From a Mad Catz press release:

Mad Catz Global Limited, a leading innovator in gaming hardware, is pleased to announce our new G.Y.R.A. gaming chair series. The G.Y.R.A. gaming chair series combines comfort and durability for a truly exceptional gaming experience. There are two versions available: The G.Y.R.A. and G.Y.R.A. C1.

The G.Y.R.A. Gaming Chair Series

Both the G.Y.R.A. and G.Y.R.A. C1 were engineered to provide for exceptional ergonomic comfort while delivering the quality and durability that is the hallmark of the Mad Catz brand. Both versions feature reclinable high-back racing seats, premium PU leather, cold-molded foam padding, comfortable neck pillows, and iconic Mad Catz branding including our name, logo, and slogan in red stitching. Furthermore, both chairs have adjustable seats and arm rests.

The G.Y.R.A.

The G.Y.R.A. features dynamic ergonomics with an automatically adjusting lumbar support feature built into the seatback. This feature helps alleviate the discomfort some gamers feel when sitting for extended periods. Additionally, the 4D armrests allow for gamers to obtain a better chair position relative to their gaming station—a significant advantage over the non-adjustable arm rests on most gaming chairs. The G.Y.R.A. also has a multi-function ‘frog tilt’ mechanism which allows for precise adjustments to your sitting position. The large 75mm nylon caster wheels and solid metal base provide good support and mobility on all surfaces. The G.Y.R.A. has a class 4 gas lift that supports up to 150 kg / 330 lbs. Finally, the G.Y.R.A. comes with a Mad Catz branded memory foam neck pillow for added comfort.

The G.Y.R.A. C1

The G.Y.R.A. C1 features a two-tone black and red color scheme, 50mm nylon caster wheels, 2D armrests, and a Mad Catz branded foam neck pillow. The C1 also comes with an adjustable lumbar support pillow for added comfort and enhanced ergonomics. The G.Y.R.A. C1 sports the ‘butterfly tilt’ mechanism for improved control over your sitting angle and seat position. The nylon base and class 4 gas lift provide support up to 130 kg / 287 lbs.
