Overview
- An official Japanese commercial shows the car badged as GR GT on track with the 2000GT and Lexus LFA under the tagline “The Soul Lives On,” confirming the production name from the GR GT3 Concept.
- Toyota’s GR site hosts a countdown pointing to a December 5 reveal, though one outlet reports December 4, highlighting a minor date discrepancy in coverage.
- Reporting states the supercar uses a new twin-turbo V8, with hybrid assistance expected, marking a shift from the LFA’s naturally aspirated V10.
- Teaser imagery indicates a design closely mirroring the 2022 GR GT3 Concept with LFA-like hood vents, high-mounted side intakes, full-width rear lights, and an integrated ducktail.
- Earlier prototype previews at Goodwood showed a cabin with red leather and Alcantara, carbon-fiber bucket seats, and a large touchscreen, as the model is positioned as Gazoo Racing’s flagship with potential North American sales.
