8 THE TOYOTA GR SUPRA: A FIRST FOR TOYOTA GAZOO RACING

The Toyota GR Supra is the first GR model to be produced by TOYO- TA GAZOO Racing for the global market. TOYOTA GAZOO Racing is the umbrella organisation for Toyota’s global motorsports programme and in the past year it has achieved top level success in winning the Le Mans 24 Hours in the FIA World Endurance Championship, the Manufacturers’ Championship in the FIA World Rally Championship and the 2019 . Its work is based on three pillars: developing people through participation in motorsport; creating fans through the excitement of motorsport; and applying the knowledge gained from motor- sport to make ever-better cars for the road that are fun to drive. This ethos was fully embraced by Kiichiro Toyoda, the founder of Toyota’s car-making business, and is shared today by Akio Toyo- da, Toyota Motor Corporation President, to support the company’s commitment to make ever-better cars. Starting with the Toyota GR Supra, TOYOTA GAZOO Racing will transfer the technical learnings it gains from the racetrack and rally stage to the development of new generations of Toyota’s sports-focused GR models and also its wider range of vehicles, driven by tens of millions of people around the world.

9 MESSAGE FROM TETSUYA TADA, CHIEF ENGINEER OF THE NEW TOYOTA GR SUPRA

• Single-minded approach to create a “fun-to-drive” sports car • Achievement of the “golden ratio” determined the overall package and dimensions • Pure antithesis of today’s industry trends

TETSUYA TADA, Chief Engineer of the Toyota GR Supra, gives his per- sonal insight into the project and what he aimed to achieve with the new car.

THE SUPRA LEGACY Being asked to make a sports car that offers the ultimate, pure driving pleasure felt like a mandate from heaven, telling me to “make a Supra!” The GT86 helped broaden the scope and appeal of Toyota’s sports cars. Next, I needed to deliver a car that offers a seemingly limitless sense of control, a car that will meet expectations and delight even hardcore fans.

10 In making Supra, I insisted on visiting enthusiasts’ clubs around the THE FRONT ENGINE/REAR-WHEEL DRIVE PACKAGE world to talk to owners of previous models. I asked them what they With the new Supra we did everything that could be done with front thought the minimum requirements should be and the response was engine/rear-wheel drive packaging. For example, the speed through a always “a straight-six turbo and front engine/rear-wheel drive confi- slalom course is about 20 per cent faster than our original target time. guration”. It was pretty clear and I had more or less anticipated this. And it’s not just a fast car, it’s exhilarating. The key point was to keep that combination intact.

With that being the case, A DEEP DIVE INTO DRIVING PLEASURE cars might no longer need to be fun to drive. But I am not sure we I repeatedly told the development team that I wanted them to hone should just accept the impact this is having on the role of the car.

The result a truly original design. approached the limits of what can be manufactured in higher volume, in particular with the powerful curves of the rear wings. In the finished design, the ‘Condensed’ theme is evident inthe relationship between the Toyota GR Supra’s large-diameter tyres, short wheelbase and overall length. It’s notable that the wheelbase is in fact shorter than in the GT86 and that the tyres are larger. ‘Extreme’ is interpreted in the car’s wide stance, with tight cabin proportions and a broad tread, contributing to a high level of manoeuvrability and stability.

The Toyota GR Supra’s evocative styling is shown to its best effect with a choice of seven different paintwork colours, including strong new Prominence Red, Lightning Yellow and Deep Blue Metallic. An ad- ditional new Matt Storm Grey is featured on the Toyota GR Supra A90 Edition, an exclusive launch model reserved for the first 90 European customers (further details below). This adds extra visual drama and metal-like texture to the car’s curved surfaces with a matt finish and a hint of blue.

COCKPIT CONCEPT: PUTTING THE DRIVER AT THE CENTRE OF THE ACTION The driver’s cockpit in the new Toyota GR Supra neatly combines sports car elements with ultra-modern functionality. Designed to help the driver focus entirely on the business of driving, it is directly influenced by the layout found in single-seater race cars. The low, slim horizontal dashboard maximises the forward view through the windscreen, help- ing the driver place the car with precision in high-speed driving, while the principal controls are tightly grouped for quick and easy operation. The instrument panel, centre console and door trim are combined in a seamless design that gives the cockpit a strong, unified feel. The line of the cockpit flows down into soft, supportive knee pads in the door trim and on the side of the centre console, their shape de- fined with the benefit of TOYOTA GAZOO Racing’s circuit racing expe- rience. AND DESIGN

The head-up display, meters and paddle shifts all sit directly in front of the driver, with additional switches located on the three-spoke steering wheel. The wheel itself is contoured for excellent grip and is wrapped in leather. The 8.8-inch high-definition driver’s instrument display is clearly visible through the steering wheel, with the 3D-ef- fect tachometer and shift indicator positioned in the centre; a digital speed read-out to the left; and infotainment and navigation informa- tion to the right. An asymmetric centre console marks a clear division between the enveloping driver’s cockpit and the more open passenger side of the cabin. Knee pads are provided for the passenger, too. The air condition- ing control panel sits proud of the console with memory-touch switches for easy operation; an 8.8-inch central multimedia display is mounted above the console, operated using a touchscreen or a rotary controller. The boot space is large enough for two people’s luggage for a week- end away and can be extended with a removable panel, creating room for a golf bag or all the personal kit needed for a track day.

RACING-INSPIRED SEATS The new Toyota GR Supra’s seats have a racing-influenced design that ensures comfort at all times and excellent support, in particular if the car is being used on-track. Body-holding side bolsters are featured on the cushion and high back, and there is an integrated head restraint. The upholstery options include full leather and a combination of leather bolsters with a perforated Alcantara covering for the seat back and cushion that provides a degree of air ventilation and additional body-holding performance.

CHASSIS DESIGNED FOR OPTIMUM BALANCE INTENSIVE HANDLING DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME A car’s wheelbase and track dimensions are the first thing to consider High targets were set for the handling performance and these were when starting the design process with a clean sheet of paper. Where achieved in a development programme led by TOYOTA GAZOO Racing the Toyota GR Supra is concerned, these were defined in order to that included extensive testing on a wide variety of challenging roads prioritise the car’s agility and handling. The key calculation is the ratio worldwide. The on-road testing was complemented by sessions on between the wheelbase length and the track. It is widely recognised race tracks, including the Nürburgring Nordschleife. that the best balance of agility and stability is obtained with a ratio of High structural rigidity (greater even than the Lexus LFA ), between 1.5 and 1.6; achieving the 1.55 ‘golden ratio’ was thus the a centre of gravity lower than the GT86 coupe and ideal 50:50 front/
