Toyota has unveiled the final edition of its iconic sports car, the GR Supra MkV for 2026. This marks the end of an era as the fifth-generation model prepares to retire after seven years on the market.
Key Takeaways
- The final edition features a turbocharged inline-six engine producing 382 horsepower and 368 lb-ft torque.
- A manual transmission option is available at no extra cost alongside the standard eight-speed automatic gearbox.
- The car’s interior offers excellent driver support but limited space for smaller items in the cabin.
Toyota introduced the fifth generation GR Supra back in 2020, following a lengthy hiatus. Despite criticisms about its origins linked to BMW’s Z4 model, it has carved out its own identity as a capable sports car competing with pricier rivals.
The MkV Final Edition is available in three trims: the base 3.0, premium 3.0, and top-tier MkV edition. All models sport powerful engines paired with either an eight-speed automatic or six-speed manual transmission.
Inside, drivers enjoy snug seats that provide excellent support but may feel tight around the shoulders at times. The leather upholstery isn’t perforated for ventilation purposes. Rear-wheel drive provides a firm driving experience without being overly harsh on bumpy roads.
The GR Supra’s trunk offers 10.2 cubic feet of cargo space, which is typical for sports cars. A pass-through under the rear seats allows transporting longer items but requires support from the suspension tower brace. The climate control system lacks clear synchronization between its two zones and could benefit from increased fan speed at full blast.
