Toyota has added a new model to its growing GR lineup in the form of the 2023 GR Corolla. The hot hatch combines a 300-hp inline-3, 6-speed manual, and all-wheel drive, and is due to start sales later this year.
Toyota has also announced a one-make race series for the U.S., built around its GR86 sports car. To be called the GR Cup, the new series kicks off next year and will host seven rounds in the inaugural season.
Mercedes-Benz started sales of a redesigned S-Class last year, and now the high-performance version from Mercedes-Benz AMG has been spotted testing. This time the super sedan is expected to feature a plug-in hybrid powertrain delivering close to 700 hp—and a more powerful version with over 800 hp is expected at a later date.
