Toyota Aqua GR Sport Specifications

Aqua GR Sport uses a 1.5L M15A-FXE three-cylinder hybrid system with 91 PS from the petrol engine and an 80 PS electric motor, producing 116 PS system output. The electric motor produces 141 Nm, while Toyota does not publish a combined system-torque figure.

The GR Sport is not dramatically faster than a normal Aqua. Its main performance upgrades are the specially tuned suspension, strengthened body structure, sharper steering response and stronger chassis control. Independent published figures generally place 0–100 km/h around 10.5–11 seconds. The brakes use ventilated front discs and rear drums with ABS, EBD and Brake Assist.

For normal Bangladesh driving, a healthy Aqua GR Sport can realistically return around 21–25 km/L in city traffic, 25–29 km/L on highways and approximately 23–27 km/L combined.

The latest 2026 GR Sport is officially rated around 30.7 km/L WLTC, with the 17-inch wheels and sportier chassis setup making it less economical than the most efficient standard Aqua grades.

Dhaka congestion, continuous AC use, aggressive acceleration, tyre pressure, passenger load and driving style can reduce real-world mileage.

Yes, Aqua is available in all 3 conditions mostly, so you can find your preferred condition within budget.

GR Sport is not simply an Aqua with a body kit.

It receives GR-specific suspension tuning, additional chassis reinforcement, dedicated steering calibration, sportier seats, aluminum pedals, GR-specific wheels, larger 205/45R17 tyres and unique exterior styling.

The GR Sport also remains FWD rather than offering E-Four. Its purpose is to make the Aqua feel more controlled and responsive rather than substantially more powerful.

Yes, but its 140 mm ground clearance means you need to be careful on Bangladesh's larger speed breakers and deep potholes.

The 17-inch 205/45R17 tyres and sportier suspension provide sharper road behaviour, but they also make careful driving over damaged roads more important.

For Dhaka, Chattogram and other cities with mostly paved roads, the compact dimensions are useful. On severely broken rural roads, large potholes and tall unmarked speed breakers require extra caution.

Yes. Despite the GR badge, it remains a compact hybrid designed around everyday usability.

The electric motor gives smooth low-speed response, the e-CVT eliminates conventional gear changes, and the compact 1695 mm width makes it easy to manoeuvre through narrow streets.

The 5.3-metre turning radius is slightly larger than standard Aqua specifications, but the car remains easy to park. The hybrid drivetrain also works particularly well in stop-start traffic.

Routine maintenance is generally manageable, with regular costs involving engine oil, filters, brake inspection, tyres, suspension and air-conditioning servicing.

The GR Sport's 17-inch 205/45R17 tyres can cost more to replace than the smaller tyres used by ordinary Aqua grades. The hybrid battery, inverter, cooling system and 12V battery should also be inspected carefully on a reconditioned car.

Check the auction sheet, chassis number, mileage, accident history and repair history first.

Then inspect the hybrid battery, inverter, engine, cooling system, brakes, suspension and steering.

Pay particular attention to the 17-inch wheels and low-profile tyres because potholes can cause wheel or tyre damage.

Also test the Toyota Safety Sense functions, cameras, parking sensors, infotainment, AC, smart key, push-button start and all electrical equipment.

A proper test drive should confirm smooth acceleration, stable cornering, straight-line braking and the absence of warning lights.

The biggest drawbacks are low 140 mm ground clearance, relatively limited rear space, higher tyre costs and modest outright acceleration.

The GR Sport improves handling rather than turning the Aqua into a genuinely fast car.

Its 17-inch tyres and firmer sport-oriented suspension can also make rough roads feel less forgiving than a standard Aqua.

The higher Bangladesh price is another consideration because you are paying for chassis tuning, styling and equipment rather than a larger engine.
