard may seem a bit peculiar and outdated compared to its predecessor but now includes a 12.3-inch digital driver's display from the GR Corolla.

    Although this updated GR Yaris won't be sold in several global markets, its components could potentially be integrated into future GR Corolla models.
