    Toyota GR Supra Finally Gets Manual Offering

    Drivers your prayers have been answered as you can now shift your own gears in the Toyota GR Supra.

    The 2023 model year is here, complete with a clutch pedal. Even before entering the cabin, you can tell it’s the three-pedal model by the red “Supra” lettering on the rear bumper.

    The gearbox was conceived specifically for the 3.0-litre engine, which we all know is borrowed from a certain German automaker.

    Just like the GR Yaris, it is called iMT (intelligent Manual Transmission) and basically, it assists you to get the best out of the manual experience. Engine torque is optimized when you press and then release the clutch pedal during upshifts and “consistent performance” is delivered when downshifting.

    The manual variant will offer better take-off and in-gear acceleration too as it has a final drive ratio of 3.46 as opposed to 3.15 for the automatic version.

    Toyota has also tweaked the suspension and steering as well as the Track mode for easier drifts. Interestingly, there’s now a Hairpin+ function to enable a greater difference in the degree of wheel spin to make twisty roads more enjoyable.

    We are waiting for an official confirmation from Toyota South Africa but we have been informed that they are planning on introducing this three-pedal Supra locally.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
