The Toyota GR Supra (model code J29/DB or A90/A91 for marketing purposes) is a sports car produced by Toyota since 2019. The fifth-generation Supra, the GR Supra was sold under and developed by Toyota Gazoo Racing (TGR) brand in collaboration with BMW. It is the successor of the A80 Supra, which ceased production in 2002.
The GR Supra rides on a platform developed by Toyota and BMW, with a short wheelbase, wide track, and low centre of gravity, that also underpins the G29 BMW Z4.{{Cite web|url=https://pressroom.toyota.com/thrilling-design-2020-gr-supra-inherits-great-design-genes/|title = Thrilling by Design: The 2020 GR Supra Inherits Great Design Genes|date = 12 May 2019}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.carthrottle.com/post/how-stalled-bmw-negotiations-nearly-killed-the-a90-toyota-supra/|title = How Stalled BMW Negotiations Nearly Killed the A90 Toyota Supra| date=13 May 2019 }} Initially, BMW considered using a pre-existing platform of their own to underpin the new Supra, but chief engineer Tetsuya Tada declined.{{Cite web|url=https://japanesenostalgiccar.com/why-toyota-didnt-build-its-own-supra/|title = The real reason why Toyota didn't build its own Supra from the ground up|date = 31 May 2019}} Both cars are manufactured at the Magna Steyr plant in Graz, Austria.{{cite web | url = https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1029652_toyota-supra-to-be-built-alongside-bmw-z4-at-austrian-plant| title = Toyota Supra to be built alongside BMW Z4 at Austrian plant| work = Motor Authority| date = 19 September 2018| accessdate = 30 October 2019| language = en}}
The fifth-generation Supra uses BMW model code conventions, designated as a J29 series with DB model codes. However, Toyota used the "A90" and "A91" code for promotional and marketing materials for the fifth-generation Supra to maintain continuity from previous Supra generations.{{Cite web |last=Davis |first=Brett |date=2017-08-10 |title=2018 'J29' Toyota Supra getting 20i, 30i, 40i BMW engines, auto only (video) |url=https://performancedrive.com.au/2018-j29-toyota-supra-getting-20i-30i-40i-bmw-engines-auto-video-1016/ |access-date=2020-02-14 |website=PerformanceDrive |language=en-AU}}
Development
Motor Trend had reported that a possible Supra successor could be based on the FT-HS (Future Toyota-Hybrid Sport),{{cite web |url=http://www.automobilemag.com/auto_shows/2007_detroit/0702_2007_toyota_ft_hs_concept/ |title=2007 Toyota FT-HS Concept – Latest News, Features, and Auto Show Coverage |publisher=– AutomobileMag.com |date=20 December 2006 |accessdate=11 October 2010}} which debuted at the 2007 North American International Auto Show. The publication also reported that the fifth generation of the Supra could be powered by a 3.5-litre V-6 hybrid system generating over {{convert|298|kW|hp PS|abbr=on|0}}. Toyota quoted that it was not rushing for the Supra successor but instead was waiting to see how the sales and interests of the GT86/FR-S went.{{cite web |last=Lyon |first=Peter |url=http://wot.motortrend.com/we-hear-new-toyota-supra-in-pipeline-coming-with-400-hp-hybrid-145159.html/ |title=Report: We Hear: New Toyota Supra in Pipeline, Coming with 400-HP Hybrid |work=Motor Trend |date=12 December 2011 |accessdate=16 December 2011}}
