Chronology
PredecessorToyota Supra (A80)

The Toyota GR Supra (model code J29/DB or A90/A91 for marketing purposes) is a sports car produced by Toyota since 2019. The fifth-generation Supra, the GR Supra was sold under and developed by Toyota Gazoo Racing (TGR) brand in collaboration with BMW. It is the successor of the A80 Supra, which ceased production in 2002.

The GR Supra rides on a platform developed by Toyota and BMW, with a short wheelbase, wide track, and low centre of gravity, that also underpins the G29 BMW Z4.[10][11] Initially, BMW considered using a pre-existing platform of their own to underpin the new Supra, but chief engineer Tetsuya Tada declined.[12] Both cars are manufactured at the Magna Steyr plant in Graz, Austria.[13]

The fifth-generation Supra uses BMW model code conventions, designated as a J29 series with DB model codes. However, Toyota used the "A90" and "A91" code for promotional and marketing materials for the fifth-generation Supra to maintain continuity from previous Supra generations.[1][2][14]

Development

[edit]

Motor Trend had reported that a possible Supra successor could be based on the FT-HS (Future Toyota-Hybrid Sport),[15] which debuted at the 2007 North American International Auto Show. The publication also reported that the fifth generation of the Supra could be powered by a 3.5-litre V-6 hybrid system generating over 298 kW (400 hp; 405 PS). Toyota quoted that it was not rushing for the Supra successor but instead was waiting to see how the sales and interests of the GT86/FR-S went.[16]

In 2010, Toyota applied for a trademark for the Supra name. The trademark had to be used within three years for it to be valid.[17] In December 2011, Autoguide reported a possible Supra replacement that would sit above the GT86.[18] Tetsuya Tada, the chief engineer of the Toyota 86/Scion FR-S told reporters in Germany in 2012 "the president (Akio Toyoda) has asked me to make a successor to the Supra as soon as possible."[19]

In late 2013, AutoBlog reported a Supra successor concept would be making its debut the January 2014 North American International Auto Show.[20] On 13 January, Toyota unveiled its new FT-1 concept car. Little is known about this new concept car; other than that it has a front engine and rear wheel drive layout. Toyota also stated that their new concept car draws inspiration from Toyota's past sports cars like the 2000GT, Supra, MR-2 and 2007 FT-HS concept car. Toyota did not state whether the FT-1 would use the Supra name, or if it was even bound for production. However, Toyota did state if the FT-1 is approved from production, a price tag of around US$60,000 was to be expected for each unit.[21] Upon the car's reveal, chief designer—Nobuo Nakamura—confirmed that the FT-1's design was used for inspiration for the Supra but the two cars differ in many ways. The production Supra was smaller and more of a pure sports car design, as opposed to the FT-1 being a larger grand tourer.[22] According to Akio Toyoda, the new Supra's design and performance identity were inspired by the Toyota 2000GT.[23][24] The interior design, layout, and parts (like the materials, seats, and steering wheel) were also done by Toyota, while only small interior switchgear come from BMW.[22]

On 10 February 2014, Toyota submitted an application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office to renew the Supra trademark.[25] In June 2016, a trademark application for the Supra nameplate was filed with the European Union Intellectual Property Office.[26] According to Autocar, the new Supra was set to debut in 2018.[27] The publication reported that the car would likely feature rear wheel drive; four-cylinder engines were expected to be available, and it had been confirmed that the car would offer a turbocharged inline-6 engine.[28] It was believed that these engines would be supplied by BMW.[29] Kleine Zeitung reported that the new jointly developed Supra will be produced at a Magna Steyr facility near Graz, Austria, alongside the BMW Z4 (G29).[30] Although the sports car's name was yet to be officially confirmed, Toyota global chief engineer Tetsuya Tada said that it will likely carry the nameplate Supra, due to its historical significance to the nameplate. The name decision wasn't finalized, until very later in production.[31]

On 12 July 2018, a pre-production version of the Supra was unveiled with a camouflage at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.[32] The car was confirmed to be a collaboration between Toyota and BMW with the new BMW Z4 (G29), but that the Supra is intended to be "much more hardcore and track-focused".[33] Additionally, it was noted that the Supra was specifically engineered for an ideal 50–50 front-rear weight distribution.[34][35] Tada also disclosed that the Supra was developed with benchmarking against the Porsche Cayman S (982), akin to the previous generation Supra's rivalry with the Porsche 968.[33][36][37][38]

