Toyota Supra GRNM: The next generation of the iconic sports car with a 550-hp BMW M4 CSL engine?

The Toyota Supra has been an icon of Japanese cars since its launch in the 1980s. The latest version of the Supra boasts a stunning design and BMW-powered mechanics, but many fans believe the car hasn't evolved as much as it should have after years of using the 2JZ-GTE engine. However, Toyota is expected to release a refresh of the Supra in the near future that will provide the ultimate performance boost.

Unlike the Supra MK4, which became a legend thanks to its extremely reliable and highly customizable engine, the current Supra comes in two engine options: a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 with 258 hp and a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6 with 340 hp. While the latter is more appealing and offers the option of a manual transmission, some critics believe it's still inferior to its main rival, the Nissan GT-R.

Recently, however, there have been rumors that Toyota will launch the Toyota Supra GRMN powered by the BMW M4 CSL. This update would be much more powerful, with a 3.0-liter twin-turbo inline-6 engine producing 550 hp and 650 Nm of torque. The GRMN name comes from Gazoo Racing Meister of Nürburgring, according to Japanese website Best Car.

The A90 Supra is expected to receive a complete overhaul with this update, including improvements to the chassis, suspension, and a possible weight reduction with new interior elements. This would be a long-awaited update for Supra fans, as it would mark a major step forward in the car's evolution. Furthermore, it is expected to be one of the last versions with combustion engines, as the next generation of the Supra could switch to an electric motor.