In 2010, Toyota applied for a trademark for the Supra name. The trademark had to be used within three years for it to be valid.{{cite web |last=Korzeniewski |first=Jeremy |url=http://www.autoblog.com/2010/07/30/report-toyota-secures-trademark-for-supra-name/ |title=Report: Toyota secures trademark for Supra name – Autoblog |publisher=Autoblog.com |date=30 July 2010 |accessdate=5 October 2010}} In December 2011, Autoguide reported a possible Supra replacement that would sit above the GT86.{{cite web |url=http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2011/12/toyota-supra-successor-one-of-two-new-models-being-considered.html |title=Toyota Supra Successor One of Two New Models Being Considered |first=Jason |last=Siu |date=6 December 2011 |accessdate=12 November 2012}} Tetsuya Tada, the chief engineer of the Toyota 86/Scion FR-S told reporters in Germany in 2012 "the president (Akio Toyoda) has asked me to make a successor to the Supra as soon as possible."{{cite web |last=Ee |first=Samuel |url=http://ride.asiaone.com/news/general/story/toyota-let-loose-two-more-sports-cars-after-86 |title=Report: Toyota to let loose two more sports cars after the 86 – AsiaOne |publisher=asiaone.com |date=13 November 2012 |accessdate=28 January 2014 |url-status=dead|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140220034044/http://ride.asiaone.com/news/general/story/toyota-let-loose-two-more-sports-cars-after-86 |archivedate=20 February 2014}}
In late 2013, AutoBlog reported a Supra successor concept would be making its debut the January 2014 North American International Auto Show.{{cite web |last=Miersma |first=Seyth |url=http://www.autoblog.com/2013/12/06/toyota-supra-detroit-auto-show/ |title=Report: Toyota to shock with Supra concept for Detroit Auto Show? |publisher=autoblog.com |date=December 2013 |accessdate=27 January 2014}} On 13 January, Toyota unveiled its new FT-1 concept car. Little is known about this new concept car; other than that it has a front engine and rear wheel drive layout. Toyota also stated that their new concept car draws inspiration from Toyota's past sports cars like the 2000GT, Supra, MR-2 and 2007 FT-HS concept car. Toyota did not state whether the FT-1 would use the Supra name, or if it was even bound for production. However, Toyota did state if the FT-1 is approved from production, a price tag of around {{USD|60,000}} was to be expected for each unit.{{cite web |last=Reynolds |first=Kim |url=http://www.motortrend.com/future/concept_vehicles/1403_toyota_ft_1_concept_first_look/ |title=Toyota FT-1 Concept First Look: Akio's Assault Vehicle: Futuristic Sports Car Melds F1 Influences With Supra Styling |publisher=motortrend.com |date=13 January 2014 |accessdate=27 January 2014}} Upon the car's reveal, chief designer—Nobuo Nakamura—confirmed that the FT-1's design was used for inspiration for the Supra but the two cars differ in many ways. The production Supra was smaller and more of a pure sports car design, as opposed to the FT-1 being a larger grand tourer.{{cite web |url=https://www.supramkv.com/threads/how-the-supra-chief-designer-shaped-toyota%E2%80%99s-new-sports-car.1565/ |title=How the Supra Chief Designer Shaped Toyota's New Sports Car |website=SupraMKV |date=17 January 2019 |access-date=9 November 2021}} According to Akio Toyoda, the new Supra's design and performance identity were inspired by the Toyota 2000GT.{{cite web |title=NEWS: This is the production 2020 Toyota Supra |date=14 January 2019 |url=https://japanesenostalgiccar.com/news-this-is-the-production-2020-toyota-supra/}}{{cite web |title=2019 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) remarks by Akio Toyoda |url=https://global.toyota/en/newsroom/toyota/26144610.html}} The interior design, layout, and parts (like the materials, seats, and steering wheel) were also done by Toyota, while only small interior switchgear come from BMW.
