To save weight, it would also make use of carbon fiber.
According to a report from Japan’s Best Car Web, the Toyota Supra GRMN could be hotter than the 3000GT. It will come with a turbocharged 3.0-liter Inline-six that makes 395 horsepower (294kW) and a Toyota Supra GRMN . According to the report, the model will likely be released sometime in 2020.
The Supra GRMN will reportedly lose weight due to carbon fiber components. The model would have additional body reinforcements to make it stiffer than the current one. Also, the suspension would be upgraded. It is possible that the body will be more aggressive. The price is likely to be higher than the $53,990 base price for Supra Premium grades (plus $955 destination).
Since the Supra’s debut, rumors have been circulating about what Toyota might do in order to create a more powerful model. Tetsuya Taka, Toyota’s chief engineer, indicated that the company plans to introduce new versions of the coupe each year. The Supra’s debut is scheduled for 2019 (for 2020 model year). This could mean that there will be new variants of the coupe in the future.
It is unlikely that the hotter Supra would have a manual transmission as part of its upgrades. Tada says this is a matter of investment priorities . The company has the ability to create a more powerful coupe, or engineer a three-pedal system. But not both.
The aftermarket should show that Toyota shouldn’t have any problem increasing the Supra’s output. Litchfield, U.K. only has an ECU tune that can increase the Supra’s output to 420 horsepower (313kilowatts) compared to the stock 335 HP (250kW). The Supra GT4 race car can produce 429 horsepower (320 kW) while still packing a 3.0-liter turbocharged, inline-six engine like the road-going model.
