Also. The doors have different markings on some of the photos. I can't tell if it's s difference in livery or actual vents.

Well, I'll try and be upbeat about the unannounced stuff (drivetrain). Overall, its beautiful, and after being a die hard Supra fan for 20 years it was pretty cool to actually be able to watch a new gen of the car get unveiled for the first time. Don't fuck it up Toyota!

I'm going to bed.

For the first public presentation this time, Toyota clearly "The GR Supra Racing Concept released for the first time this time is a concept model that revived the Supra as a racing car for the first time in 16 years".

As a result, it is confirmed that the name of the Toyota brand sports car released and released around the world from the autumn to the end of next year and next spring is "SUPRA".

The main characteristics of the concept model announced this time are the total length 4575 mm × the full width 2048 mm × the total height 1230 mm, the wheel base 2470 mm, the driving method is FR, the tire size is the front 30/68 - 18, the rear 31/71 - 18.

According to the information grabbed by this journal, the commercial size of the body is 4380 × full width 1855 × total height 1290 mm. The vehicle weight is 1388 ~ 1496 kg.

There are 3 types of engine lineup. Both are made by BMW, 2L, 4 turbo engine of 2 types with different tuning and 3L 6 turbo are set.

The 3-liter turbo equipped with top grade generates 340 ps / 45.9 kgm. The maximum output is 326 ps in the current BMW 3 series, but it is powered up and installed in Supra.

Two types of 2L turbo generate 197 ps / 32.6 kgm and 258 ps / 40.8 kgm, respectively. As for the maximum speed, the 197 ps specification is 235 km / h, the 258 ps specification marks over 250 km / h (it is the same as 3 L because it is a limiter), 0 to 100 km / h acceleration acceleration is 6.6 s for the 2 L turbo 197 ps specification, 5.4 s for the 258 ps specification , The 3L turbo is said to be 4.8 seconds.

So Best Car was right about the weight and the 0-60? That would make what ATT said wrong.

 

[Guff]

I'm fairly sure wherever that quote is from is just copy paste from Best Car. They are not giving specs for the production car at Geneva afaik.

Only reason why I posted it, at the beginning of the article is states, "According to the information grabbed by this journal, the commercial size of the body"

 

[DevonK]

1496 kg is a very porky 3298 lbs. That better be wrong unless it's cheaper than expected. Even the stated minimum (1388/3060) is not great, more than a base Cayman.

 

[MA617M]

Yep, even the dimensions are cut and paste from best car