On 10 February 2014, Toyota submitted an application to the United States Patent and Trademark Office to renew the Supra trademark.{{cite web |last=Collett |first=Trevor |url=http://www.themotorreport.com.au/58244/toyota-supra-name-is-back-on-the-table-us-patent-application-filed |title=Toyota Supra Name Back on the Table, US Patent Application Filed – The Motor Report |publisher=themotorreport.com.au |date=17 February 2014 |accessdate=17 February 2014}} In June 2016, a trademark application for the Supra nameplate was filed with the European Union Intellectual Property Office.{{cite web |last=Fink |first=Greg |date=6 June 2016 |url=http://blog.caranddriver.com/supra-man-toyota-trademarks-iconic-sports-car-name-in-europe/ |title=Supra Man: Toyota Trademarks Iconic Sports Car Name in Europe |work=Car and Driver |access-date=20 June 2016}} According to Autocar, the new Supra was set to debut in 2018.{{cite web|url=http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/new-toyota-supra-course-2018-launch|title=New Toyota Supra on course for 2018 launch|last=Sheehan|first=Sam|website=Autocar |date=12 July 2016|access-date=10 August 2016}} The publication reported that the car would likely feature rear wheel drive; four-cylinder engines were expected to be available, and it had been confirmed that the car would offer a turbocharged inline-6 engine.{{cite web|url=http://www.thedrive.com/news/19049/production-toyota-supra-confirmed-to-get-early-2019-reveal|title=Production Toyota Supra confirmed to get early 2019 reveal|last=Tsui|first=Chris|website=The Drive|date=7 March 2018|access-date=13 March 2018}} It was believed that these engines would be supplied by BMW.{{cite web|url=https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1112019_no-manual-transmission-for-2019-toyota-supra-but-4-and-6-cylinder-engines-planned|title=No manual transmission for 2019 Toyota Supra, but 4- and 6- cylinder engines planned|last=Szymkowski|first=Sean|website=Motor Authority|date=9 August 2017|access-date=13 March 2018}} Kleine Zeitung reported that the new jointly developed Supra will be produced at a Magna Steyr facility near Graz, Austria, alongside the BMW Z4 (G29).{{cite web|url=http://blog.caranddriver.com/toyota-supra-and-bmw-z5-everything-we-know/|title=Toyota Supra and BMW Z5: Everything We Know|last=Taylor|first=Michael|website=Car and Driver |date=28 July 2016 |access-date=10 August 2016}} Although the sports car's name was yet to be officially confirmed, Toyota global chief engineer Tetsuya Tada said that it will likely carry the nameplate Supra, due to its historical significance to the nameplate.

Power output testing by Car and Driver magazine in May 2019 and May 2020 showed that Toyota had significantly underrated the power output of both versions of the 3.0 L engine by at least 5–8 per cent. The 2020 US model year B58 3.0 L engine was rated at {{cvt|335|hp|kW|order=flip|0}} and {{cvt|365|lbft|order=flip|0}}, yet in dynamometer testing by Car and Driver magazine, the 2020 model year Supra had a power output of {{cvt|345|hp|kW|order=flip|0}} and {{cvt|409|lbft|order=flip|0}} at the wheels. Similarly, the 2021 onwards model year engine was rated at {{cvt|382|hp|kW|order=flip|0}} and {{cvt|368|lbft|order=flip|0}}, yet test results showed {{cvt|388|hp|kW|order=flip|0}} and {{cvt|421|lbft|order=flip|0}} at the wheels. The power at the engine's crankshaft is the standardized calculation manufacturers use to rate engine power, therefore since a dynamometer measures these power outputs at the wheels, these figures are also typically 5–8 per cent higher at the crankshaft on a modern performance car when accounting for driveline loss. Car and Driver's testing therefore revealed that the Supra was making, at the very least, {{cvt|30|hp|kW|order=flip|0}} more power and {{cvt|40|lbft|order=flip|0}} more torque at the crankshaft than the factory claimed for both versions of the 3.0 engine, so the later 3.0 model is likely producing over {{cvt|410|hp|kW|order=flip|0}} and over {{cvt|460|lbft|order=flip|0}}.{{Cite web |last=Beard |first=David |date=2019-05-22 |title=The 2020 Toyota Supra Makes More Power Than Toyota Claims |url=https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a27543113/2020-toyota-supra-dyno-horsepower/ |access-date=2022-05-12 |website=Car and Driver |language=en-US}}{{Cite web |last=Beard |first=David |date=2020-05-13 |title=Dyno Tested: 2021 Toyota Supra Appears More Powerful Than 382-HP Rating |url=https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a32461333/2021-toyota-supra-dyno-tested/ |access-date=2022-05-12 |website=Car and Driver |language=en-US}}

