Toyota has unveiled what could be the swansong of the A90 Supra, the Final Edition, a version that's sharper, louder, and stronger than ever before. But before Indian enthusiasts grab their cheque books, here's the catch: it's not coming here. Or to the UK, for that matter. Limited to just 300 units worldwide, this one's reserved for select markets only.
So, what are we missing out on?
Well, quite a lot actually. The A90 Supra Final Edition is powered by a 3.0-litre inline-six sourced from BMW, yes, still, but with more of everything. Power is up to 429 bhp at 6000 rpm, and torque peaks at 570Nm at 4800 rpm. That's a healthy gain over the standard model, thanks to revised ECU mapping, a new intake, and a low-pressure catalyst. There's also a baffled oil pan, which keeps everything lubricated when you're cornering like your life depends on it.
The Supra Final Edition sends all that muscle to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox, no auto option and an active rear differential tuned for better exit traction. Cooling is improved, too, and the noise? That comes courtesy of an Akrapovic titanium exhaust, which promises more bark to match the bite.
Chassis Tuning from the Track
Underneath, there's a KW suspension with adjustable damping, 16 stages of rebound, 12 of compression, derived from the Supra GT4 race car. The chassis is stiffer thanks to GT4-style rear bracing, upgraded stabilisers, and reinforced front mounts.
Add to that Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres, sized 10mm wider than stock, wrapped around 19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheels, and braking handled by Brembo callipers with track-ready pads and braided hoses. You can expect serious grip and even sharper turn-in.
Aero Tweaks and Cabin Drama
Visually, it's all function over flair. A carbon fibre splitter with canards, a removable bonnet vent, and a swan-neck rear wing hint at downforce gains. It won't pass for a 911 GT3 or Alpine A110 R, but it's got just enough visual menace.
Inside, it's a tale of Recaro Podium carbon bucket seats, Alcantara everything, and a dramatic driver-focused red zone; the seat, door card, and transmission tunnel are wrapped in red Alcantara. Even the steering wheel gets the Alcantara treatment with a central stripe.
But Why Not India?
Toyota's reasoning is a combination of ZEV (Zero Emission Vehicle) mandates and cost justification. With markets like the UK facing penalties for missing EV targets, and the Supra already off sale there, the Final Edition simply didn't make the cut.
Still, Toyota insists this isn't the end for the Supra badge. The Final Edition refers to the A90 generation only. A new Supra is in early development stages, though whether it'll remain petrol-powered or go hybrid, or even EV, remains to be seen.
