“This is the classic Toyota sports car that racing enthusiasts have demanded – equally at home on the track as it is on the open road or the city street, aggressively styled to convey its authentic performance credentials, and loaded with features and amenities that will remind every Supra owner just how much fun driving can be,” said Cyril Dimitris, Vice-President, Toyota Canada Inc.
The 2020 Toyota GR Supra is an iconic marque from Toyota’s history, brought forward into the future. This two-seater sports coupe is the first Toyota to earn the “GR” badge – signifying that it has been track tested and fine-tuned by GAZOO Racing, Toyota’s in-house motorsports team, which counts Toyota’s global president, Akio Toyoda, amongst its drivers.
Canadians can purchase a fully-equipped Supra, 335 horsepower, 3.0-litre engine with 365 lb.-ft of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters launches the Supra from 0-96 km/h in 4.1 seconds. The 2020 GR Supra features an upgraded 8.8-inch, wide-format touchscreen display with Navigation, Toyota Supra Connect and wireless Apple CarPlay compatibility. It also includes a premium 12-speaker JBL audio system, a colour Head-Up Display and heated, leather-trimmed seats.
The 2020 GR Supra is equipped with a deft balance of function, premium comfort and convenience features. Keyless Smart Entry, dual automatic climate control, 14-way power seats with adjustable side bolster, rear camera, rain-sensing windshield wipers, adaptive front lighting, power-folding mirrors and a leather-wrapped steering wheel are standard.
A full suite of safety features includes forward-collision warning, automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection and bicycle detection, lane departure warning with steering assist and automatic high beams. Additional safety features include full-speed adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitor, rear cross-traffic alert and parking sensors with emergency braking functions.

The 2020 GR Supra is fitted with an extensive list of standard features, starting with a 425-Watt 12-speaker Premium JBL Display Audio system with 8.8-inch screen, integrated Sirius XM Satellite Radio and untethered Apple CarPlay.

The Supra is a performance machine – but it’s also intended to be a daily driver. Standard heated sport seats clad in premium leather feature an integrated head restraint and a narrow main section that combines with generous shoulder bolsters to firmly hold the driver and passenger/navigator. A lightweight composite hatch opens to reveal a smartly trimmed luggage area with space for track tools or bags for a weekend getaway.

These include dual-zone automatic climate control, carbon-fibre interior trim, a leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel, a smart key system with push-button start, aluminium scuff plates, integrated garage door opener, 14-way power driver and passenger seats with seat memory systems and power-adjustable side bolsters and lumbar support, auto-dimming power-adjustable and heated exterior mirrors linked to the driver’s seat memory system, and more.