= Engineering =
Before production, Toyota wanted to develop and engineer a rear-wheel drive sports car that would compete against the Porsche Cayman S (982), while BMW wanted to build a roadster, which gave them the idea of co-developing an all-new platform that would handle both coupe and convertible variants with great rigidity and handling of torque. The platform takes few elements from BMW's M cars that were praised by both Toyota and BMW for their characteristics, such as the suspension design, forged control arms and electronic differential, all while being able to reduce costs for production and the final product.{{cite news |last=Pratte |first=Dave |date=30 May 2019 |title=The 2020 GR Supra Is A Lot More Toyota Than You Think |work=Speed Academy |url=http://speed.academy/the-2020-gr-supra-is-a-lot-more-toyota-than-you-think/ |access-date=10 September 2021}} After co-developing the platform together, Toyota and BMW went to develop the rest of the two cars separately, such as chassis development, exterior and interior designs, and tuning of both drivetrain and suspension.{{Cite web |date=2019-05-30 |title=The 2020 GR Supra Is A Lot More Toyota Than You Think |url=http://speed.academy/the-2020-gr-supra-is-a-lot-more-toyota-than-you-think/ |access-date=2023-01-16 |website=Speed Academy |language=en-US}} For example, on the Supra, the side sills are significantly wider and stiffer, there is more chassis bracing, and Toyota moved the engine backwards in the engine bay for better weight distribution.{{Cite web |date=2019-05-30 |title=The 2020 GR Supra Is A Lot More Toyota Than You Think |url=http://speed.academy/the-2020-gr-supra-is-a-lot-more-toyota-than-you-think/ |access-date=2023-01-16 |website=Speed Academy |language=en-US}} The fake vents on the car's exterior were also leftovers from its race car prototype, and were designed for the aftermarket car community (who were responsible for the previous generation's cult following) to make them functional.{{cite web |title=The Toyota Supra's Blocked-Off Air Vents Can Be Made Functional, Says the Chief Engineer |date=16 January 2019 |url=https://www.roadandtrack.com/car-shows/detroit-auto-show/a25904043/2020-toyota-supra-air-vents-functional/}}

In late November 2024, Toyota unveiled the A90 Final Edition, which serves as the last edition of the A90 Supra.
The A90 Final Edition includes parts sourced from and inspired by the GT4 race car, such as carbon-fibre front spoiler, canards, removable bonnet duct, and swan-neck rear wing, as well as the rear subframe from the race car and extra bracing.{{Cite press release |title=New High-performance A90 Final Edition and upgraded GR Supra Lightweight EVO announced |url=https://newsroom.toyota.eu/new-high-performance-a90-final-edition-and-upgraded-gr-supra-lightweight-evo-announced/ |publisher=Toyota |location=Europe |date=2024-11-28 |access-date=2025-03-05}} This special edition receives various upgrades such as new KW suspension, Akrapovič titanium exhaust, Brembo 15.6-inch front rotors and four-piston calipers, forged 19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheels, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres, and carbon-fibre Recaro Podium CF seats.{{Cite press release |title=TGR Announces Partially Upgraded Supra (3.0-liter) and Special-edition Supra “A90 Final Edition” |url=https://toyotagazooracing.com/pressrelease/2024/1128-01/ |date=2024-11-28 |access-date=2025-03-05 |website=Toyota GAZOO Racing |language=en}}

