more efficient and powerful version of the Toyota Seleca

dubbed the Toyota Seleca Supra

  1. or the Toyota A40
  2. referring to Seleca's chassis design platform
  3. a platform on which the Toyota Supra was designed.


In the light of the purpose of competing with other Japanese models

and models at the time;

The first-generation Toyota Supra was characterized by a 2.6-litre

6-cylinder engine with a power of 110 horses


the Toyota Supra wheelbase was increased from Silica Coupe to 5.1 inches so that it

could accommodate the larger engine, and two first-model 

Toyota Supra transmission options were available

They are a 5-speed manual transmission and a 4-speed automatic transmission.

In addition :

Toyota Supra's first-generation design distinguished itself from its predecessor

Silica Coupe

especially with regard to forward design elements.

  • With the end of the first-generation car version in 1981
  • the company developed and replaced
  • the Toyota Supra with a larger 2.8-litre
  • V6 engine capable of generating 116 horsepower.

The second generation of Toyota Supra models came loaded

with new features both for design elements

and performance;

  1. The Toyota Supra chassis was
  2. built on a taller wheelbase than

  • engine was pulling natural air to complete internal combustion
  • generating a horsepower of 200 horsepower
  • while the engine was the then standard

With the option of six-cylinder

3.0-litre dual-cam engine with a twin turbocharger

which qualifies it to generate an enormous horsepower of 230 horsepower

increased the speed of the car.
