The Toyota GR Yaris ‘Rallye Edition’ is asking a 36% premium over the regular. What’s so special?

April 13, 2021 By Keith Leave a Comment

An informative post about Penang.

Toyota Australia was one of the first markets in the world to begin order-taking of the exhilarating GR Yaris hot-hatch back in September 2020. The first 1,000 units of the regular GR Yaris was snapped up within a week, thanks to an incredibly attractive price of AU$39,950 (RM120,000) which equated to a savings of nearly AU$10,000.

Demand for pocket rocket has not waned, as Toyota Australia has now officially launched the Australia-special GR Yaris Rallye Edition, which sees an on-the-road price tag of AU$54,500 (RM172,000).

African Union

For context, a MINI JCW 3-door hatch retails for about AU$59,400, while in Malaysia, it is priced from RM295,000.

So, what does the extra AU$14,500 (or AU$5,000 if one placed the booking today, as the current pricing for the regular GR Yaris is now AU$49,500) gets you in the Rallye Edition? Similar to the Performance Pack variant offered by UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT) priced at RM286,896, the GR Yaris Rallye replaces the Dunlop SP Sport Maxx tyres to higher grip Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres paired with lightweight BBS forged rims, the addition of Torsen limited-slip differential (LSD) on both axles, as well as circuit driving-oriented suspension tuning.

Cooling ducts are also punched into the front bumper to cool the disc brakes and red-painted calipers, a feature unique only to the GR Yaris Rallye / Performance Pack edition. The locally-requested black-painted ‘RALLYE’ badge is stucked on the tailgate, together with a uniquely numbered GR Yaris Rallye plaque placed at the centre console.

Australia

Buyers can only select the Platinum white pearl as their exterior paintwork with the carbon fibre roof left untouched.

Inside, the Rallye comes with an enhanced JBL 8-speaker audio system. No changes are made to the GR-branded front bucket seats, wrapped perforated Ultrasuede and highlighted by red stitching.

As for the powertrain, the Rallye edition maintains the same 272 hp / 370 Nm 1.6-litre single-scroll turbocharged three-cylinder petrol engine as the regular GR Yaris, propelling the hot-hatch from standstill to 100km/h in 5.2 seconds. These are higher outputs than the GR Yaris destined for Malaysia, with outputs of 261 hp / 360 Nm that slightly delays the century sprint time by 0.3 seconds to 5.5 seconds.

japan

Also maintained from the regular GR Yaris is the GR-Four all-wheel drive system, with Normal, Sport and Track modes apportioning the same 60:40, 30:70 and 50:50 front-to-rear torque-split respectively.

While deliveries for Malaysia-bound Toyota GR Yaris Performance Pack have begun, buyers in Australia will need to be more patient, as those who place their order today will only get their cars next year. All good things come to those who wait, perhaps.

Torsen limited

In Malaysia, the allocation of over one hundred units of Toyota GR Yaris Performance Pack has long ended. Apart from receiving one of the best hot-hatches made in recent memory, the first 65 lucky buyers from UMW Toyota Motor are also treated to a ‘Early Bird Package’ that consists of an exclusive helmet bag, a GR Yaris scale model and participation in a GR Yaris Driving Experience in 2021 to learn to enjoy the GR Yaris to the fullest.

In total, only 25,000 units of this homologation-special will be made at the GR Factory inside the Motomachi plant in Aichi, Japan. There is also no official breakdown of the split between Performance Pack / Rallye Edition and the regular GR Yaris.

Sime Darby Motors officially launches Motors City with six flagship 3S centres, costing RM570 million

April 12, 2021 By Keith Leave a Comment

A really good article about Malaysia.

For those driving along the old Subang Airport road (or Jalan Lapangan Terbang Subang) in Selangor, you would have noticed the massive building complex housing various automotive brands in Ara Damansara. Sime Darby Motors today officially launched this automotive facility housing six flagship 3S centres, touted as the largest in the Southeast Asia region.

Built at a cost of approximately RM570 million on a land size spanning 8.6 acres, the eight-level Sime Darby Motors City (SDMC) automotive complex has an overall built-up area of 1.3 million square feet and house eight automotive brands plus Sime Darby Motor’s own pre-owned car division.

Bavaria

The brands that are operating in SDMC are BMW, MINI, Porsche, Jaguar, Land Rover, Volvo, Ford and Hyundai. BMW’s Motorrad motorcycles also have a dedicated 3S facility within the Auto Bavaria section of the automotive complex.

In total, the floor space can display more than 180 vehicles, almost 200 service bays and close to 700 parking bays for customers. The complex is also a Green Building Index (GBI) certified facility with sustainability in mind and incorporates technologies to cultivate a paperless organisational culture.

car trading platform

SDMC is Malaysia’s first automotive facility that employs the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, featuring systems such as vehicle tracking management (from customer check-in to servicing), automated number plate recognition and smartphone application.

The implementation of IoT is key to ensure the delivery of world-class services to customers with greater efficiencies and a seamless experience.   

With the electric vehicle (EV) revolution already started, SDMC has its workforce trained to handle EVs plus designating special areas for EV charging, storing and repairs, which are currently available at BMW and MINI’s Auto Bavaria, Auto Hyundai, Porsche’s Auto Performance and Volvo’s Swedish Auto.

Outside of the Porsche centre, a 175kW DC fast charging station has also been installed, delivering a near-full charge to the fully electric Porsche Taycan in 36 minutes.

Apart from new vehicles, trading-in of existing vehicles can also be done with myTukar, Malaysia’s fastest growing online used car trading platform. SDMC will be myTukar’s showcase centre.

Jalan PJU

To commemorate the launch, Sime Darby Motors City will be organising a “Grand Launch Weekend” with attractive deals across the six flagship stores between 16 and 18 April 2021 (this weekend). Customers are encouraged to take advantage of the many attractive deals specifically for this weekend and capitalise on the government’s vehicle sales tax exemption which will expire on June 30th 2021.

Sime Darby Motors City is located at No.6, Jalan PJU 1A/7, Ara Damansara, 47301 Petaling Jaya, Selangor.