Launch

[edit]

The fifth-generation Supra was unveiled at the January 2019 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.[39][40][41] The launch marked a 17-year hiatus since the previous generation was last sold. It was unveiled by Toyota CEO Akio Toyoda, who announced the Supra was tuned and developed with extensive testing at the Nürburgring, and how its performance and design lineage can be traced to the famed 2000GT.[42] Two-time Formula 1 champion and Toyota Gazoo Racing driver Fernando Alonso was also present to help launch the Supra.[43][44] The European launch was held at the 2019 Geneva International Motor Show.[45]

The first production model was auctioned at a price of US$2.1 million at a Barrett-Jackson auction to Craig Jackson (chairman and CEO of the Barrett-Jackson auction house) in January 2019, with 100% of the money going to the American Heart Association and the Bob Woodruff Foundation.[46][47] The auction car has a one-off matte grey exterior colour which is not offered on the standard Supra, as well as a red interior, metallic black five-bolt wheels, red wing mirrors, a signature from Toyota CEO Akio Toyoda on the dashboard and VIN 20201.[48]

The Supra went on sale in Japan on 17 May 2019. In the United States, sales began on 22 July 2019 with a starting base price tag of US$49,990.[49] In Australia, sales began on 2 September 2019.[50]

Engineering and specifications

[edit]

Powertrains

[edit]
Inline-six BMW B58B30C engine in 3.0 models
Inline-four BMW B48B20 engine in 2.0 models

The Supra is powered by two BMW-sourced engine options: a turbocharged B48 2.0-litre inline-four or a turbocharged B58 3.0-litre inline-six. The 2.0-litre engine was initially offered in Japan, some Asian countries and Europe;[51] the United States received the engine in 2020 for the 2021 model year.[52] The 2.0-litre engine has a power output of 145–190 kW (194–255 hp; 197–258 PS) from 4,500 to 6,500 rpm or 5,000 to 6,500 rpm and 320–400 N⋅m (236–295 lbf⋅ft) of torque from 1,450 to 4,200 rpm or 1,550 to 4,400 rpm, while the 3.0-litre engine has a power output of 250–285 kW (335–382 hp; 340–387 PS) from 5,000 to 6,500 rpm or 5,800 to 6,500 rpm and 495–500 N⋅m (365–369 lbf⋅ft) from 1,600 to 4,500 rpm or 1,800 to 5,000 rpm. The 2.0 L model can accelerate from 0–97 km/h (0–60 mph) in 5.2–6.5 seconds, while the 3.0 L model can accelerate from 0–97 km/h (0–60 mph) in 3.9–4.1 seconds, 0.7–0.5 seconds quicker than the turbocharged variant of the A80 Supra and has an electronically limited top speed of 249 km/h (155 mph).[53]

Drivetrains

[edit]
6-speed manual transmission offered from 2023 onwards

Power is sent to the rear wheels through a ZF 8HP 8-speed automatic transmission that was fully re-calibrated by Toyota, who added also their software to the gearbox for the Supra.[54] Toyota initially considered to give the new Supra a dual-clutch automatic transmission, but went with the ZF 8HP for its smoothness, reliability, and weight savings.[55] A manual transmission was initially not offered, due to the torque-converter automatic having quicker shifts, its ability to handle a lot of torque with self-awareness on its aftermarket potential, and wanting to differentiate it from the 86.

A specialized ZF S6-53 (GS6L50TZ) 6-speed manual transmission option was made available in 2022 for the 2023 model year for the six-cylinder engine only.[56] Like the automatic, the manual transmission was built from a combination of ZF parts and custom Toyota parts, but receives a rev-matching function and a shorter final drive ratio compared to the automatic.[57]

Performance

[edit]

