Toyota has decided to move production of the GR Corolla hatchback GR Corolla from Japan to its UK plant from 2026 in response to increased demand for the sporty model. The move will allow faster delivery to the US market. The Gazoo Racing division, responsible for sporty models, has grown significantly in popularity, with models such as the GR Supra and GR Yaris in its portfolio.
