The supra is one of the most well-known cars in the world and thanks to it managed to reach a state of worship where everyone wants to have one. Unfortunately, however, Toyota decided that it is better that they can discontinue the model completely and since the beginning of the 2000s, the car has not had a successor, which is disappointing and strange because they could have sold many of them.
Rumors about a new model began to emerge on the surface since Toyota showed the predecessor of the FT-1 concept in 2007. Here we have almost a decade in the future, and there is no supra in the market, but according to some reports, This is about to change.
RELEASE DATE
This is mainly because Toyota is developing the car in cooperation with BMW in a new rear-wheel drive platform. While the platform and its engines have been prepared for some time, BMW has not finished developing next Z4, so they had to postpone the next Toyota FT-1 2016 at least until the end of the year. This will surely give them more time to finish the car, but it also means that Toyota is losing enough because people are becoming the new Porsche Cayman and the AMG GT models.
2016 Toyota FT-1 Price
While this could be surprising for some, the two cars have approximately the same price level with the next supra that will be a true sports car and not just another GT86, which is good, but it is not great. It will be interesting to see the price of the new generation, but we hope it will turn approximately $ 50,000.

In order to feed the next supra, Toyota cooperated with BMW, which lent the 3.0-liter BMW 6-liter online engine that will probably be offered in the supra with two different output figures. It is expected that the base model use a single turbocharger that offers up to 350 horsepower and torque 350 lb-ft. The upper model of the range will use a turbocharged twin variant of the same engine that could develop up to 500 horsepower, more than enough to allow the car to compete with all its rivals.

Many rumors also stated that the supra will use a hybrid motive train, but this seems highly unlikely, mainly because the Toyota FT-1 2016 would become too expensive to be a successful car. A 6-speed manual is expected to be offered at the base cutting level, but it is likely that the highly powerful automobile turkish version is available with the seven BMW speeds, automatic double clutch or with an eight source ZF. Speed, fast enough for FT-1.
