The Supra comes with just two powertrain options, a 3.0L inline six-cylinder engine fed by a turbocharger and mated to the rear axle via an 8-speed automatic gearbox. Toyota claims that this engine, sourced from BMW, makes 382 horsepower and 368 lb-ft of torque. While the horsepower number sounds relatively tame, the light weight of the car combined with the big torque numbers mean that the Supra is exceptionally quick, with 0-60 times in the four to five second range. The second powertrain is a 2L turbocharged 4-cylinder with 255 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. Handling is exemplary, with a wide track and quick reflexes, the Supra turns in well and feels adjustable on the limit without feeling any sense of nervousness or unpredictability. Much of that feel and competence is down to the chassis. Unlike most other modern sporty cars, the Supra doesn't share any underpinnings with a sedan or sporty coupe. The only other car that shares its chassis is also a pure sports car. There are four different trim levels 2.0, 3.0, 3.0 Premium and A91-CF Edition. The base model comes standard with a ton of performance features, along with a touch of luxury for those longer journeys. Standard features include 18-inch wheels, an active rear differential, sport suspension, paddle shifters for the steering wheel, dual rear exhaust pipes, LED turn signals, Alcantara and leather trimmed seats, a 8.8-inch display, a 10-way adjustable driver's seat, an 8.8-inch digital instrument cluster, an automatically dimming driver's side mirror, rain sensing wipers and dual-zone climate control, among others. The Premium trim adds red painted brake calipers, nicer pedals, heated, leather trimmed seats, navigation, SiriusXM satellite radio and Apple Carplay, a 12-speaker JBL sound system, a heads up display system, wireless charging and Toyota Supra Connect, featuring a concierge service, remote locking and emergency services.