A test conducted by Car and Driver in December 2019 recorded the acceleration of the 3.0 L model from 0–97 km/h (0–60 mph) in 3.7 seconds (with 1-foot rollout), which is 0.3 seconds faster than the factory claimed. The 402 m (1⁄4 mile) time was also recorded in 12.2 seconds at 183 km/h (114 mph).[58][59] A test in August 2020 recorded the acceleration of the 2.0 L model from 0–97 km/h (0–60 mph) in 4.7 seconds and a 402 m (1⁄4 mile) time of 13.3 seconds at 167 km/h (104 mph).[60]

Power output testing by Car and Driver magazine in May 2019 and May 2020 showed that Toyota had significantly underrated the power output of both versions of the 3.0 L engine by at least 5–8 per cent. The 2020 US model year B58 3.0 L engine was rated at 250 kW (335 hp) and 495 N⋅m (365 lb⋅ft), yet in dynamometer testing by Car and Driver magazine, the 2020 model year Supra had a power output of 257 kW (345 hp) and 555 N⋅m (409 lb⋅ft) at the wheels. Similarly, the 2021 onwards model year engine was rated at 285 kW (382 hp) and 499 N⋅m (368 lb⋅ft), yet test results showed 289 kW (388 hp) and 571 N⋅m (421 lb⋅ft) at the wheels. The power at the engine's crankshaft is the standardized calculation manufacturers use to rate engine power, therefore since a dynamometer measures these power outputs at the wheels, these figures are also typically 5–8 per cent higher at the crankshaft on a modern performance car when accounting for driveline loss. Car and Driver's testing therefore revealed that the Supra was making, at the very least, 22 kW (30 hp) more power and 54 N⋅m (40 lb⋅ft) more torque at the crankshaft than the factory claimed for both versions of the 3.0 engine, so the later 3.0 model is likely producing over 306 kW (410 hp) and over 624 N⋅m (460 lb⋅ft).[61][62]

German magazine Sport Auto set a lap time in August 2019 on the Nürburgring Nordschleife with a 2020 GR Supra on factory Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres of 7:52.17 minutes.[63][64]

Engineering

[edit]

Before production, Toyota wanted to develop and engineer a rear-wheel drive pure sports car that would compete against the Porsche Cayman S (982) and be a track and street weapon, all while avoiding supercar prices, while BMW wanted to build a roadster, which gave them the idea of co-developing an all-new platform that would handle both coupe and convertible variants with great rigidity and handling of torque. The platform takes few elements from BMW's M cars that were praised by both Toyota and BMW for their characteristics, such as the suspension design, forged control arms and electronic differential, all while being able to reduce costs for production and the final product.[65] After co-developing the platform together, Toyota and BMW went to develop the rest of the two cars separately, such as chassis development, exterior and interior designs, and tuning of both drivetrain and suspension.[66] For example, on the Supra, the side sills are significantly wider and stiffer, there is more chassis bracing, and Toyota moved the engine backwards in the engine bay for better weight distribution.[67][35] The fake vents on the car's exterior were also leftovers from its race car prototype, and were designed for the aftermarket car community (who were responsible for the previous generation's cult following) to make them functional.[68]

Markets

[edit]

Japan

[edit]

The Supra is offered in three trim levels, which are the SZ, SZ-R and RZ. The SZ model is powered by the 145 kW (194 hp; 197 PS) 2.0-litre engine and is equipped with 17-inch single tone wheels, manual seats, black fabric upholstery, dark silver trim and a 4-speaker sound system. The SZ-R model is powered by the 190 kW (255 hp; 258 PS) variation of the 2.0-litre engine and is equipped with 18-inch two tone wheels, eight-way powered seats, Alcantara/black leather upholstery, carbon fibre trim, 8.8-inch touchscreen multimedia system with 12-speaker JBL stereo sound system and a head-up display. The RZ model is powered by the 3.0-litre engine and is equipped with 19-inch two tone wheels. It also has the same interior equipments as the SZ-R model, with the difference being the use of Alcantara/red leather upholstery (black leather is available as an option) and sports pedals. A "Sport" mode and dual-zone climate control system, as well as the Toyota Supra Connect infotainment system is standard on all three trim levels. They are also equipped with Toyota Supra Safety suite, which features autonomous emergency braking, lane departure alert, blind spot monitor, adaptive cruise control and rear-cross traffic alert. GR Parts is also available, which includes the Toyota Gazoo Racing Recorder, which allows drivers to log their driving data to an SD card. This can be supplemented by using an optional dashcam, which synchronises the video with recorded information.[69]

