Yahoo Autos Gorgeous Toyota GR GT3 race concept will spawn a sports car for the road
Not only is Toyota's achingly beautiful GR GT3 concept being developed as a race car, there's a road version in the works as well. This confirmation comes straight from the top of Toyota's World Endurance Championship race team.
Speaking with Motorsport.com, WEC team director Rob Leupen said that the GR GT3 will begin racing in Europe in 2026. It was previously thought that the sleek racer would target new WEC GT3 rules that go into effect in 2024 with a 2025 debut, but it now appears the launch will be delayed by one season. But there's a good reason for the deferment, as Leupen told Motorsport.
"The date is in alignment with the road car side, which is following the philosophy of Toyota to have a motorsport-bred car on the road. This is moving forward at the moment."
