2026 Toyota GR Supra MkV Final Edition: A Track-Bred Farewell to a Legend
Born and bred on the track, the GR Supra represents Toyota’s relentless pursuit of motorsports excellence. For the 2026 model year, Toyota honors the fifth-generation icon with the GR Supra MkV Final Edition, marking the end of an era with refined performance and exclusive styling.
A Legacy Reborn
After a 17-year hiatus, the Supra made its dramatic return in 2019 thanks to Toyota President Akio Toyoda, aka "Morizo." The MkV generation quickly made its mark—proving itself on everything from winding roads to world-class circuits like the Nürburgring, and earning credibility in competitions such as Formula Drift, Super Taikyu, and the Nürburgring 24 Hours.
Every GR vehicle must earn its badge, and the Supra did just that—through rigorous testing and input from Toyota GAZOO Racing engineers, including Morizo himself.
