The architecture places electrical drive on the front axle and combustion drive at the rear, giving the car effective all-wheel drive under power recovery phases. Toyota introduced the platform for the 2021 WEC season, and it has remained the team's sole Hypercar entry through 2025, running as both No. 7 and No. 8.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"story\"\u003eBuemi, Hartley and Hirakawa — One of Endurance Racing's Most Established Trios\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince 2022 Sébastien Buemi (Switzerland), Brendon Hartley (New Zealand) and Ryo Hirakawa (Japan) have shared the No. 8 Toyota GR010 Hybrid in WEC competition, forming one of the longest-standing driver line-ups in contemporary top-level endurance racing. Buemi brings Formula E and multiple WEC campaign experience; Hartley adds a Formula 1 career and prior Le Mans class victories; Hirakawa joined Toyota's factory programme after winning the 2021 Super Formula championship. The 2025 Le Mans entry is the continuation of a partnership now spanning several WEC seasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"scale-model\"\u003eIXO Models at \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e: Die-Cast Precision on the GR010\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIXO Models, a French-owned manufacturer with an extensive catalogue of officially licensed motorsport replicas at \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e and \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:18\u003c\/span\u003e, produces this replica in die-cast metal.
