2020 Toyota Supra

Pros: Track-ready performance; good ride and handling balance

Cons: No manual transmission; interior can feel confining

CG Says: The 2020 Toyota Supra is a new sports car that revives a name from Toyota’s past. The original Supras were sporty 4-passenger coupes sold in the U.S. between 1979 and 1998, while the new version is a 2-passenger sports car. Toyota partnered with BMW to create the latest Supra (which is officially called the GR Supra); the new car shares its basic structure and rear-wheel-drive powertrain with the BMW Z4. While the Z4 is only offered only as a roadster, the Supra has its own styling and comes solely as a coupe. The Supra’s lone powertrain is a 335-horsepower turbocharged 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder paired with an 8-speed automatic and steering-wheel paddle shifters; a manual transmission is not available. Toyota estimates that the Supra accelerates from 0-60 mph in 4.1 seconds and has a top speed of 155 mph. Standard performance features include adaptive suspension, active differential, and launch control. Three trim levels are offered: 3.0, 3.0 Premium, and a limited-production Launch Edition. Available safety features include automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane-departure warning and mitigation, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high-beam headlights. Toyota has teased the public for many years with Supra concept cars and the long-awaited revival doesn’t disappoint… at least if you’re not a Toyota-brand purist who doesn’t want any German engineering in your Japanese sporting machine. The 2020 Supra has sparkling performance and nimble handling wrapped in racy sheetmetal.
