2021 Toyota GR Supra Lineup

Full-Speed Ahead

Toyota GR Supra races into 2021 with a limited-run special-edition A91, more power for the turbocharged 3.0, and a new four-cylinder turbo GR Supra 2.0 model.

Prototypes shown with options.

New GR Supra A91 Edition with Exclusive Color and Design Features

This special-edition Supra will have the 3.0-liter inline-six-cylinder engine and will be available in a choice of two colors, Nocturnal (black) or Refraction (pictured), the latter exclusive to the A91 Edition and an all-new color for Supra. Accenting the Supra’s concept car-inspired body are a rear black carbon-fiber lip spoiler, matte black wheels, C-pillar graphics and carbon-fiber mirror caps. The black Alcantara leather-trimmed interior with blue contrast is likewise exclusive to this limited-availability model, and each A91 Edition will come with two exclusive key gloves and trunk mat.

GR Supra 3.0 Gets Power Boost and Revised Chassis Tuning

For 2021, Toyota boosts the output of the Supra’s turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-six from 335 hp at 5000-6500 rpm to 382 hp at 5800-6500 rpm, a 14-percent increase. Torque rises from 365 ft.-lbs. at 1600-4500 rpm to 368 ft.-lbs. at 1800-5000 rpm. The increased output results from a slew of upgrades throughout the engine. The new dual-branch exhaust manifold, with six ports instead of two, improves heat management. A new piston design reduces the engine’s compression ratio from 11:1 to 10.2:1. Toyota projects that the new engine will reduce the Supra 3.0 model’s 0-60 acceleration time to 3.9 seconds, from 4.1. The 8-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters carries over for 2021.

Seeking increased roll resistance and enhanced cornering stability, Toyota retuned the Supra 3.0 chassis, adding lightweight aluminum braces that tie the strut towers to the radiator support to increase lateral rigidity, along with front and rear bump stops and new damper tuning. Revised programming for the electric power steering (EPS), Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS), Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) and Active Differential works in concert with the hardware changes to make the 2021 Supra more stable through quick transitions, such as compound turns.

New GR Supra 2.0 is First-Ever Four-Cylinder Version, with 255 Horsepower and Lower Weight

The 2021 Supra 2.0 offers an intermediate model between the Toyota 86 and the Supra 3.0, giving the customer three distinct Toyota sports car choices. The 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder engine shares much of its technology with the 3.0-liter inline-six, including a twin-scroll turbo, direct fuel injection and continuously variable timing on both the intake and exhaust camshafts. The variable intake valve lift system adjusts intake valve timing and duration. The bottom line is 255 hp at 5000-6500 rpm and a stout 295 ft.-lbs. peak torque at 1550 to 4400 rpm.

The Supra 2.0 uses the same 8-speed automatic transmission as the 3.0, and Toyota projects 0-60 mph in 5.0 seconds, which will make it Toyota’s second quickest vehicle in the lineup. The Supra 2.0 has the same electronically limited 155-mph top track speed as the 3.0, and its fuel consumption will be lower.

Toyota also announced that all Supra models for 2021 will feature the 8.8-inch audio touch screen that is standard on the 2020 3.0 Premium model.

The 2021 GR Supra models are anticipated to start arriving at USA Toyota dealers in June.