United States

[edit]

The GR Supra was originally offered in the US in two variants, the 3.0 and 3.0 Premium. The 3.0 variant has a 6.5-inch centre touchscreen multimedia system with Bluetooth and standard Alcantara trimmed seats, while the 3.0 Premium has a larger touchscreen multimedia system (8.8-inches), standard navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay, 12-speaker JBL stereo sound system, wireless phone charging, colour head-up display and heated leather seats. All variants have collision warning, automatic high beams, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane departure warning and a feature that recognizes road signs as standard.[70]

In 2020, for the 2021 model year, two new models, the A91 Edition and the 2.0, was introduced. For the 3.0, 3.0 Premium, and A91 Edition, the output of the 3-litre engine was increased to 285 kW (382 hp) and 499 N⋅m (368 lb⋅ft) of torque. This increase in power is due to revised engine tuning, 10.2:1 compression ratio, and a six-port cylinder head and six-port turbo manifold, as opposed to the 11:1 compression ratio, two-port version for the 2020 model year. Additionally for the 2021 model year, the rear suspension bushings were updated and chassis stiffening bars were added to the engine bay. The 2.0 will feature the same 2-litre engine used in the SZ and SZ-R models sold in Japan, and is rated at 190 kW (255 hp) and 400 N⋅m (295 lb⋅ft) of torque.[71][72][73]

In 2022, for the 2023 model year, the Supra 3.0 and 3.0 Premium became available with a 6-speed manual transmission.[74]

In 2024, for the 2025 model year, the 2.0 litre engine was dropped.[75]

Special Editions

[edit]

At launch in the US, Toyota announced they would release a special edition for each model year of the fifth-generation Supra's release cycle. To date, all special editions are based on the 3.0 Premium, and offer distinct details from standard models, while being produced in limited quantities.

In 2019, for the 2020 model year, the first 1,500 cars produced for the US were released as special Launch Edition variants and are offered in three colours: Absolute Zero White, Nocturnal Black and Renaissance Red 2.0.[76] Cars that have the white or black exterior colour have the same red interior as the auction car, which is only offered in the Launch Edition, while the red cars have a black interior. All Launch Edition cars have red coloured wing mirrors, all-black wheels, and an individually-numbered carbon fibre plaque with a replica of Akio Toyoda's signature fixed to the dashboard, mirroring the auction car.[70]

2021 A91 Edition Supra in Refraction Blue

In 2020, for the 2021 model year, a new A91 Edition was released, marking the updated platform featuring the new higher output 3-litre engine, and was limited to 1,000 units. The A91 naming implies a new model from the A90, due to the updated engine, but the chassis code remains the same. The A91 Edition is offered in two colours: an exclusive Refraction Blue and Nocturnal Black, both featuring exclusive matte black stripes on the C-pillars and a carbon fibre rear lip spoiler. It features an exclusive black leather and Alcantara interior with blue stitching and accents. It also includes matte black wheels, carbon fibre mirror caps, and a custom stitched key cover matching the interior.[77][71]

The A91-CF Edition was released in 2021, for the 2022 model year, limited to only 600 units. The A91-CF Edition is named "CF" for the special carbon fibre body kit consisting of a front splitter, side skirts, rear spats, and a rear duckbill spoiler. Additionally, matte black wheels, and a red and black leather/Alcantara interior with special stitching is included. It was released in Absolute Zero White, Nitro Yellow, and matte Phantom Gray paint colour options.[78][79]

With the launch of a new 6-speed manual transmission offering in the Supra in 2022 for the 2023 model year, a limited A91-MT Edition was released with a limited run of 500 units. In addition to the new manual transmission, it is offered in two exclusive colours, Matte White and CU Later Gray, and an exclusive Cognac tan leather interior. The A91-MT Edition also includes exclusive red badging, red GR engine bay strut brace, and Frozen Gunmetal Gray wheels.[74]

