  • 2020 Toyota Supra

    Toyota previously ruled out a turbo-4 powered Supra for its first model year, but curiously, the engine has undergone certification with the California Air Resources Board. The CARB document, which Autoblog first discovered and reported Tuesday, shows the engine was certified for a number of BMW vehicles, plus one outlier: the 2020 Toyota Supra. BMW is the source of power for all fifth-generation Supras. In the U.S., Toyota will stuff BMW's turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-6 under the hood. Globally, the sports car will also be treated to BMW's B48B20 2.0-liter turbo-4 with two power outputs. An...

    2020 Toyota Supra inline-6 fuel economy estimates nearly as thrifty as BMW Z4 turbo-4

  • 2020 Toyota Supra Formula D car with 2JZ engine swap

    The 2020 Toyota Supra is headed to Formula Drift, but its BMW-sourced 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6 won't burn up its rear tires. Instead, it's headed to the top drift series with a venerable 3.0-liter 2JZ inline-6 from the fourth-generation car under the hood. Professional drifter Daigo Saito posted photos to Instagram of his latest Formula D drift car and they show the 2JZ engine under the hood. This could very well be the world's first 2JZ swap for the 2020 Supra, since the car hasn't gone on sale in any market yet. We knew it was inevitable, even Toyota knew it was inevitable, that the...

  • 2020 Toyota Supra

    With a 335-horsepower turbocharged inline-6, the 2020 Toyota Supra likely isn't on its way to break any lap records, but chief engineer Tetsuya Tada laid down his best guess for a Nürburgring Nordschleife run. Speaking to Road & Track at this week's 2019 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Tada said in a Tuesday report he wagers his engineering darling is good for a 7:40 lap time around the 'Ring. He said it's easy to break the 8:00 mark, and gave a high lap time of 7:50. The electronically controlled speed limiter, which governs the top speed up to 155 mph, would...

    We're less than a month away from the 2020 Toyota Supra's debut, and the company has dropped a new teaser ahead of the beloved nameplate's return. It's a video that really showcases the sound of the Supra's inline-6 engine. The video consists of blurred footage as the Supra rips around and revs out the sweet song only an inline-6 engine can produce. We also see one quick shot of the instrument cluster, although, that's blurred too. The engine will be a BMW-sourced 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6. Expect the car to make 335 horsepower and clock a 0-60 mph time of less than five seconds. Later...
