Toyota has revealed images of its Le Mans Hypercar that will debut in the FIA World Endurance Championship this year.

The Japanese manufacturer’s latest hybrid-powered prototype racer, which replaces the triple 24 Hours of Le Mans-winning Toyota TS050 Hybrid LMP1, is the first of the new breed of LMH cars to be seen in full.

Toyota previously released a set of teaser images, while the latest full-focus pictures show the car in its camouflage testing livery during a session at Paul Ricard last October.

The car, which is set to be named the Toyota GR010, is due to be officially launched in Japan on Friday morning (around 6 p.m. ET on Thursday).

The announcement will include the car’s technical details and Toyota’s six-man driver lineup for the 2021 WEC season.
