2022 Toyota GR Supra 3.0 Premium - Review by Mark Fulmer
Very Cool and Better than Ever

This edition of the GR Supra 3.0 gets a 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine putting out 382 hp, and even with all those horses, it still manages better fuel economy than the other stallions in that breed. Like a cutting quarterhorse, it can make moves at all speeds and settles into a steady gallop easily. Alright alright, enough with the equine analogy.
For stopping power the Supra 3.0 employs Brembo brakes with four-piston calipers attached to 19-inch forged wheels. This trim also includes brushed stainless steel exhaust tips instead of chrome ones.
There is also a JBL sound system with 12 speakers which when used for music from classical to rock do just that, they rock.
Inside there are heated black leather seats with14-way power-adjustability. They look cool and feel great.
Front Head Room 38.3 in.
Front Hip Room 54.2 in.
Front Leg Room 42.2 in.
Front Shoulder Room 54.4 in.
In the way of cargo space, a 10.2 cubit foot area to be precise.
This trim also has wireless Apple CarPlay compatibility and one of my favorite driver assists: a color heads-up display where you can see your current speed, navigation info, check available Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC) 169 settings, and more.
Safety and driver assistance includes adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and parking sensors with a low-speed emergency braking function, as well as:
Electronic Stability Control (ESC).
ABS and Traction Control.
Lane Departure Alert.
Lane Keep Assist.
Rear Cross-Traffic Warning.
Steering Assist.
If your passion is a sports car with muscles and moves, test the new Supra before putting your name on the dotted line.
