Toyota first showcased the potential of hydrogen engines in rallying in 2022 when the GR Yaris H2 completed demonstration runs on Ypres Rally in Belgium and a year later at the Circuit de la Sarthe in northwestern France.

Since the GR H2 Racing Concept was presented to preview a potential future hydrogen category at Le Mans in 2023, Toyota has intensified the development of the technology, reaching a further milestone with the unveiling of the liquid hydrogen-powered GR LH2 Racing Concept last year at Le Mans.
