GAZOO Racing (hereinafter referred to as GR) will launch a collaboration campaign with McDonald's "Happy Meal" starting in early April.

Today, April 3, we released the collaboration movie "DREAM MATCH," which depicts the GR GT3 racing in the imaginative world of children. From April 10, the GR GT3 will appear in the Happy Meal "Tomica"*1 lineup sold at McDonald's restaurants nationwide (excluding some stores). In commemoration of this collaboration, we are also planning to hold a "GR GT3 Livery Design Contest."

  • Collaborating again this year with McDonald's "Happy Meal" to launch a campaign featuring the GR GT3.

  • Special collaboration-exclusive content includes the collaboration movie "DREAM MATCH" depicting children and the GR GT3, and the GR GT3's appearance in the Happy Meal "Tomica" toys.

  • A "GR GT3 Livery Design Contest" will be held where participants can design their dream GR GT3. Special prizes will be awarded to winners.

Following the golden GR Corolla and GR86 in 2024, and the GR Supra Safety Car in 2025, the car featured in this collaboration campaign is the GR GT3*2, which made its world premiere in December 2025.

The GR GT3 is a new racing car based on GR's new sports car, the GR GT, and complies with FIA GT3 regulations. We selected the GR GT3 for this Happy Meal collaboration campaign because we want children nationwide to feel familiar with motorsports and aspire to sports cars through the GR GT3 Tomica.
