Toyota’s high-performance Yaris GR hot hatch has claimed the UK Car of the Year 2021 title to prevent a hat-trick of successive electric vehicle (EV) award wins.
The 260PS, all-wheel-drive hatchback, developed by the team behind the Japanese carmaker’s Gazoo Racing rally team, claimed this year’s title following wins from the Tesla Model 3 and Jaguar I-Pace in the previous two years.
It was announced as the annual awards’ winner a week after the winners of 12 categories were revealed, forming a shortlist for the overall win.
Describing the reasoning behind the Yaris’ win, Jonny Smith, host of The Late Brake Show and one of 29 car journalist judges of the UK Car of the Year title, said: “Uncompromised, motorsport-chasing cars of this calibre come along so seldom these days.”
Get A Detailed Look At The Nissan Ariya Electric Crossover ++ Is it the model that will give Nissan a leading position in the EV segment? It certainly has a lot going for it.

However, since then, even though it has launched an all new and much better Leaf that’s still selling well, it has kind of lost its position as an EV leader, so a lot is riding on the new Ariya crossover’s shoulders.
