Nachfolgend ein paar Auszüge aus dem Test des Supra A90 Prototyps.
Motor.es has recently tested the new generation of Toyota Supra that will reach the market in 2019. The prototype tested was in its latest development phase and the test took place at the Circuito del Jarama and in the Sierra Madrileña, Spain.
...
In its rear part, a double exhaust outlet, embedded in a generous diffuser – with LMP1-like brake lights – completes its sporty design, which is further enhanced by a highly inclined windshield and a double bubble roof. The 19-inch wheels are wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires, sized 255/35 in the front and 275/35 in the rear, like a BMW M4.
...
As expected, there are elements reminiscent of BMW, such as the infotainment screen that crowns the dashboard as well as the quality of some elements that I could see, like the buttons in the central tunnel where we find the Sport mode button and the level of the automatic gearbox. At the moment there will be no manual box for this engine.
...
The new Supra weighs around 1,500 kg, but the final number has not been officially acknowledged.
...
We take turns with the Supra and the GT86. The latter is rougher with more connection from the road to the passenger compartment, yet the Supra feels more powerful.
At the same time, the Supra is surprisingly comfortable, I expected a GT86 superlative, with its hard and demanding touch, but we must remember that the Supra has always been framed between the Coupé and Gran Turismo philosophies – sporty, yet enjoyable daily drivers.
...
With the data we have, we can approximate that it will perform 0 to 100 in less than 5 seconds. When you sink your foot on the accelerator, the Supra shoots forward, with a sound in the passenger compartment enhanced by the audio system inherited from the Germans, and quite discreet from the outside.
...
It is a very agile sports car, with a perfect 50/50 weight distribution, with a center of gravity lower than the GT86 and a torsional rigidity identical to that of the legendary Lexus LFA. It changes trajectory with great ease, very stable also at high speeds. It transmits confidence and it’s very fun.
...
At the moment the weak point I see in the Supra is its sound. The limitation in this part belongs to Toyota, since it has decided to equip a very discreet silencer that does not offer any problems with the legislation.
