Toyota teases Super GT Supra ahead of its debut at Tokyo Auto Salon

KUALA LUMPUR: The new year is definitely going to be a treat for all of the automobile enthusiasts around the world. Toyota, the Japanese automaker, has teased the Supra Super GT ahead of its debut at the 2019 Tokyo Auto Salon. The teaser came in the form of a dark-themed image that showed just the silhouette of the car on a smoky background.

This teaser might come as a bit of a surprise for many of the people who keep a keen eye on the automobile shows and debuts as the production-ready version of the street-spec Supra has still not been revealed. It is scheduled to be unveiled at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January.

Aesthetically, even though the teaser image is just of the silhouette and is in complete darkness, the little things that are visible are good enough to say that the upcoming Toyota Supra Super GT will carry a huge makeover. The rear wing appears to be big and the diffuser looks massive. The wheel arches appear to be very beefy too.

Cometh the Tokyo Auto Salon and Toyota Gazoo Racing will have on display the entire lineup up its sleeve, based on the theme that goes like - “From Past to Future”. However, it is highly unlikely that the actual production model of the GR Supra will be making a debut at this event while being unveiled in Detroit almost at the same time.

Hence, be it at different auto shows that the street version and race Super GT would be unveiled at, January 2019 will surely be very exciting. So we wait (with bated breath) for 11th and 12th of January for the Tokyo Auto Salon and Detroit Motor Show respectively.
