Something Special Is Hatching in New Zealand
Toyota GR Yaris Rally Cup NZ | X Shift Sequential Gearboxes✔️ X Shift Gearboxes will supply every car in the 2027 Toyota GR Yaris Rally Cup New Zealand with its 5-speed sequential gearbox, powering the next generation of rally talent✔️
Not every great story from New Zealand begins with a ring. Some begin with perfectly engineered dog rings.
The Toyota GR Yaris Rally Cup New Zealand launches in 2027, and X Shift Gearboxes is proud to help write the next chapter.
When people think of New Zealand, images of towering mountains, endless gravel roads and cinematic landscapes often come to mind. For many, it will always be synonymous with Middle-earth. But from 2027, rally fans will have another reason to look towards this remarkable country.
The Toyota GR Yaris Rally Cup New Zealand has been officially announced, creating an exciting and affordable pathway for the next generation of rally drivers. Built around one of the most exciting performance cars of the modern era—the Toyota GR Yaris—the championship promises close competition, equal machinery and a professional environment where driver talent, rather than budget, makes the difference.
And we're delighted to announce that every competing car will be equipped with our 5-speed Toyota GR Yaris sequential gearbox.
For us, this project represents far more than supplying another set of gearboxes.
Being selected for an entire national championship is a tremendous vote of confidence in our engineering, our product, and the people behind it. We are honoured to be part of it.
A new championship is ready to begin.
...the sound you'll hear won't be the call of adventure from a fantasy tale.
It will be the unmistakable click of an X Shift sequential gearbox charging towards the next stage.
Welcome to the Toyota GR Yaris Rally Cup New Zealand!
Keep X Shifting forward!
