Yes, we don’t get the GR Yaris here in the states, but that doesn’t mean we still can’t get excited about Toyota teasing the possibility of an even faster Yaris.
Toyota Gazoo Racing announced today that it will exhibit at the 2022 Tokyo Auto Salon, scheduled for January 14-16.
Explaining the brand’s goals to “offer ever-better motorsports-bred cars,” the exhibit will feature the global unveiling of the GR GT3 (top), “a racing-dedicated concept car that incorporates the knowledge and refined technologies TGR has gained in the field of motorsport,” plus a “fully tuned” version of the GR Yaris (bottom).
The release also notes that the Word Endurance Championship-winning GR010 Hybrid will be on display, as well as a selection of parts from the current GR Heritage Parts Program.

Rumors, from friends who work at Toyota, are that they Yaris has nearly 300hp and awd. A wrx fighter.
In reply to Fueled by Caffeine :
The GR Yaris is rated at 270 hp and HKS has tuned one to 475 hp, so 300 with a warranty is believable.
The GT3 looks interesting, will it be based on a model that isn't sold overseas?
If the GT has the IS500 heart, I'll be a fan. And I'd already take a stock Yaris GR over a WRX. There are some subtle items, lower valance, that suggest a tarmac focused variant.
GT looks kind of like the Mazda Vision Coupe concept from a few years ago with a big wing tacked on.

Ask them about the GR Corolla. I keep hearing mixed bags on what we will actually get over here. Even the teaser shots from Toyota have mixed signals.

Was even considering emigrating to Mexico by golly dammit LOL but they sold their 300 car allotment like instantly.
