Toyota built the turbocharged 22R-TE for just two model years, 1986 and 1987, and it was built specifically as a stopgap answer to the V6 Nissan was cramming into its own Hardbody. The force-fed 2.4-liter four churned out 135 horsepower and 173 lb-ft of torque,…
For years Toyota had no sports car worth discussing, and enthusiasts never let the company forget it. Under Akio Toyoda, a racing driver himself, Gazoo Racing changed that. The GR86, co-developed with Subaru and sharing its flat-four engine and chassis with the BRZ, arrived in 2012 as the 86, sold in America as a Scion at first, and returned in a second generation for 2022 with more torque and the same rear-drive purity. It remains one of the last affordable cars sold with a manual gearbox and a genuine sense of humor.
The Supra name carries heavier baggage. The fourth-generation car of the 1990s, with its twin-turbocharged straight six, became a tuning-culture icon and a movie star. When the fifth generation arrived for 2020, purists bristled that it was co-developed with the BMW Z4 and used a BMW engine; drivers mostly forgave it once they felt the chassis, and a manual gearbox was added later. Toyota has signaled that this generation is reaching the end of its run.
This page also follows the GR Corolla, a turbocharged all-wheel-drive hot hatch, and Toyota's sporty future: a new GR GT flagship, racing prototypes that look suspiciously like a reborn mid-engine MR2, and a new family of turbocharged engines designed to power the next wave. Rivals include the Mazda MX-5 Miata, Ford Mustang, Nissan Z, BMW M2 and Honda Civic Type R. Expect reveals, spy shots, final editions, track tests and collector-market news on older Supras.
