MKV Toyota Supra Master Thread

[Flagship1]

I'm not opposed to it. Purpose evolves. The path to that purpose evolves. As long as the Supra looks striking and was built with passion, it'll be fine. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about a 3 cylinder in the GR Corolla, but it's phenomenal. The product development team gave all the f***s and that's what matters. That passion made a very special machine.

To me, this is more sacrilegious than BMW collaborating with Toyota to build a GR Supra. Now sure, there is a 4-cylinder model, but very few people purchase that one anyways. The vast majority of people buy the inline-six.

If toyota makes this motor and platform as friendly and open to the aftermarket as it has done with the overlanding crew before the GX and LC customer launch this might take up the 2jz mantle.

If they decide everything is inhouse or turn key i get your point @F1 Silver Arrows

We need to be a little patient. They haven't revealed any plans for the 400PS+ segment unless they want to go full electric there which is highly unlikely. If their estimates are correct the V35's output will be reduced to 280-300 PS in 2027. They cannot sell a half-ton truck or full-size SUV with that amount of power. The V35 WILL get a replacement but we just don't know their plans yet.

I agree that the 600PS 2.0L variant will not make it into a production car as the drivability will probably be very poor. It's likely for the SuperGT and Super Formula programs.

That seems reasonable... but I will say that having a 600PS motorsports version that shares a lot with the normal production version is the sort of thing that enthusiasts eat up.

will the b58 from bmw face similar penalties?

To the car manufacturers that aren't fully prepared to deal with Euro 7 emissions regulations, good luck lol 😂.

When Toyota, Mazda and Subaru announced they are making new gen engines, I saw comments from some Japanese Honda fanboys being upset that their favourite brand is not caring much about ICEs anymore and instead is still continuing to dump their money into EVs despite the dwindling demand for EVs.

BMW has always been fully committed to ICE development (even including further development of V8s) so even if B58 won't satisfy Euro 7, the B59 would certainly be ready by 2027 with little to no loss in output.

The Stellantis Hurricane is already compliant with EPA2027 and it should be a reference for a future B59 or whatever Toyota plans to replace the V35 with.

BMW was the "No.2 villain" after Toyota in the eyes of "ESG investors".

Don't mind me, I'm just bored.

3 yr run and done

Not even sure why they bothered to sell the 4 cylinder version in North America. Japanese and European market might somewhat make sense for this model, but in North America? Hell no lol.

So anyone wondering, yes the 2UR does fit in a zupra, and yes side dump exhausts looks clean.

Speaking to Drive at the unveiling of the Toyota GR Supra V8 Supercar at Mount Panorama, Bathurst – ahead of its racing debut in 2026 – Hanley said suggestions the Supra will be dropped simply aren’t true.

“No, no, that's speculation. Let me tell you: Supra as a model that is not stopping,” Hanley sad.

When asked about a timeframe, and if Supra will continue beyond 2026 when it will be in its seventh year of production and due for a new-generation refresh, the Toyota boss repeated: “It’s not stopping. I don't know where this impure thinking is coming from.”

“People always say ‘When’s the new model?’ but the day we launch a new model we start to think about the next one – you’ll have to wait and see when the new one’s coming,” he added.

“But I’m telling you now – Supra keeps going.”

What do you guys think? Feels like a very uninformed statement for Hanley to be making.

From what I know... he's right.

Perhaps, but I don't see it happening as an ICE nor within a year or two of A90 production ending. I can only see it happening as an EV nearing 2030
