Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) has announced that it is once again offering the Vios One Make Race (OMR) car for retail to the general public. Starting this month, motoring enthusiasts can now purchase their very own Vios racecar for only PHP 1,400,000. The brand-new Vios OMR units, which are of the same build as the racecars used at the Vios Racing Festival (VRF), can be ordered in all 70 Toyota dealerships nationwide.
Purchasing a Vios OMR unit at the special SRP of 1.4 million automatically enlists its owner to race at the circuit format of the VRF starting this November, under Promotional Class. For buyers who will purchase after the 2019 season ends, they can join the 2020 season.
“By making the Vios OMR available to the public, Toyota is helping to promote the grassroots motorsports scene by making it a more inclusive sport for all racing fans,” said TMP First Vice President Ms. Cristina Arevalo.
“This new generation of the Vios racecar is a good entry point to the world of motorsports because of its signature Quality, Durability, and Reliability. Instead of simply being spectators, future owners are encouraged to enroll at the Toyota Racing School and participate in the upcoming legs of our Vios Racing Festival series,” she added.
The Vios OMR shares the same powerful frame as the regular Vios G variant, with a 1.5L engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. It produces a maximum output of 106 hp at 6,000 rpm and 140 Nm of torque at 4,200rpm.
