Toyota has unveiled its direction for next-generation sports cars with the global debut of the GR Super Sport Concept. Developed by Toyota GAZOO Racing, the race car incorporates hybrid technology developed for Toyota’s TS050 Hybrid that competes in the World Endurance Championship. The newly revealed concept is composed of mostly the same main parts as the TS050 Hybrid, reflecting Toyota GAZOO Racing’s aim to ensure that technologies and know-how acquired in motorsport are fed back into new production vehicles. Beneath the beautifully flowing and original form are a 735kW 2.4-litre twin-turbo V6 engine and a Toyota Hybrid System-Racing powertrain, which have been honed through competition racing. With its high-efficiency electric-vehicle system and lean-burn engine, this next-generation super sports car is set to deliver both ultimate power and environmental performance.
