Hmmmm I can't see them giving up on GR vehicles just yet. It gives them far too much hype within the car world and the GR cars have mostly been a great success.
Factor in that they've leaped in to the GR branding with every model now having a "GR Sport" trim level and they'd be mad to give up on GRs.

Probably. The badge will get diluted with cooking models of ordinary cars. Other makers do it too. I'd hope there's a few more in it yet but with regs as they are the UK won't see them.

New models will come, when the old ones fade out.

They always said, they want a 3 sporty vehicles lineup.
With the GR Corolla this is complete for all markets.

No more ICE GR maybe.

Electric GR models may get a different nomenclature ?

I think they’ve exhausted their current models. They would needs to bring back the MR2 or Celica for it to work IMO.
