New 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Morizo Limited Edition – High-Performance Hatchback.
Toyota has taken performance to a whole new level with the arrival of the strictly limited Morizo Edition – an even more focused version of the acclaimed GR Corolla.
Limited to just 25 units for Australia, the Morizo Edition adds a range of focused enhancements over the GR Corolla GTS designed to maximise precision handling and track-day performance.
The 1.6-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine underpinning the GR Corolla range has been tuned to produce an extra 30Nm of torque, to a maximum of 400Nm from 3250-4600rpm. Power remains the same with 221kW at 6500rpm.
To help optimally deploy all 400Nm, engineers recalibrated the close-ratio six-speed intelligent manual transmission with altered gear ratios for the first and third gear, allowing for the engine power band to be used more efficiently. The final gear ratio has also been configured to optimise drive torque.
High-strength gear material has been adopted to improve durability, with the first, third, fourth, fifth and final drive gears gaining shock treatment to enhance shock torque strength. The spring inside the synchroniser has also been strengthened in the name of improved shifting performance during sports driving.
Official fuel economy figures for the Morizo Edition stands at 8.6 litres per 100km1 on the combined cycle, with combined cycle CO2 emissions of 196 grams per km
Monotube shock absorbers have been adopted on the Morizo Edition, further improving roll rigidity and responsiveness of the MacPherson strut front and double-wishbone rear suspension.
Handling grip is enhanced with the fitment of sticky 245/40ZR18 Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber, wrapped around 10-spoke, 18-inch BBS®3 forged alloy wheels. “TOYOTA GAZOO RACING” is engraved into the outer edge of the rim, with the “R” finished in red for a special visual touch.
Building on the rigid and lightweight TNGA-C platform, the Morizo Edition adds further structural reinforcements to provide the stiffest possible underpinnings.
Compared to the GTS, an extra 3334mm of structural adhesive has been applied throughout the Morizo Edition’s body, representing a 6082mm increase over the standard Corolla hatch.
Inside the cabin two new braces bolster structural reinforcement, with a suspension tower brace between the rear wheels joined by a new floor brace in place of the rear seats.
The removal of the rear seats represent just one of the many weight-saving measures applied to the Morizo Edition, which cumulatively shed 30kg from the vehicle’s kerb weight compared with the GTS.
The removal of the rear seats reduces over 10kg of weight, with various damping and silencing material and the rear wiper and motor deleted further shedding weight. The lightweight 18-inch BBS®3 forged alloy wheels also help reduce mass.
Morizo Editions adopt a roof made from carbon fibre reinforced plastic, which not only reduces weight by 2.5kg but lowers the vehicle’s centre of gravity by lightening the upper areas of the vehicle.
Other weight-saving measures include removing the steering wheel heater, parking sensors and wireless charger4, and changing the dual-zone air conditioner to a single-zone unit.
Inside the vehicle, the Morizo Edition adds a number of race-inspired touches to assist in high-speed driving and cornering.
