Yeah, it looks like the Tatuus chassis!
It might be the same car that races in the Toyota Racing Series, in New Zealand: http://www.toyotaracing.co.nz/Default.aspx?pageid=5 |

Could well be, the back of the sidepods don't look the same as the FRenault 2.0l cars, I don't think.
Edit: But having had a look at the gallery on the Toyota Racing Series website, the front of their cars look totally different. |

Yes, they do look different. Probably the same chassis with different bodywork and wings.
The rear wing endplate is different in the photo posted here, and there seems to be a cooling chimney on the sidepod. |
