Take one 300 hp Toyota GR Corolla. Transplant its drivetrain into a GR86. Add some wings, lights and cool exhausts. Future motoring icon born.

Everything you need to know about the Toyota GR86 Rally Legacy Concept at the 2024 SEMA tuning show in Las Vegas – and why it's inspired by the Celica GT-Four

In a world with Lamborghini Huracán Sterratos and Porsche 911 Dakars, why not a Toyota GR86 with serious off-road chops? That’s probably the question the Japanese automaker was asking, although the answer it has come up with will not go beyond this week’s SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

Inspired by the Celica GT-Four and with GR Corolla underpinnings, Toyota has created the ultimate GR86 – but you can’t buy one

Japanese carmaker Toyota transformed a 2024 GR86 with the Performance Package into a modern-day replica of the Celica GT-Four

Evasive Motorsports stuffed the Toyota GR Corolla's 300-hp three-cylinder and all-wheel-drive system into this nostalgic GR86 build for SEMA.

What is perhaps more interesting is the mechanical package of the concept. Instead of the 2.0-liter flat-4 and rear-wheel drive of the stock GR86, Toyota has dropped in the turbocharged 1.5-liter inline-3 and all-wheel-drive system from the current GR Corolla hot hatch.

Debuting at the SEMA show, the RAV-X takes the RAV4 to the extreme with a fully revised suspension and tough-looking bodywork.

The opening day of the 2024 SEMA Show in Las Vegas was a hotbed of automotive excitement, and Toyota certainly did not disappoint with its GR86 Rally Legacy Concept. This isn’t just some shiny new paint job.
