Latvala, who was second to world champion Sebastien Ogier at last month's season-opener in Monte Carlo, edged out Hyundai duo, Thierry Neuville and Dani Sordo.
Ogier, driving a Ford after the withdrawal of Volkswagen from the 2017 championship, was fifth ahead of Friday's first full day which features seven stages.
