Toyota has unveiled two thrilling new additions to its sports car lineup: the A90 Final Edition and the upgraded GR Supra Lightweight EVO. These models are testaments to Toyota’s relentless pursuit of perfection and highlight the company’s commitment to exhilarating driving experiences.
A Tribute to the Supra’s Heritage: A90 Final Edition The GR Supra “A90 Final Edition” celebrates the current generation’s fans and Toyota’s rich motorsport history. This special edition marks the culmination of the current model line with significant performance enhancements, including an increase of 95 DIN hp (70 kW) and an additional 70 Nm of torque. These enhancements stem from refined engine tuning and exhaust system optimizations designed to deliver a more dynamic driving experience.
The A90 Final Edition also includes advanced aerodynamics, a motorsport-derived KW suspension system, and larger tires, all engineered to deliver superior handling and driving dynamics. While this edition concludes the current GR Supra’s production, TOYOTA GAZOO Racing (TGR) will continue to evolve the Supra legacy through future motorsport activities.
Elevating the Experience: GR Supra Lightweight EVO The GR Supra Lightweight EVO has been enhanced based on direct feedback from customers and incorporates cutting-edge motorsport technology. It features improved handling, advanced braking systems, and refined aerodynamics for an even more connected and precise driving experience.
Inside, the Lightweight EVO showcases a sporty and exclusive atmosphere with high-performance RECARO seats and extensive use of Alcantara and carbon-fiber throughout the cabin, reinforcing the car’s high-spec nature.
The Supra’s Evolution From its origins as the Celica Supra in 1978, the Toyota Supra has evolved into a revered sports car, celebrated on both the road and racetrack. Revived in 2019 after a 17-year hiatus, thanks to the passionate efforts of Chairman Akio Toyoda, the Supra underwent rigorous development, including extensive testing at the Nürburgring to ensure it delivered maximum driving pleasure.
In 2022, Toyota introduced a manual transmission tailored specifically for the 3.0-liter engine, along with enhancements to the car’s braking and suspension systems, underscoring Toyota’s dedication to driver satisfaction and engineering excellence.
Looking to the Future These latest offerings—the A90 Final Edition and the GR Supra Lightweight EVO—illustrate Toyota’s ongoing commitment to driving innovation. With the A90 Final Edition limited to just 300 units globally, and the Lightweight EVO’s refined capabilities, both models promise to enhance the legacy of the Toyota Supra. They will become available in Europe starting January 2025, continuing the storied lineage of this iconic sports car.
