For a couple of years now, you can rent or as the current terminology goes, subscribe to an array of amazingly pristine and restored examples of classic Toyotas from the Kinto Vintage Club in Japan. Adding to a lineup that includes a TE27 Corolla Levin, a Z10 Soarer, and an A80 Supra is one fine off-roading legend.

The smallest member of the growing Toyota Land Cruiser family is coming soon if solid reports by Japanese auto source Best Car Web, as well as separate trademark filings, are anything to go by.

The 2021 Toyota GR Yaris is a future classic for sure and much has been talked about its hair-raising performance.

The most interesting of the bunch would be the Mazda 6, leading the Mazda CX-5, Mazda 2 (speculated September 2021), and Mazda CX-3 (expected June 2022).

While Toyota may be busy working on several new SUVs (Corolla Cross, new C-Segment SUV), the Japanese manufacturer is also said to be working on the GR Corolla, based on the Corolla Sport hatchback. According to Creative311, the GR Corolla will likely be aimed at markets where the GR Yaris isn’t sold, e.g. North America.
