This week, on Rich With Cars, I take a closer look at the all-new 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit Edition, one of the most anticipated hot hatches of the year. I start with an overview of the exterior, which is both aggressive and stylish, with a widebody kit, a large rear spoiler, and a triple exhaust system.

Next, I move on to the interior, which is surprisingly spacious and comfortable for a hot hatch. The front seats are supportive and bolstered, and the rear seats offer enough legroom for two adults. The cargo area could be bigger, but it makes the GR Corolla a practical everyday car.

Under the hood, the GR Corolla is powered by a turbocharged 1.6-liter three-cylinder engine that produces 300 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque. This engine is paired with a six-speed manual transmission and all-wheel drive.

On the road, the GR Corolla is an absolute blast to drive. It's incredibly agile and responsive, and the engine pulls strongly all the way to redline. The all-wheel drive system provides excellent traction in all conditions, and the manual transmission is a joy to shift.

To get the owner's perspective, I interviewed the owner of the GR Corolla in this video. He talks about what he loves about his car, what he would change, and why he thinks it's one of the best hot hatches on the market.

If you're looking for a fun and affordable hot hatch, the 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit Edition is a must-consider. It's everything you could ask for in a hot hatch, with a powerful engine, agile handling, and a comfortable interior.
