The Toyota Prius has been a fixture of the SuperGT grid for a decade now, but it's set to drop off the grid in 2023 in favour of a 'brand new' model:
The Prius has been part of the Japanese sportscar series’ lower GT300 class since it was first introduced in 2012, complete with a hybrid system, but it will be replaced by a new Toyota model currently being developed by apr for 2023.
“Because of the way the regulations are, we’re not going to do the same thing again. It’s not a GR86, not a Supra, not a Prius, it will be something brand new, something that will be fun to look at, like, ‘wow, look at that!’” The revised model failed to score a point in its first season and has largely struggled ever since, although the #31 car of Saga and Yuhki Nakayama won last year at Autopolis following a Balance of Performance break that was reversed for the very next race.
