New Toyota Supra: all the latest on the 2018 sports car

Toyota Supra design previewed in exclusive images ahead of planned launch in 2018

Sixteen years after it went out of production, the Toyota Supra is due for a comeback in 2018 - and our exclusive images preview how it could look when it goes on sale.

トヨタ「新型スープラ」は2018年に帰ってくる！

The new flagship Toyota sports car is expected to arrive in 2018 and is being developed in conjunction with BMW – it’ll share its platform with the German marque’s upcoming Z4 replacement.

The car is likely to borrow some design aspects from the FT-1, Toyota’s 2014 concept car. Underneath the camo it appears the production Supra borrows the FT-1 concept’s strong central nose, jutting out from beyond the bonnet. It sits above a new front bumper with three large air intakes.

The latest testing spy shots at the Nurburgring show a bit more of the coupe's profile too, as well as the fixed 'ducktail' spoiler. A Pair of small taillights sit below it – a nod to the original Supra – while two large exhaust exits poke out on each corner of the rear bumper, similar to the GT86.

Hybrid power on the cards for new Supra

Senior Toyota sources have also given the strongest hint yet that the company’s new Supra sports car could feature hybrid power.

The new Supra is likely to sit above the GT86 when it arrives in 2018. The cooperation between Toyota and BMW is said to have focused on chassis development, so engine and transmission choices will likely differ - and that's where the possibility of a Toyota petrol/electric hybrid engine comes in.

When asked if Toyota’s quest to have a hybrid or plug-in hybrid vehicle in every market sector would extend to sports cars, Toyota Europe president and CEO Johan van Zyl said: “I would imagine that in the future that will definitely happen." “We already have some sporting models with hybrid powertrains on the Lexus side. But on the Toyota side, I think we will find that if we can have a World Endurance Championship racing car with hybrid technology, it can happen on a road car.”

He added: “I do not have any doubt whatsoever that in the longer-term future there will be a real Toyota sports model using electrification.”
