Toyota GR Supra A90 Final Edition Announced for Japan and Europe

Published on November 28, 2024 in News by Guillaume Rivard

The fifth-generation Toyota GR Supra may not stick around for much longer, but it will go out with a bang. The automaker today announced a GR Supra A90 Final Edition limited to 300 units. Sadly, it’s for Japan and Europe only.

This ultimate Supra cranks things up with a turbocharged 3.0-litre inline six-cylinder engine that produces 429 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque instead of 382 hp and 369 lb-ft as in the current car. It’s all handled exclusively by a six-speed manual transmission.  

Engineers have revised the intake and exhaust systems, optimized engine cooling and electronics, upgraded the rear differential and fitted an Akrapovic titanium muffler for a more visceral sound.

But wait, there’s so much more. Inspired by Toyota Gazoo Racing’s GR Supra GT4 race car, a KW suspension offering adjustable damping is also part of the mix, along with reinforced sway bars and increased wheel camber angle for superior handling.

Speaking of wheels, the A90 Final Edition rides on 19-inch front and 20-inch rear light-alloy wheels that are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 high-performance tires. Braking is taken care of by a set of Brembo callipers, high-friction pads and 13.6-inch cross-drilled rotors.

And as you can see on the pictures, the car is easy to identify with a vented hood, new front spoiler with canards and carbon fibre rear wing sitting on swan-neck mounts.

The interior gets carbon fibre Recaro Podium CF bucket seats trimmed in Alcantara. The driver’s cockpit is clearly defined with red upholstery while the rest of the cabin is mostly black. There is additional bracing behind the seats for a stiffer body structure.

As mentioned up top, production will be limited to the Japanese and European markets. In North America, the 2025 GR Supra went on sale this summer and dropped the four-cylinder engine. A 2026 model has yet to be confirmed.

Don’t worry, Toyota has already said that a sixth generation is in the works. When will it be ready? That’s still a mystery for now. But get this: all signs point to the BMW-derived straight-six being tossed aside and replaced by a performance-focused Toyota hybrid powertrain.
