Toyota 86 With 700HP Supra Engine Attacks The Track Sideways

The drifting ability of the Toyota 86 has always been one of the reasons the compact sports coupe is a favorite of car enthusiasts, so we couldn't let this particular example slip by. Before checking it out in action going sideways at a track in Germany, let's see what makes it so special. With drifting being its main purpose, this Toyota 86 is equipped with a hydraulic handbrake, too. Looking on the tuner's website reveals different performance upgrades for the 86 and its Subaru twin, the BRZ. The most extreme (apart from an engine switch, that is) lifts the output of the stock engine to over 500PS (493hp / 368kW) by turbocharging it and upgrading its internals.


New Toyota Supra will have lighter, cheaper four-cylinder engine

ToyotaPrevious iterations of the Toyota Supra carried two engine options -- a naturally aspirated one, and a turbocharged one. That probably won't be the case this time around, but there will be two different engines on offer. The next-generation Toyota Supra will pack two different engines, a four-cylinder and a six-cylinder, Road & Track reports. Toyota already confirmed that the Supra would have an inline-6, but a new document and subsequent confirmation from Toyota shows that a four-banger will be on order, as well. Tada told R&T that not only will the four-cylinder Supra be lighter with "better weight distribution," it'll be cheaper.

That Toyota GR Supra Racing Concept Apparently Cost $2 Million to Build

referring to Image: ToyotaToyota apparently spent about $2 million on the GR Supra Racing Concept it brought to the Geneva Motor Show in March, which doesn't sound outrageous since it marked the long-awaited revival of, well, the Supra. But it actually is baffling, considering how little the concept car has done in five months. (There are no prices for the street version yet, and we as a general public still haven't even seen the car. Speaking of racing games, the first actual specs we learned about the concept came from a racing game. Real or not real, a $2-million concept car is a tiny fish in Toyota's large, large sea of cash.
