Abdullah Abdulghani & Bros. Co. (AAB), sole distributor for Toyota vehicles in Qatar are running a special Promotion for Toyota Supra 2020 year model. Anyone buying Supra 2020 will get free service for 3 years or 60,000 KM whatever come first. The offer includes replacement of two sets of front brake pads and one set of rear brake pads and grinding of rotor discs. The offer is valid till end of March 2021.
The Supra name evokes the power, performance, and handling that defined a succession of world-class cars for a quarter of a century, which built a reputation both as formidable performers on the road and all-conquering machines on the racetrack. The GR Supra is the first Toyota global model developed entirely by GAZOO Racing (GR). The 2020 GR Supra is a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive vehicle powered by an inline six-cylinder engine. Extensive attention has also been paid to the fundamental elements of wheelbase, tread, and center of gravity, thus achieving superior handling performance befitting a pure sports car.
The 2020 GR Supra’s 3.0-liter turbocharged engine produces up to 335 hp and 500 Nm of torque. The torque comes on strong even from very low engine speeds, thanks to a combination of a twin-scroll turbocharger, direct fuel injection, and continuously variable timing on both the intake and exhaust camshafts. Engine response is further enhanced thanks to the inline six’s variable intake-valve lift system, which adjusts intake valve timing and duration for optimal performance. The 8-speed automatic transmission delivers speedy up and downshifts, and features paddle shifters for manual control when desired. Short ratios for the lower gears and a launch control function, which is not intended for use on public roads or repeated short interval use, enable powerful acceleration with maximum traction.
The 2020 Supra offers two driving modes, Normal and Sport. The Sport Mode sharpens throttle response, increases steering weight and improves transmission shift crispness. This mode also engages a more aggressive active differential tuning and amplifies the exhaust sound. Meanwhile, Traction Mode can be activated as part of the Vehicle Stability Control System to provide track-driving capability by reducing the intervention of the traction and stability control functions. Launch Control is available only when the vehicle is in Sport and Traction modes.
For performance driving enthusiasts, GR Supra offers an active differential that uses an electric motor and multi-plate clutches to control lateral torque. The active differential precisely controls torque distribution between the rear wheels when cornering under both acceleration and braking, enabling greater momentum through a corner, with stepless variable locking from 0-100 percent. Excellent handling and stability and superior ride comfort are realized through the vehicle’s optimized construction, which incorporates both front double-joint type MacPherson strut suspension and rear multi-link suspension.
The 2020 GR Supra embodies Toyota’s Condensed Extreme design theme, which was first previewed by Toyota in its dramatic FT-1 concept car at the 2014 International Auto Show in Detroit. Condensed Extreme refers directly to the vehicle’s packaging, and comprises three principal elements; a short wheelbase, with large wheels and a wide stance; a taut, two-seat cabin; and a long bonnet with a compact body, which reflects the drivetrain combination of an in-line six-cylinder engine and rear-wheel drive. These elements combine to create a design that is visually appealing to sports car enthusiasts.
The GR Supra design achieves a 50:50 weight distribution while optimizing front-to-rear aerodynamic balance. The frontal design was inspired by the fourth-generation Supra, but has a more expressive look. The vehicle’s low stance is emphasized by a prominent central grille flanked by large air intakes, which are essential for engine cooling. The distinctive headlight units feature a six-lens LED arrangement incorporating the indicators and Daytime Running Lights (DRL). The rear combination lamps feature a purposeful structure with the turn, tail, and stop functions integrated into the distinctive main ring shape. In side view, the low bonnet generates a dynamic line that flows rearwards from the car’s low nose, while the back edge of the bonnet and rear spoiler are set at almost the same height, linked by a low beltline.
As with all Toyota vehicles, safety is paramount. High-tensile and ultra-high-tensile strength steel have been used for the main body-part materials, realizing a lightweight yet highly rigid body that effectively absorbs impact energy. A four-point pop-up hood system is available as well to protect pedestrians in the event of a collision. The 2020 GR Supra advanced safety system is complemented by the available Toyota Safety+. This cutting-edge safety technology package includes Pre-Crash Safety with pedestrian detection, all-speed range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC), Lane Departure Alert (LDA), and Adaptive High Beam System (AHS).
In addition, the car features a comprehensive array of safety and convenience features, such as eight SRS airbags, Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRC), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA), Electronic Parking Brake (EPB), Blind Spot Monitor (BSM), Rear Cross-Traffic Alert (RCTA), Active Cornering Assist (ACA), Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS), and Hill-start Assist Control (HAC), among many others.
