Toyota GR Supra Supercar concept revealed

Toyota has revealed a clay model of its GR Supra Gen3 Supercar at the Repco Bathurst 1000 as it prepares to link up with Walkinshaw Andretti United for the 2026 season.

The Supra is the Japanese manufacturer’s long-time hero sports car as it joins two storied American models in the Ford Mustang and Chevrolet Camaro on the grid in 2026.

A concept of the Gen3 GR Supra was displayed at Bathurst highlighting Toyota’s commitment to Supercars nearly a month after it announced joining the Repco Supercars Championship.

Designed by the Toyota Design Australia Team led by Nicolas Hogios, the Gen3 Supra is instantly recognisable to the road-going version and was revealed with the number A90, which is the model-code for the current model.

Influences in the Gen3 GR Supra’s design included the FT-1 Supra concept of 2014, while also paying homage to Toyota’s sports car history ranging from the 2000GT, Celica and MR2.

Airflow management has been undertaken although Supercars will complete its own testing.

As Senior manager of Toyota Design Australia, Hogios and his team have been working to complete the initial concept design.

“Our design team has amped up the car significantly, giving fans a fresh perspective of GR Supra performance through a car that instantly looks like it owns the track,” Mr Hogios said.

“We are enthusiasts first and foremost, and the GR Supra Supercar is the kind of project we dream about working on. We can’t wait to see it competing and winning in Supercars, including right here at Bathurst.”

Toyota Australia’s vice president sales, marketing, and franchise operations, Sean Hanley believes the marque’s future Supercars entry further emphasises the GR brand.

“Taking part in the heat of Supercars, as well as other racing and rallying series around the world, provides technical learnings that can be transferred to the development of our entire range of vehicles – not just our sports cars,” Mr Hanley said.

“We are looking forward to building on the passion among enthusiasts for our GR range and to generating interest and excitement among motorsport fans, including those who are new to our brand.

“We are also keen to involve our own people, enabling them to improve their skills and acquire new abilities in the high-pressure teamwork environment that is motorsport.

“The experience gained by our local designers, modellers and engineers with their stunning GR Supra Supercar is a perfect example of what motorsport can help us achieve.”
