The Toyota GR Supra, after six years of production, is retiring with a special 429bhp final edition. This marks the end of the A90-generation, a sports coupé that has made a strong impact since its debut in 2019. The Supra shares its underpinnings with the BMW Z4, with a focus on track-oriented performance and an updated design, including a revamped chassis and aggressive styling.

Supra’s Passionate Revival and Engineering Origins

The revival of the Toyota Supra was a passion project by Toyota’s chairman Akio Toyoda, who wanted to reintroduce the iconic model despite no official plans from the company. Built alongside the BMW Z4, the Supra has offered both 2.0-litre four-cylinder and 3.0-litre six-cylinder engine options. These powertrains, derived from BMW, provided manual or automatic gearbox choices, combining performance with Toyota’s engineering expertise.

The GR Supra is no longer available for order in the UK, with Toyota’s focus shifting to other performance vehicles like the GR Yaris. Alongside the discontinuation of the GR86 sports car, the GR Supra’s exit marks a significant shift in Toyota’s sports car offerings. The company has also confirmed the Supra will not be available in certain markets going forward, leaving the GR Yaris as Toyota’s primary performance car.

Track-Focused Modifications for Final Edition Supra

The Final Edition of the Supra is limited to 300 units globally, offering a power boost to 429bhp, surpassing the Porsche 911 Carrera. This increase in power is achieved through various mechanical upgrades such as improved airflow, exhaust revisions, and a more refined ECU. Additional modifications include a strengthened rear subframe, upgraded brake pads, and new Michelin PS 2 tires, enhancing track and cornering performance.

The interior of the Final Edition Supra gets race-inspired touches, including carbonfibre Recaro seats, Alcantara trim, and red seatbelts. While Toyota has not confirmed the exact UK allocation or price, it is expected to come with a significant premium over the standard model. Despite the end of road-going production, Toyota plans to continue refining the Supra for motorsport, ensuring its legacy lives on in competitive racing.
