Toyota says this special Prius is meant to pay homage to the iconic race. The hybrid hatchback was fitted with many motorsport-inspired details. The modified GR Prius, called the GRius, features a carbon fiber hood, rectangular rear wing and rear diffuser. The manufacturer said the aerodynamic add-ons were influenced by the GR010 Hybrid racing car, which won Le Mans in 2021 and 2022.

The GRius concept also features a wider track than the standard Prius, and black 18-inch wheels wrapped in Michelin 235/50 tires rather than the usual 195mm rubber. The front bumper received a wide rectangular grille and square LED headlight clusters, while the bonnet was replaced with carbon fiber to save weight.
