A rally-bred hot hatch for everyday thrills

Drive a GR Corolla

A Toyota GR Corolla car rental on Turo gives you 300 hp from a turbocharged three-cylinder, standard GR-FOUR all-wheel drive, and seats for five. It brings a rally-bred edge to Toyota car rental, with your pick of a six-speed manual or an eight-speed automatic.

On Turo, you choose the exact GR Corolla you want and book it from a local vehicle owner. Then you arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans — a weekend escape, a week of errands, or anything in between.

Turbocharged, all-wheel-drive power

The GR Corolla gets its punch from a 1.6L turbocharged three-cylinder (G16E-GTS) that makes 300 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque. Standard GR-FOUR all-wheel drive sends that power to all four wheels, so you get grip to match the muscle.

Choose your shift

GR Corolla rentals on Turo come with either a six-speed manual or an eight-speed GR-DAT automatic. The transmission varies from car to car, so check the listing before you book.

The manual puts every gear change in your hands, and it's slightly thriftier at 24 mpg combined versus 22 mpg for the automatic. The automatic delivers the same 300 hp without the clutch work (a welcome trade in stop-and-go traffic). Either way, you're steering a hot hatch that rewards every on-ramp and open stretch of road.

Adjustable all-wheel drive

GR-FOUR all-wheel drive lets you choose how your GR Corolla splits power between the front and rear wheels. In Normal mode, it sends 60% to the front and 40% to the rear for balanced everyday driving.

Switch to an even 50/50 split for extra traction, or pick a rear-biased setting that sends up to 70% to the rear. That flexibility helps you stay sure-footed when the weather shifts — think rain-slicked highways or a chilly mountain-town morning. Learn the settings before you go, and you'll feel confident on whatever public roads your trip covers.

Stand out with a GR Corolla

The GR Corolla is a hot hatch that seats five and holds 17.8 cubic feet of cargo, so you don't trade practicality for fun. It's a natural fit for a test drive before you buy, a weekend of scenic canyon roads, or a special occasion. For even more thrills, browse sports car rental on Turo.

Top GR Corolla features

Rally-inspired heritage

Three strengths set the GR Corolla apart: rally-inspired heritage, hatchback practicality, and surprising efficiency.

The GR Corolla wears its motorsport roots with pride, and the story starts under the hood. Its powertrain draws inspiration from the World Rally Championship. Toyota developed the GR-FOUR all-wheel-drive system with the Toyota Gazoo Racing World Rally Team.

You feel that pedigree in the details: a 300 hp turbocharged three-cylinder, power to all four wheels, and adjustable drive settings. Every GR Corolla is assembled in Japan, too. Slide behind the wheel, and you're driving a hot hatch with a genuine rally story behind it.

Hatchback practicality

Here's the twist: the GR Corolla is still a four-door hatchback. You get five seats and 17.8 cubic feet of cargo space, with room for weekend bags, groceries, or gear for a day trip.

At 173.6 inches long, it's compact enough for tight city parking and busy downtown streets. Rear passengers get their own doors, too, so friends don't have to squeeze past the front seats. That makes the GR Corolla an easy pick when you want performance without leaving anyone behind.

Surprising efficiency

For a car with 300 hp, the GR Corolla is easier on gas than you might expect. The manual version earns 21 mpg city, 28 mpg highway, and 24 mpg combined, while the automatic averages 22 mpg combined.

Toyota recommends premium fuel, so plan on 91 octane or higher when you stop at the gas station. That's a small step for a hot hatch this quick. Pair it with 28 mpg on the highway, and longer scenic drives become easier to plan.

Top tips and things to know before renting a GR Corolla

Get to know your GR Corolla

A little prep helps you get the most from your GR Corolla — here's what to check, how to drive it, and what you'll pay.

Start with the listing: check the year, the trim (GR Corolla or Premium Plus), and the transmission. Manual and automatic versions feel very different from behind the wheel, so confirm which one you're booking before you check out.

If your trip calls for a calmer commuter, a Toyota Camry rental or Toyota Prius rental keeps things easygoing. Need more space for passengers and luggage? A Toyota 4Runner rental gives you extra room.

GR Corolla driving tips

A few simple habits help you enjoy every mile in your GR Corolla on public roads:

Book early to lock in the year, trim, and transmission you want.

Confirm whether your GR Corolla has a manual or automatic before your trip.

Fill up with premium fuel rated 91 octane or higher.

Learn the all-wheel-drive mode dial before you pull away.

Adjust your seat and mirrors before you head out.

How much does it cost to rent a GR Corolla?

The cost to rent a GR Corolla on Turo depends on the car's year, your trip length, any extras, and whether you choose delivery. Search your dates and location to see current GR Corolla prices.

Book four or more days ahead to save with a 10% non-refundable discount. You can also look for listings with duration discounts at three days, one week, or a month.

  1. * Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
