What is the History of the Toyota Supra? The Supra has a long history and with the newest release finally announced, it is nice to see where the amazing features that are going to be released in 2020 are coming from. With each release, there is plenty of anticipation and the new 2020 GR Supra is certainly following the same hype. A few models, with their corresponding differing prices, are ready to blow you away. First, it will be nice to know how the Supra got to be what it has become. Read more about the Toyota models leading up to the new 2020 GR Supra, and contact our dealership with any questions. more What is the timeline of the Supra? A40: The story of the Supra goes back as far as 1978. The first was the Celica, which hosts a design that can still stop you in your tracks. The timeless style was for sure to create a line that would be a favorite for decades to come. It was officially the Toyota Celica Supra A40 and came to be from the Celica Liftback. The chassis was then lifted and a 6-cylinder advanced inline engine found its way under the hood. The effort put into creating a comfortable, yet powerful car was obvious from the start. The 1978 Celica has 116 horsepower and went from zero to sixty in 10.2 seconds. Seeing these numbers now do not blow anyone away, but at the time, it was the sign of a true tourer. This model ran from 1978 until 1981. A60: The A60 came next and its iconic headlights might be what stand out most with this one. It ran from 1982 to 1985 and held all of the style you can image of the proper 80s aesthetic. There was an L-type and P-type to choose from, but both had engaging lines in the design that made head turns all of the time. The P-type specifically was the starting ground for picking up the performance standards. The zero to sixty time was lowered to 8.4 seconds and featured 161 horsepower. A70: In 1986 the A70 made its debut. The showstopper when this third generation was released was its turbocharged engine. Technological advances were obvious in the improvements that the A70 brought with it. Horsepower was raised to 232 and it could manage zero to sixty in 6.4 seconds. It sported a 3 liter 7M - GTE engine. In addition, the air induction was variable, which enhanced power and the dampers were electronically adjustable. This model ran until 1993. A80: The aesthetics really took a turn forward with the next model, the A80. It was a piece of art that screamed sports car from whichever direction you looked at it. It was timeless, yet featured modern lines. The technology that was exciting in the last model was only continued in this one as well. There was a 3 liter 2JZ - GTE that impressed everyone who got behind the wheel. The zero to sixty made it to 4.6 seconds and it featured 320 horsepower. The most memorable aspect of the A80 was definitely the style though, which can easily be classified as legendary. What is to Come with the New 2020 GR Supra? With all of the history behind such a storied history, the new 2020 GR Supra is for sure to meet expectations. By numbers, it is going to host 335 horsepower and have a perfect 50/50 weight distribution. The zero to sixty with this one will be a powerful 4.1 seconds and the top speed is an impressed 155 miles per hour. The vehicle itself is going to be 3,397 pounds and will be powered by 365 lb-ft of torque. The 3 liter twin-scroll inline six engine is turbocharged and will be ready to deliver with impressive responsiveness, for whatever handling necessities you throw its way. The perfect 50 - 50 weight distribution was possible because the engine is as low and as far back as possible, meaning that you will be able to take the new Supra wherever you want with the precision to match. The Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires are icing on the car, keeping you right where you want to be throughout whatever venture you go out on. Where can I learn more about the New 2020 GR Supra?

When looking for a new vehicle, most people get wrapped up in  features that don’t really matter. Yes, having a lot of torque or horsepower may seem like a big deal, but unless you happen to be speed racing or doing dangerous stunts with your vehicle, you won’t be using those things at their maximum. What you will always want at its maximum, however, is safety. No matter how safe of a driver you are, accidents can happen at any time, and they usually do so at the most unexpected times. This is when you will want a vehicle that can come with a plethora of features meant to keep you as well as your passengers safe. Thankfully in this day and age of modern technology, there have been many advances that make driving safer and easier to do. Toyota has been known to be a brand that is both versatile as well as very adaptive, and with those traits, they have developed a safety system for their vehicles called Toyota Safety Sense. Designed with the common driver and passenger in mind, the Toyota Safety Sense system was meant to provide maximum protection on the road as well as in the inevitable event of a collision. So when it’s time for you to choose your next vehicle, whether it be for yourself or for your family, choose a vehicle offered from Team Toyota in Baton Rouge that is equipped with Toyota Safety Sense! Let’s get into a little more details about this intelligent safety system can keep the most important part of your vehicle- you and your passengers- safe! Toyota Safety Sense Features Like most technology systems, the Toyota Safety Sense system varies depending on the vehicle it is installed into. For the Toyota Safety Sense system, there are two types: the Toyota Safety Sense P (TSSP) and the Toyota Safety Sense C (TSSC). Midsize to larger vehicles would generally come with TSSP while the smaller, more compact vehicles would have TSSC. Both of these variants of the Toyota Safety Sense system provide premium protection to those inside of the vehicle as well as supply preventative measures against getting into a collision in the first place. The TSSC package is mainly a collaboration of three main features that use a camera as well as a laser to provide great performance and reliability to the vehicle it is equipped on. TSSP uses a combination of an in-vehicle camera and a millimeter-wave radar to enhance performance and functionality of the vehicle. Both packages of the Toyota Safety Sense System have a Pre-Collision System, Automatic High Beams, and Lane Departure Alerts.

An Interior Ready to Perform The interior of the new Highlander is built for your convenience and readily accessible. For those looking to stay plugged in, they are in luck. With 5 USB ports- 3 in the front and 2 in the back- those in the car can keep their devices charged and ready. With the idea of maximum space, the Highlander has seats for up to 8 people in the vehicle so huge groups can be transported. For buyers looking for a roomier option, available captain seats me be added in the second row for fewer but a more spacious seating style. With the platinum package, the second-row captain seats can even be heated seats. When seats are down, the Highlander opens up to a fantastic amount of space. This is aided by the 60/40 third row split so there are a few options on how to put the seats down depending on the shape and size of objects being transported. Driving along the interstate can potentially lead to a high noise level. However, in the Highlander, there are insulating materials along the doors and windows which keep out any unwanted sounds. The front windshield is also an acoustic-type glass that keeps out sounds. On trips, one of the more impressive spectacles is the beautiful blue sky or bright stars above. The panoramic moonroof is huge and allows for all three rows of passengers to have a fantastic view of the above. With kids in the back seats, the group can often times get bored. To aid families in this situation, the passengers can enjoy movies and tv shows through the 9 inch display screen that comes with RCA jacks, a remote, and 2 pairs of wireless headphones. Great Safety Features The Highlander was designed with some wonderful safety features that makes the drive more relaxing and easy in addition to being safe. The Lane Departure Warning with Steering Assist is especially useful while traveling on the interstate. It is fairly common for vehicles to gradually merge into neighboring lanes accidentally. However, the Highlander watches out for this and alerts the driver when they are doing so. If it becomes too severe, the vehicle will automatically be pulled into its own lane. Dynamic Radar Cruise Control makes the cruise control feature even more useful than before. Drivers can have a preset distance between a car in front of them as well as a set speed. If the car in front begins to slow down and the vehicles become to close, the vehicle will adjust the cruise control speed to keep the vehicle at that preset distance. If the vehicle in front begins to move faster, your vehicle will resume its preset speed. Furthermore, automatic high beams give the driver maximum visibility to help avoid and detect anything that could cause an issue from far away.
