Back in the prehistoric days of 2019 — well, it feels like it — Toyota rolled out the GR Supra GT4 EVO, a track-only Supra for the 2020 race season. For a cool (or hot) $194,000, buyers got their hands on a 430 bhp rocket which was designed to dominate the GT4 racing in Europe or the U.S.. Since then, the track-taming machine has been flying under the radar, only popping up in 2023 with a rare street-legal variant.
As whispers swirled about the BMW Z4 — the Supra’s brother from another mother — ending production in 2026, we wondered if the GT4 program was also racing towards the finish line. After all, the Z4 and Supra are practically twins, sharing DNA and rolling off the line together in Austria, thanks to Magna Steyr. If the Z4 calls it quits, it’s not far-fetched to think the Supra might follow suit.
But hold your horses! Toyota’s GR Supra racing squad isn’t waving the white flag just yet. Enter the Toyota GR Supra GT4 EVO2, the latest evolution of the original GT4 EVO from 2020. Toyota Gazoo Racing has spent years gathering intel from their racing customers and has delivered the goods with the EVO2. They’ve fine-tuned the ABS for optimal braking, shaved milliseconds off the downshift time by tweaking the transmission software, and beefed up the cooling systems for the brakes, drivetrain, and cockpit — perfect for when the track heats up, literally.
Ready to make its grand entrance, the 2025 Toyota Supra GT4 EVO2 will hit the tarmac in January 2025 at the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge during the legendary 24 Hours of Daytona. So, if you’ve got $224,633 burning a hole in your pocket and a need for speed, TRD has your next race car on deck.