In 2020, for the 2021 model year, two new models, the A91 Edition and the 2.0, was introduced. For the 3.0, 3.0 Premium, and A91 Edition, the output of the 3-litre engine was increased to {{cvt|382|hp|kW|order=flip|0}} and {{cvt|368|lbft|Nm|0|order=flip}} of torque. This increase in power is due to revised engine tuning, 10.2:1 compression ratio, and a six-port cylinder head and six-port turbo manifold, as opposed to the 11:1 compression ratio, two-port version for the 2020 model year. Additionally for the 2021 model year, the rear suspension bushings were updated and chassis stiffening bars were added to the engine bay. The 2.0 will feature the same 2-litre engine used in the SZ and SZ-R models sold in Japan, and is rated at {{cvt|255|hp|kW|order=flip|0}} and {{cvt|295 |lbft|Nm|0|order=flip}} of torque.{{Cite web |date=2020-02-13 |title=Toyota GR Supra Races Into 2021 with More Power and First-Ever Four-Cylinder Turbo Model |url=https://pressroom.toyota.com/toyota-gr-supra-races-into-2021-with-more-power-and-first-ever-four-cylinder-turbo-model/ |access-date=2022-12-19 |website=Toyota USA Newsroom |language=en-US}}{{Cite web |date=2020-06-17 |title=2021 Toyota GR Supra Hits the Streets with More Power, A91 Edition and First-Ever Four-Cylinder Turbo Model |url=https://pressroom.toyota.com/2021-toyota-gr-supra-hits-the-streets-with-more-power-a91-edition-and-first-ever-four-cylinder-turbo-model/ |access-date=2022-12-19 |website=Toyota USA Newsroom |language=en-US}}

Known issues
A known issue with the GR Supra is wind buffeting when both side windows are rolled down by any amount. This is caused by Helmholtz resonance at speeds as low as {{cvt|35|mph|km/h|round=5|order=flip}} and becomes significantly uncomfortable around {{cvt|50|mph|km/h|round=5|order=flip}}. Although this issue has not been recalled, it has been acknowledged by Toyota engineers to exist but to not cause enough complaints as to warrant any action.{{Cite web |date=2020-05-13 |title=You Can't Drive the Toyota Supra With the Windows Down |url=https://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/a32460202/toyota-supra-windows-down-bad/ |first=Bob |last=Sorokanich |access-date=2025-04-15 |website=Road & Track |location=US}}{{Cite web |date=2020-01-03 |title=Watch Us Fix Toyota Supra's Most Annoying Problem with Cardboard and a Roll of Tape |url=https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a30380806/toyota-supra-wind-noise-problem-fixed/ |first=Ezra |last=DyerU |access-date=2025-04-15 |website=Car and Driver |location=US}}
Recalls
On 12 September 2019, the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced a safety recall issued by BMW on the Supra for the seat belt guide loop mounts, which were welded improperly. Only seven units are affected by this recall notice. Of the seven, only one was in the hands of an owner.{{cite news |url=https://www.motor1.com/news/373750/toyota-supra-safety-recall-bmw/ |title=2020 Toyota Supra Already Has Safety Recall . . .

On 27 September, the NHTSA also announced safety recalls towards several BMW models for their faulty backup cameras. Owners were able to glitch the cameras into not working when backing up. A software patch fixed the issue. The Supra was listed in the recall, as well as direct BMW models such as the X3, X5, 3 Series, 7 Series, 8 Series and more. Even Rolls-Royce (which is owned by BMW) was included in the recall for their Phantom and Cullinan.{{Cite news |url=https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/bmw-toyota-supra-backup-camera-recall/ |title=BMW backup camera recall affects nearly every model – even stepchild Toyota Supra |last=Szymkowski |first=Sean |work=Roadshow |location=US |access-date=2019-10-31}}{{Cite news |url=https://www.autoblog.com/2019/10/09/bmws-rolls-royces-toyota-supra-backup-camera-recall/ |title=Widespread BMW backup camera recall includes Supra, Rolls-Royces |work=Autoblog |location=US |access-date=2019-10-31}}{{Cite news |url=https://www.motor1.com/news/375493/bmw-backup-camera-recall/ |title=BMW Recalls Nearly All Of Its Vehicles Built Since 2018 |last=Toyota |first=BMW Rolls-Royce |work=Motor1 |location=US |access-date=2019-10-31}}
Model codes
While Toyota used the "A90" and "A91" code for promotional and marketing materials for the fifth-generation Supra, a reference to the A40–A80 model and chassis codes used for previous generation Supras, the fifth-generation Supra uses BMW naming conventions. The fifth-generation Supra is a J29 series with DB model codes.{{Cite web|url=https://web.motormagazine.co.jp/_ct/17146864|title=【スクープ!:ジュネーブショー2018】トヨタの出展情報をキャッチ 目玉はGRスープラとカローラスポーツ!(2月9日更新) – Webモーターマガジン|website=web.motormagazine.co.jp|language=en|access-date=2020-02-14}}{{Cite web|title=SPECIFICATIONS トヨタ スープラ 主要諸元表|url=https://toyota.jp/pages/contents/supra/002_p_001/4.0/pdf/spec/supra_spec_202004.pdf|website=toyota.jp}}
