Toyota Teases GR Celica with Potential 2.0-Liter Turbo Engine Ahead of 2027 WRC Regulations
SYNTHETIC FUELS
Toyota has leaked video of the GR Celica, showcasing a two-door coupe design with a tall rear wing. The car will feature a transversely-mounted engine and all-wheel drive. Reports indicate it may use a new 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four engine, producing 400 horsepower, potentially shared with the next-gen Supra.
The upcoming GR Celica is tied to 2027 WRC regulations, replacing the GR Yaris. Concerns arise over whether the production model will adopt the 2.0-liter engine instead of Toyota's current 1.6-liter used in rallying. The company is also focusing on synthetic fuels with Exxon Mobil's assistance.
