About the Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 #18 T. Katsuta / A. Johnston Rally Monte Carlo 2025 IXO 1:43
TL;DR: IXO's 1:43 diecast Toyota GR Yaris Rally1 #18 reproduces Takamoto Katsuta and Aaron Johnston's 2025 Rally Monte Carlo entry for Toyota Gazoo Racing. This companion casting pairs naturally with the team's #69 sister car from the same event.
Toyota fields multiple crews under one factory banner, and this #18 casting represents the other half of that pairing at the same 2025 season opener.
A Companion Casting Within Toyota's Rally1 Lineup
IXO's diecast construction renders the Rally1 hybrid-era bodywork with the same boxy, heavily vented surfacing across every liveried variant it produces, and the #18 casting shares that base tooling with its #69 teammate while carrying Katsuta and Johnston's specific sponsor markings and number board. At 1:43, the compact scale makes displaying two or more team liveries from a single event genuinely practical, something a 1:18 pairing would demand considerably more shelf space to achieve. The front splitter, rear wing, and vented hood detailing hold up under close inspection despite the small footprint, a hallmark of IXO's long experience with this specific subject category.
Katsuta and Johnston's Role at Toyota Gazoo Racing
Takamoto Katsuta and co-driver Aaron Johnston have campaigned for Toyota Gazoo Racing alongside the team's other crews, and a Rally Monte Carlo entry marks their participation in the traditional season-opening event. Pairing this casting with its #69 counterpart lets a collector display the full factory effort from one specific rally rather than a single car in isolation, a completeness that matters more to WRC collectors than to buyers of standalone road-car models. It is a subject built for the collector already committed to following Toyota's season rather than the casual browser.
