Can the rumors be true? Is Toyota actually reviving the beloved Supra? Sources say that YES, the Supra is coming back and it will be better than ever. While details are sparse, we were able to find out a little more about the revival of the sporty car.
2017 Toyota Supra Coming Soon
The new Supra is rumored to be built in a joint venture with German car company BMW. The Toyota Supra was loved for the smoothness of its inline six-cylinder engine. Unfortunately, that balanced engine design has mostly faded from use because it is long, which makes it hard to use in transverse front-drive vehicles. So there are a few changes to overcome before the new Supra will be available to the public.
Toyota has been working on the project for several years in partnership with BMW. The Japanese company gave the first suggestion of its idea for the car the 2014 Detroit motor show, when it revealed the FT-1 concept. Without giving away any too many specifics engineers say that the Supra will be different from any other sports car, boasting new hybrid powertrain technology never used before by Toyota.
