Ever heard of the Toyota Mark X? Or the Toyota Harrier? Maybe from the Prius? At least the latter should also be known in Europe. The tuner GRMN (Gazoo Racing Masters of Nürburgring), also unknown here, has taken on these models and pimped up the actually boring Japanese. For the sedan of the Mark X there is a new bumper and a roof made of carbon.

Added to this is a new rear spoiler and chic 19 inch alloy wheels and a sports suspension. The brakes have also been redesigned and the interior gets a sportier flair through the use of Alcantara and noble piano lacquer. Sufficient power is provided by the V6 engine with decent 316PS which are delivered by means of six-speed manual transmission to the rear wheels.
A Torsen limited-slip differential helps to bring the power to the road so that the power does not fizzle out when cornering. The model, Toyota Harrier, was also revised and got a sports suspension, sportier brakes and a new front section including a revised interior. The Toyota Prius Alpha has been tuned in a similar way: front bumper, interior design including sports seats and silver stitching are part of the customization. GRMN will officially present the three models by the 2015 Tokyo Auto Salon at the latest.
