2025 Toyota GR Supra Overview

What’s new:

  • Four-cylinder engines are no longer made.
  • From 2025 on, prices will go up.
  • A part of the fifth generation of Supras that will be released in 2020.

An inline-six engine was the only way to power the Toyota Supra for a long time. This is one of the main reasons Toyota worked with BMW, a company known for its inline-six engines, to make this generation of Supra. (In many ways, the BMW Z4 is the same as the roadster.) An inline-six engine is the only engine that will work in the 2025 Toyota GR Supra. The base four-cylinder engine is no longer available. The fact that it fell apart shows that buyers weren’t as interested in it as we were. It shouldn’t be a surprise that Toyota’s sports car costs more now that it doesn’t have a four-cylinder engine. The engine was mainly a way to get into the Supra for less money. The other parts of the car stay the same.

It would be wrong to call the GR Supra a BMW Z4 car with a Toyota name on it. Even though the two cars share the same base, the Supra’s electronics, powertrain, and interior are all made by BMW. Toyota did change some of the motor parts, though, so driving the two cars feels different. To put it simply, the GR Supra feels more energized, and the six-speed manual transmission shifts gears more accurately. If there is one really important thing, it’s sharing technology: The infotainment system is not only simpler and easier to use than those in new Toyotas, but it is also from a previous version of BMWs. On the plus side, BMW’s adaptive cruise control technology works better than Toyota’s.

The main competitor to think about is the BMW Z4. There isn’t much else like this if you like the GR Supra but wish it could be bent over. The Supra and Z4 share an updated base with the BMW M240i and M2. This means that if you like BMW DNA but want a car with a back seat, you can get one. Besides that, they have 3.0-liter inline-six motors. In a world other than BMW, the Porsche 718 Cayman is the big dog. Even though it’s pricey and most models have four engines, the driving and driver involvement are top-notch. The Nissan Z has been a competitor to the GR Supra for a long time and has some design similarities, but it is much slower and less stable on our test track.

Pros

  • The engine makes a lot of power and sounds great.
  • Traditional drivers like cars with manual transmissions.
  • People know experienced drivers for how quickly and actively they drive.
  • The performance was great for the price.

Cons

  • Only two places.
  • There isn’t a lot of space in the cabin for small things.
  • It’s not comfortable to sit in these seats for a long time.
  • You can choose between Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

How do you like to drive the GR Supra? This version of the Supra is great at both quick, straight-line speed and quick handling, which were strengths of older models. Invoice Pricing tested a GR Supra with an automatic transmission, which reached 60 mph in 4.4 seconds. A lot of information is sent from the front tires to your hands when you turn the steering wheel. The tires give the car a good grip, and the whole thing feels fast and interesting. Because the tires were sticky and the brakes worked well, our test Supra could stop from 60 mph in 105 feet. However, for more demanding uses like track driving, better brake pads would be beneficial. However, the GR Supra isn’t merely a weekend warrior vehicle. You don’t have to work hard to drive it every day.

What level of comfort does the GR Supra offer? The seats are very supportive, but they are a little too tight around your shoulders. It’s clear when you’re driving, but not so much when you’re going fast. The leather padding doesn’t let enough airflow because it doesn’t have holes in it. It’s not rough, but it’s hard. Large vertical movements are easier to see because you are close to the back axle.

This house isn’t very quiet—there’s some road and wind noise—but it’s not a bother. When you drive in Sport mode, it makes just the right amount of exhaust burble and induction noise. Strangely, the two temperature control zones can’t just work together. At its fastest speed, the fan could use a little more power.

How is the inside? If you know how BMW’s old iDrive system worked, the GR Supra’s entertainment system will look a lot like it. If you have never used this method before, you will need to learn how the menus work first. The rest of the functions are simple.

The doors on the GR Supra are light and a little shorter than most. No matter how tall you are, you should keep an eye on your head. The seat bolsters make it easy to get in. In general, the car’s best feature is not how much space it has. For instance, the BMW M2 and Porsche Cayman are great at having a roomy cabin.

How does the tech work? The navigation system can find specific places of interest even without an address, and it can understand simple English orders. The voice instructions make it easy to set up your route. Our test car, the GR Supra, came with the 12-speaker luxury audio system. The sound quality is fine, but not as full as we’d expect from a better setup. The 3.0 Premium is the only model that can charge a device wirelessly and link to a computer via a single USB port. There is no Android Auto, but there is wifi Apple CarPlay (basic or standard).

Adaptive cruise control can only be used with an automatic engine. It works well when it’s properly equipped. It can keep a small gap between you and the car in front of you. It is also more active than other systems and works all the way down to a stop. However, the help with keeping your lane isn’t as good. It won’t keep you in the middle, but it will cut down on lane moves.

How are things with the storage? Cargo capacity is sometimes sacrificed in sports cars, and the GR Supra is no exception. There is less room in the trunk than in the BMW M2 and Porsche Cayman (10.24 cubic feet). Use the cargo pass-through to the cabin to carry longer things. The back suspension tower brace must, however, hold those things up.

Even worse, there is no place to store small things in the house. The cupholders are put where often an armrest bin goes. Also, putting liquids in them will make it hard to use the controls for the entertainment system. The more expensive types come with a charging station for wireless devices, but it won’t work with phones that are bigger than 6 inches. The glove box and door pockets are also too small.

How much fuel does it use? We didn’t think the GR Supra would be so good at saving gas, but it is. For the model we tried, the EPA says the six-cylinder engine gets about 26 miles per gallon. During our tests, our real-world evaluation route got an amazing 29 mpg.

Should you pay that much for the GR Supra? The GR Supra’s cabin looks and feels more like something from BMW than Toyota, but it’s still a comfortable place with a high-end look and feel. It’s a nice touch that the Supra comes with carbon-fiber trim, which makes it stand out from other coupes.

When compared to competitors, Toyota’s warranty coverage is a tradeoff. There is better coverage for the engine, but there isn’t much coverage for the whole car. It also comes with regular care for two years.

For the most part, the GR Supra meets expectations. Even though this car has a lot of unmistakable BMW DNA, if you value performance and stylish style, it’s a wonderful choice. Regarding the price, Supra’s appeal is undeniable. As long as you don’t have to haul a lot of goods or spend a lot of time on dirt roads, it’s swift and responsive enough to be your daily driver.

We’d buy the 3.0 Premium. For an extra $3,000, you can get better entertainment features, like Apple CarPlay, wireless charging for your devices, and leather seats. Is this necessary for you? Probably not. Does CarPlay have to be there? Of course. Still, you’ll be glad you have that stuff.
