The 2026 Toyota GR Yaris Aero Performance Package is now available in Australian showrooms and brings a range of aerodynamic improvements to the baby performance hatch.
The package, announced in September, is limited to the top-spec GR Yaris GTS trim and adds $4,500 to the list price – that’s $64,990 before on-road for the six-speed manual and $67,490 for the eight-speed automatic.
Toyota says the upgrades were developed using expertise from its GR Yaris World Rally Championship (WRC) winning cars, which won 12 of the 14 rounds in 2025, giving Toyota its ninth manufacturers’ title.
Up front, the Aero package features a front lip spoiler that reduces lift and provides more lateral grip for faster cornering, as well as a large central bonnet vent to improve cooling of the 1.6-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine producing 221kW/400Nm.

There are vents on the front guards and side vents on the rear bumpers, which the automaker says improve overall stability.
A manually adjustable tailgate-mounted rear spoiler also provides more downforce – and therefore stability – while new underbody components smooth airflow beneath the vehicle, which rides on the same 18-inch alloy wheels as the regular GTS versions.
Prices for the rest of the GR Yaris range remain unchanged, starting at $55,490 before on-road costs for the entry-level six-speed manual version of the GT. The flagship GTS features a Torsen limited-slip differential, Michelin tires and red GR brake calipers from $60,490 plus on-road costs.
Gazoo Racing is one of the five core brands that Toyota Motor Group announced as its main focus earlier this year, alongside Lexus, Daihatsu, Toyota and the expanding ultra-luxury brand Century.
GR’s flagship product will be the GR GT supercar, powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged hybrid and unveiled earlier this month alongside a race-ready GT3 version.
Toyota will also compete in the Supercars championship in Australia from 2026, with the GR Supra sports car – which goes out of production in March – powered by a 5.2-litre V8 engine.
The MR2 name – most recently used for a mid-engined sports car – was also recently trademarked in Australia, suggesting it could be making a comeback – as are comments from Toyota saying the Celica sports car could also return to showrooms.
