Watch And Hear The New Toyota Supra In Action For The First Time
Just a couple of weeks after being snapped by spy photographers, the all-new Toyota Supra has been spotted again - and this time it was caught on video.
It certainly sounds like it’s packing six-cylinder power, potentially a straight-six. Listen carefully, and you’ll also hear a faint whine which might belong to an electric motor, adding credence to all those rumours that the new Supra will be a hybrid. Power wise, we can expect the package to put out around 400bhp.
As a reminder, Toyota is developing this brand new sports car with BMW - hence why the mule was spotted leaving and entering the BMW M Test Center at the Nurburgring. BMW’s end of the deal will be a soft top likely to be christened ‘Z5’, while Toyota’s version will be a tin top.
Although the revival of the name ‘Supra’ hasn’t been confirmed for the car, it’s deemed highly likely judging by comments from Toyota’s top brass and the decision to trademark ‘Toyota Supra’ in Europe earlier this year. The car should look something like Toyota’s FT-1 concept (above).
Comments
Looking at the cover of this article, the front end of this car looks stupid. I hope that’s just because of the spywrap………
Eurobeat intensifies.
The new ¨supra¨ with all that BMW`s around…humm… Looks suspicious. Waiting for the JDM/EDM fight to c:
Anyone else disappointed?
Judging by the images and body shape…it looks like an extended wheelbase gt86…
Thats my favorite kind of music
Too bad it wont be as its old counterpart and only a ride for guys with high income
the front end looks a bit weird imo..
Both the NSX and the Supra have superbly beautiful looking concepts. While the NSX has remained most of the concept version’s features, I just hope Toyota does the same with the Supra. Pls don’t ruin it.
Kinda sounds like an Inline 6… Just that basic fact gives me a lot of reassurance about this haha
