Toyota’s hot hatch is a compelling lease in August 2025

The GR Corolla is a car some never thought Toyota would actually make. August’s lease prices might have more than one enthusiast jumping into the driver’s seat. For August, you can lease a GR Corolla for $563 per month with $3,213 due at signing. You’ll be on the hook for a 36-month lease with 12,000 miles allotted per year, and stepping down to 10,000 miles annually knocks that payment down to $554 per month. This figure doesn’t include taxes and fees, so your payment might be a bit higher.

Prefer $0 down on your GR Corolla lease?

By spreading the $3,213 due at signing across the lease term, we can estimate what a GR Corolla lease looks like with $0 down. You’re adding about $89.25 to your monthly payment, bringing the new total to $652.25. With 10,000 miles per year, the new payment ends up at $643.25. This isn’t an official $0 estimate, and your payment will be higher after fees and taxes. For the best and most current offers, check out Toyota’s website for deals and incentives for the GR Corolla.

More about the GR Corolla

The GR Corolla is one of the best “entry-level enthusiast” rides you can buy today. Its perky 300-horsepower, turbocharged 1.6-liter three-cylinder engine gets even more torque for the 2025 model year at 295 pound-feet. You can also now choose from a standard manual transmission or a new automatic transmission, the latter of which adds launch control.

Further revisions include slight exterior design changes, reconfigured suspension geometry, and an available head-up display in the Premium Plus trim. However, even without the HUD (the lease price quoted is for the base car), the GR Corolla is big on excitement and far from a dull, uninspiring vehicle to sit in. The entry-level GR Corolla Core comes packed with goodies, including a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, an 8.0-inch screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and grippy sport bucket seats covered in black fabric. We’ve reviewed the automatic Corolla both during a track drive and in day-to-day driving conditions, and it’s a bundle of fun no matter where you find yourself.

Final thoughts

The GR Corolla offers a great balance between performance, price, and features. Starting at around $40,000 puts it well under the Civic Type R and Golf R but a bit above the Hyundai Elantra N, and that’s exactly where it belongs. August’s lease offer makes getting behind the wheel manageable for enthusiasts with a little bit of cash to spare. Sharing little with the standard Corolla it’s based on unfortunately extends to pricing, but the GR Corolla is still one of the best bangs for your buck when it comes to sporty daily drivers.
