This is it - your first look at the upcoming 2021 Toyota Vios GR Sport!

Complementing its racy intentions are new side-skirts and special wheels. A new bootlid spoiler and aggressive rear bumper with a diffuser complete the look. Checks with our sources reveal that the Vios GR Sport will wear a bespoke bodykit, unlike the Aerokit Pack

Since its launch, the radically different 2019 Toyota Vios facelift has been spoiling us with the latest technologies and safety systems.
