The Toyota Supra rejoined the Toyota lineup in 2019 as the 2020 GR Supra and Latino Traffic Report (LTR) got the chance to review it then and two years later. This month, a third GR Supra arrived for a test drive, the 2025 3.0 Premium. It reaffirmed itself as Toyota’s halo car.
The Supra has evolved over the years, adding a four-cylinder version and increasing power on the six-cylinder to its current level in 2021, and most significantly, offering a six-speed manual transmission option in 2023. It’s still available today, the four-cylinder, however, is not, but the model tested by LTR came with an eight-speed automatic transmission matched to the twin turbo, six-cylinder inline engine that can produce 382 horsepower, 368 lb.–ft. of torque and a zero-to-60 mph acceleration of 3.9 seconds. It’s that kind of 
acceleration that automatically generates a smile. The automatic transmission also comes with paddle shifters on the steering column for added sportiness, especially on a curvy road like Austin’s FM 2222.
Versatility and convenience are the Achilles Heel to a sports car, e.g. it’s cramped, there’s little storage, it’s hard to get in and out of (even in 2020 when I was a bit younger), and setting the presets for radio and Sirius XM wasn’t intuitive. But it is FUN TO DRIVE and with a sports car, that what matters most, plus it’s a head-turner. 
Besides its power, like a sports car, the Supra sits on a stiff ride, specifically a double joint-type MacPherson front and multi-link independent rear suspension. Additional adjustments come from the Adaptative Variable Suspension, selecting the Sport mode, or engaging the Individual settings to fine tune it even more. Steering is tight and responsive.
The test model also came with hazelnut Alcantara leather seating and accents on the steering wheel, which was an improvement on the all-black interiors of the models that were tested previously.
While the design has remained largely the same, in an if-it-ain’t-broke-don’t-fix-it way, there have been come enhancements and if you’re looking for a sports car, the Supra lives up to its legend. But you better hurry; 2026 will be the last model year.
To mark its adiós, Toyota will introduce the GR Supra MkV Final Edition. To wear the GR badge, a vehicle must pass through rigorous testing by Toyota GAZOO Racing engineers. The final edition will come closest to embracing that racing heritage with chasis and suspension modifications, improved cornering, and a strengthened front stabilizer.
Pricing for the 2025 Supra starts at $58,695. The as-tested price came to $61,930.
Sí: The 2025 GR Supra captures its sporty heritage with impressive acceleration and handling that makes it fun to drive.
No: Like most sports cars, it’s cramped, hard to get in and out of, and has limited cargo room.
