Toyota GR Yaris Rally Concept

A new car has landed in WRC 9!

Nacon got to sit down with Toyota GAZOO Racing to give players the chance to race this staggering concept car.

Based on the well-known GR Yaris, this beast is ultra-high-performance with four-wheel drive. This will be its debut in a video game, so get ready to jump behind the wheel of a very special piece of machinery.

Co-driver mode

WRC 9 takes another step closer to the championship itself with this all-new co-driver mode.

Two online players can race in the same car, with the co-driver providing the pace notes. That includes details on the route, bends, and of course hazards.