In 2023, for the 2024 model year, the 45th Anniversary Edition was released in North America with a limited run of 900 units, to mark the 45th anniversary of the launch of the first Supra, the 1978 Celica Supra. The model is offered in an exclusive Mikan Blast orange paint colour along with Absolute Zero white, and has an exclusive black side panel stripe graphic with a cutout Supra logo. It features a manually-adjustable rear spoiler which rises approximately 75 mm (3 inches) above the rear decklid, with an adjustment screw to change the angle of the spoiler for different effects on downforce per the driver's preference. The 45th Anniversary Edition also features matte-black 19-inch aluminium wheels and black painted brake callipers with a GR logo graphic. The orange colour and styling are stated by Toyota to be a tribute towards a custom Mk IV Supra of "big-screen fame", which is reputed to be the similarly orange Mk IV Supra featured in the 2001 film The Fast and the Furious.[80][81][82]

Recalls

[edit]

On 12 September 2019, the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced a safety recall issued by BMW on the Supra for the seat belt guide loop mounts, which were welded improperly. Only seven units are affected by this recall notice. Of the seven, only one was in the hands of an owner.[92][93]

On 27 September, the NHTSA also announced safety recalls towards several BMW models for their faulty backup cameras. Owners were able to glitch the cameras into not working when backing up. A software patch fixed the issue. The Supra was listed in the recall, as well as direct BMW models such as the X3, X5, 3 Series, 7 Series, 8 Series and more. Even Rolls-Royce (which is owned by BMW) was included in the recall for their Phantom and Cullinan.[94][95][96]

Model codes

[edit]

While Toyota used the "A90" and "A91" code for promotional and marketing materials for the fifth-generation Supra, a reference to the A40–A80 model and chassis codes used for previous generation Supras, the fifth-generation Supra uses BMW naming conventions. The fifth-generation Supra is a J29 series with DB model codes.[1][14]

GR Supra Racing Concept

[edit]

The GR Supra Racing Concept is a concept racing car that previews the racing version of the fifth generation Supra.[97] It debuted at the March 2018 Geneva Motor Show.[98] The design was inspired from the 2014 FT-1 concept. It features a lowered suspension with Toyota OEM parts, BBS centre-lock racing wheels, Brembo racing calipers, a full roll cage and fire extinguisher system, a stripped out interior, Michelin track tyres and a centre exit racing exhaust.[99] It also features carbon fibre for the bonnet, splitter, diffuser, mirror caps, side skirts, wing and bumpers.[100] It is unknown what engine powered the concept.

GR Supra GT4

[edit]

The GR Supra GT4 Concept is a concept racing car that was built as a racing study model for participating in the European GT4 racing series, as well as other GT4 class races around the world.[101] It was first shown at the March 2019 Geneva Motor Show.[102] Upgrades include reduced weight, upgraded brakes and suspension and the addition of a rear wing and roll cage.[103]

Toyota later unveiled a production model in October 2019, with an engine rated at 320 kW (429 hp; 435 PS).[104] It is primarily designed for customer racing, meaning it is able to be purchased and raced by teams that are not factory-backed. It has a seven-speed automatic, as opposed to the eight-speed unit on standard road going models, and an Akrapovič exhaust system. Inside, an FIA-standard racing seat is present featuring a six-point harness, along with a carbon fibre instrument cluster. A Magneti Marelli engine management system, motorsport ABS, data logger and fire extinguisher are standard, while an illuminated car number is optional. The GT4 is equipped with Brembo six-piston front and four-piston rear brake calipers and KW dampers. The GT4 is fitted with Pirelli P Zero racing tyres and OZ wheels. The roll cage and rear wing are also carried over from the concept. Sales began in Europe in March 2020, followed by North America in August 2020 and Japan/Southeast Asia in October 2020.[105][106]

Toyota released the updated GR Supra GT4 in October 2022, named the GR Supra GT4 EVO, with upgrades focused on engine performance, handling, and braking. The engine has been updated with increased power, an updated torque curve with maximum torque of up to 660 N⋅m (487 lb⋅ft), and improved cooling. Additionally, the brake system design has been improved, new ABS settings have been added, and the KW dampers and anti-roll bar specification have been updated for higher cornering speeds and improved handling. Owners of the previous GT4 will have the option to upgrade to the new GT4 EVO specification, if desired. The GT4 EVO will make its debut at the 2023 24 Hours of Daytona. Sales began October 2022 internationally, at a price of €186,000.[107][108]
