(car engine revving)
- [Announcer] Continuing a nearly 40-year
tradition of legendary speed and performance,
GR Supra is keeping the pedal to the metal for 2022.
Plus, this year brings the all-new
"A91-CF Edition" into the fold,
with a limited run of just 600 vehicles,
making it the most exclusive Mark 5 Supra to date.
Let's see what keeps Supra raring to go,
whether it's tearing up the track
or revving around town.
The Supra lineup consists of three core grades,
2.0, 3.0 and 3.0 Premium, as well as
the new A91-CF Edition.
As the names imply, Supra 2.0 features
a lively two-liter engine, while the others
house a hair-raising three-liter inline-six
under the hood.
Additionally, 2.0 and 3.0 models can be upgraded
with a Safety & Technology Package,
while 3.0 Premium and A91-CF Edition
can be further enhanced
with a Driver Assist Package.
Honoring its racing namesake,
GR Supra is designed for peak performance,
and this latest generation stays true
to this full-throttle heritage.
To start, Supra features an available
front-mounted inline-six engine
that powers the rear wheels,
as well as a short wheelbase, wide track,
and low center of gravity.
This design helps to provide
exceptional balance and remarkable agility,
as does a fully independent aluminum suspension
with an available Adaptive Variable Suspension system
that can adjust damping force
up to 100 times per second.
Further bolstering handling is an available
active rear sport differential that helps Supra
claw its way out of tight corners.
But the real fun happens under the hood.
Whether 2.0 or 3.0, Supra's twin-scroll
turbocharged engines both ensure
plenty of grunt throughout the rev band,
with peak torque coming on barely above idle
and holding nearly flat all the way to redline.
And in terms of overall power,
Supra 2.0 boasts 255 horsepower,
while the 3.0 models put down
an incredible 382 horsepower.
Regardless of engine choice,
Supra's eight-speed transmission
delivers blisteringly quick shifts
while maintaining an ideal balance of power,
drivability, and efficiency, whether controlled
manually via paddle shifters
or simply left in automatic mode.
Additionally, Supra has a Launch Control feature,
as well as a Drive Mode Select function
that allows for a choice between
two tailored driving profiles,
Normal and Sport.
Normal is optimized for balanced everyday driving,
while Sport Mode tunes the driving experience
for true track-ready performance,
tightening the throttle, transmission,
steering, suspension and of course,
cranking up the exhaust tone.
All told, Supra's zero-to-sixty acceleration
occurs in five seconds flat for Supra 2.0,
while the 3.0 models can rip to 60
in a staggering 3.9 seconds.
From every angle, Toyota's sports car
DNA is evident in Supra's inspired
and cutting-edge design.
For instance, Supra's double-bubble roof is
a callback to the Toyota 2000GT.
This feature enhances aerodynamics
by slimming and curving the frontal area
without sacrificing occupant headroom.
Similarly, the front fascia was inspired
by the fourth-generation Supra,
yet it's even more expressive this time around.
And for lighting, Supra features
distinctive six-lens LED headlights,
LED daytime running lamps and turn signals.
At the rear, a prominent integrated spoiler helps
to both suppress aerodynamic lift
and pay homage to the large rear wing
that was offered on the previous generation.
Supra 2.0 comes equipped with 18-inch alloy wheels,
while 3.0 models feature standard
19-inch forged alloy wheels,
in both cases, wider on the rear and wrapped
in grippy Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires
that were specifically designed for Supra.
And while the core grades look the part,
A91-CF Edition takes the performance formula
up a notch with an array of carbon-fiber elements,
hence the "CF" in its name.
This includes a new carbon fiber front splitter
with larger canards on the sides,
carbon fiber side rockers
that define the lower edge,
a rear wing to catch the air up top,
and lower canards doing so down below.
That's because this aero kit isn't just for looks,
it's functional too, helping to improve downforce
and stability during everyday drives
or time trials on the local track.
Finally, A91-CF Edition's unique
19-inch wheels sport a matte-black texture,
which perfectly complements the vehicle's
available matte-gray paint scheme.
Designed with the driver in mind,
Supra's cockpit is both inviting and functional.
The center console has an asymmetrical shape
that tightly envelops the driver,
while the low, narrow-section dash
gives the driver expansive forward visibility.
Likewise, a wide range of controls
can be found intuitively placed
within easy reach of the driver,
and a standard 8.8-inch digital instrument panel
ensures that both gauges and vehicle information
are clear and legible.
Supra's interior also features
available racing-inspired 14-way
power adjustable seats with memory,
as well as standard adjustable side bolsters
and knee cushions for those spirited corners.
And this year, 3.0 models can also be outfitted
with Supra's bold red leather-trimmed interior.
Plus, A91-CF Edition revs up
the excitement inside as well,
with a red-and-black theme throughout
its alcantara-and-leather-trimmed cabin.
Tuned up with the latest tech,
Supra delivers a leading-edge multimedia
and connectivity experience,
centered around an 8.8-inch touchscreen.
This multimedia platform can be paired
with an available 12-speaker JBL audio system,
and it supports all the features
you've come to expect from a premium vehicle,
including wireless Apple CarPlay,
which connects drivers to Apple Music,
Maps, Messages, and other favorite apps
from your iPhone.
Plus, Supra can also be equipped
with Qi-compatible wireless charging,
as well as the available Toyota Supra
Connect suite of connected services,
which features remote vehicle functionality,
and safety services like emergency roadside assistance.
Boasting several advanced driver assistance systems,
Supra includes active safety features
like Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection,
Lane Departure Warning with Steering Assist,
and Automatic High Beams.
All models can be further upgraded
with Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control,
Blind Spot Monitor, Rear Cross-Traffic Alert,
and Parking Sensors with Emergency Braking Function.
Additionally, Supra also includes
a standard array of eight airbags
and a range of traction assistance features.

When it first debuted,
Toyota's fifth-generation GR Supra
was met with deafening fanfare,
a legend returning to the scene
after more than 20 years away.
And it was worth the wait,
because the enthusiastic acclaim for Supra
has been hard to ignore.
With this flagship sports car,
Toyota has found its purest expression
of performance and technology,
at a price point that puts many exotics to shame.
Plus, it features amazing ownership perks
like a complimentary one-year membership
to the National Auto Sport Association,
which includes a free High Performance
Driving Experience and discounted admission
to NASA-sanctioned events.
All in all, this is a thrilling new chapter
in the story of Supra.
Living up to both its hard-won legacy
and its high-octane reputation.
