The Toyota GR Supra, a name synonymous with sports car excellence, has consistently thrilled enthusiasts with its front-engine, rear-wheel-drive configuration and the ‘golden ratio’ dimensions for superior handling. Born from the TOYOTA GAZOO Racing (TGR) ethos, the GR Supra has become a global icon. Now, to honor its dedicated fanbase and rich motorsport heritage, Toyota unveils the GR Supra “A90 Final Edition,” the most evolved iteration of this generation, alongside the upgraded GR Supra Lightweight EVO, promising enhanced driving dynamics.
GR Supra A90 Final Edition: The Pinnacle of Performance
The GR Supra A90 Final Edition stands as a testament to TOYOTA GAZOO Racing’s relentless pursuit of driving perfection. This limited edition model is not just an aesthetic upgrade; it’s a comprehensive enhancement package designed to deliver an unparalleled driving experience. Inspired by the GR Supra’s global motorsport successes, from drift competitions to NASCAR and GT4 championships, the A90 Final Edition pushes the boundaries of performance and exclusivity. With only 300 units available worldwide, this edition is a true collector’s gem.
Power and Performance Unleashed
At the heart of the GR Supra A90 Final Edition lies a potent powertrain upgrade. The engine output has been boosted significantly, jumping from 340 DIN hp (250 kW) to a thrilling 435 DIN hp (320 kW). Torque also sees a substantial increase, from 500 Nm to 570 Nm, resulting in blistering acceleration and enhanced responsiveness. This power surge, achieved through refined intake air paths, a low-back-pressure catalyst, and optimized engine controls, propels the A90 Final Edition to a top speed of 270km/h, a 20km/h increase over the standard model.
Precision Handling and Control
The GR Supra A90 Final Edition is engineered to conquer corners with confidence. It features damping-force-adjustable KW suspension, the same brand used in the GR Supra GT4 race car. This high-performance suspension offers 16 rebound and 12 compression stages, allowing drivers to fine-tune the handling for diverse driving conditions. Further enhancing cornering prowess are adjusted camber angles on both front and rear wheels, maximizing grip, and an optimized active differential control to minimize understeer.
Steering precision is elevated through exclusive electric power steering settings, providing a more direct and communicative feel. Body reinforcement braces, including a strengthened rear luggage crossbar, the GR Supra GT4-derived rigid aluminum rear subframe mount, and fortified front and rear stabilizers, contribute to an even more connected driving sensation.

Braking and Cooling for Peak Performance
To manage the enhanced power and handling, the GR Supra A90 Final Edition is equipped with uprated braking and cooling systems. 19-inch Brembo front brakes with high friction coefficient pads and drilled floating discs ensure exceptional stopping power, even under demanding sports driving conditions. Stainless steel mesh brake hoses minimize pressure loss, maximizing braking system efficiency.
Maintaining optimal performance during spirited driving is crucial. A baffle plate in the engine oil pan prevents oil distribution issues under high g-forces. Cooling is significantly improved with a strengthened radiator fan, an added sub-radiator, and enlarged differential gear cover cooling fins.
Aerodynamic and Aesthetic Excellence
The GR Supra A90 Final Edition boasts a distinctive matt black exterior and striking aerodynamic enhancements developed through extensive wind tunnel testing by TOYOTA GAZOO Racing Europe (TGR-E). Motorsport-derived carbon-fiber components, including a front spoiler, canards, and center flap, work in harmony with a GR Supra GT4-style carbon-fiber swan-neck rear wing to optimize aerodynamic balance, downforce, and drag. A new carbon-fiber bonnet duct with a removable inner element provides additional cooling when needed. An Akrapovič titanium muffler, inspired by the GR Supra GT4, amplifies the engine’s sound, adding to the auditory thrill.
Race-Inspired Interior
The interior of the GR Supra A90 Final Edition reflects its high-performance character. RECARO Podium CF full-bucket seats, finished in racy red with Alcantara seat pads, provide exceptional support and comfort even under high g-forces. Red seat belts, exclusive carbon fiber scuff plates, and extensive Alcantara trim, including on the steering wheel, further emphasize the limited edition’s exclusivity and sporty ambiance.
GR Supra Lightweight EVO: Sharpening the Driving Experience
Alongside the A90 Final Edition, Toyota introduces the GR Supra Lightweight EVO, an evolution focused on enhancing driver connection and handling precision. This model incorporates customer feedback and TGR’s motorsport-honed expertise to deliver an even more engaging driving experience.
Enhanced Handling and Control Dynamics
The GR Supra Lightweight EVO benefits from refined active differential control and exclusive control maps, optimizing traction and reducing understeer during cornering. Revised front and rear wheel camber angles further improve cornering grip and stability. Larger Brembo brake discs enhance braking control, inspiring driver confidence.
Suspension and chassis modifications are central to the Lightweight EVO’s enhanced driving dynamics. Revised electronically controlled shock absorber characteristics and a strengthened front stabilizer improve overall handling performance. Strengthened rubber bushings for the front control arms and rear sub-frame mounts, along with a stronger under-body brace, create a heightened sense of suspension and body integration.
Aerodynamic and Styling Refinements
Aerodynamic enhancements on the Lightweight EVO include a ducktail carbon fiber rear spoiler, new front wheel arch flaps, and higher front tyre spats, all working to optimize aerodynamic balance and downforce. Optimized electric power steering further sharpens steering feel and control. The exterior is complemented by new 19-inch matte black wheels, while the interior features an Alcantara-upholstered genuine leather driver’s seat with GR logo embroidery, red stitching, and red accents, enhancing the sporty cabin environment.
Both the GR Supra A90 Final Edition and the GR Supra Lightweight EVO represent Toyota’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of sports car performance and driving pleasure. Available for order in Europe from January 2025*, these models are poised to further solidify the GR Supra’s legendary status.
