Toyota GR Supra 2.0-litre review: better than the 3.0-litre?

.............................................................
This is the all-new 2.0-litre Toyota Supra!
No, that’s not a typo. There’s a new 2-litre 4 cylinder Supra in town! So we just have one question: Why?!
Toyota’s official line is that it offers a cheaper entry point for people wanting to get their hands on a Supra, which it does. So those of you looking to get a brand new Supra for less than £50,000 will now be able to. However, rather than being graced with the 340hp & 500Nm the 3-litre offers you, you’ll have to make do with 258hp and 400Nm.
However, there’s one big factor you need to consider - it’s only £6,000 less than the 3-litre! So with that in mind, is it really worth it? Or should you just save up a little bit more and go for the 3-litre? Mat’s here to find out!

Hey Mat here. Does size matter 😂?
Yes definitely 😂😂😂
yeah in bed..
Depends on the torque and thrust power. 😁😆
Yesssss
no
So this supra has 3hp less than the GR Yaris? Never thought i would see the day where a yaris has more power than a supra
And the new BRZ (so GT86 too) has a 2.4L engine as standard Never thought I'd see the day when the 86 would have a bigger engine than the Supra.
Supras are meant to be modified. Ppl can't mod the supra if it already has a big hp from the factory.
@@dhzzzzzz All cars can be modified. Just because its a supra, does not mean its an excuse for Toyota to give the Supra cheap Corolla parts just because they think its "meant to be modified".
What?
@@razmann4k The passat has 280hp so.... nothing surprises me anymore
4:30 the way he throws those suitcases... Reminds me of my wife when she realized that our trip to Tahiti was actually a 1st April joke
Ahaha
At least you're still married
😬
Wow, that's awesome.The my "best" april fools joke I've ever done was laying on the floor in a dark room waiting for my significant other to come in and turn on the lights and then I simulated a massive seizure. Hehe, I slept alone for a good while
kzhead.info/sun/iZeRXaailperooU/bejne.html
The 2L should of came with an optional manual trans to justify its existence.
And make it even much lighter . At least there is an argument that a lighter car with a smaller engine gives you absolute agility in cornering and braking ability. But the mechanics will probably like the 4 cylinders due to more working room for them.
@@fleurdewin7958 and since its a bmw it will be with the mechanics quite often
Add twin turbo and nos injection
It really should have, the 2L Z4 (which you clowns always like to make jokes about) has a manual option
@@fleurdewin7958 the manual transmission is coming for the supra
I think they did a fine job making this 4cyl version. I'm always a fan of variety, whether it's a 2.0L Supra or 2.3L EcoBoost Mustang. The more options buyers have, the better. Something for everyone!
I think Mat is the only KZheadr who can advertise (carwow) during his presentation without disturbing the video.

Jsn a few
Jsn you are
matt must be packing heat
Impressive 0-60 considering the power and rear wheel drive 👍
I like it. You just dont need the big engine unless you go on a track, and 4.8 to 60 is nothing to scoff at.
Better on track though ? So much lighter than b58. Just less power but more fun handling wise

Matt when meeting Doug Demuro: Hi there Matt Watson here from Carwow!! Meanwhile Doug: Before I get started make to check out Cars and Bids!!
HI GUYS, I'M SHMEEEEEEEE!
Never really got in to Doug. Don't recommend worked a treat.
Would love to see Mat and Doug have a Zoom chat or something. Maybe on his other KZhead channel?
Hv you can come
Quirks and features
It seems fairly good to drive and the missing weight helps there... so an after market exhaust could fix the sound issue .... but it still needs to be much cheaper before I'd consider it.
9:23 Respect to that Swift Camera car following the drift lol
The 4cyl 2.0L is mostly to globalize the Supra. In countries where engine capacity based taxation is prominent, 3.0L entails in alot of tax compared to the 2.0.L. The pricing is also more reasonable in that manner.
Toyota in the past has produced 2 liter Supra cars but it tends to have the Celica or GT86 as a 2 liter car. I surprised they did not call the GT86 a Celica to keep with the previous tradition.
Just wrote a comment on this. In Serbia 3.0L is taxed 1000e+ per year while 2.0L is around 250e on average.
@@nonikita in Italy the 2.0 is 706€/y, the 3.0 is a damned 2138€/y in taxes (plus 22% VAT if bought new)
6:50 Film Crew: Why has the tripod melted? Mat: I put it in the engine bay. Film Crew: 🤦
😂😂😂
9:20 is the camera guy driftin in a swift?! 😳😳
your vids are getting quite entertaining love the brutal honesty to show the faults
So you lose parking sensors, full leather, heads up display, nearly 100bhp, a decent noise and loads of other stuff just to save £6000? Pointless car.
🙈🙈🙈🙈🙈
But it would cost less to get custom made exhaust tuned with air filter and chipped enough change left over to send your other half on holiday for two weeks in Skegness while you have time to your self with your car lol
I think its made for other countries like indonesia that has crazy tax regulations for cars over 2L in displacement
@@291_albertohans2 and also for countries like malaysia, Singapore and many more
Not really, the 3.0 has a combined fuel cycle of 32mpg, the 2.0 has a combined cycle of 38mpg. Then there’s the reduce co2 emmisons that effect tax costs. Admittedly, mpg isn’t an exact science but the 2.0 offers much of the benefits of the 3.0 but will be significantly cheaper to run.
The zero to 60 and quarter mile is impressive. I think if it was a little cheaper it would be a winner because we all know you can tune that car to be close to as fast as the stock 3.0L
You can tune it to far surpass the 3 L
@@PoncesPoint You can tune any car to surpass any car
I love this 4cyl supra because its gonna depreciatelike crazy so i might afford one some day :)
TRUEE 😂😂😂😭
Don’t get too excited. I own the 2.0 and it’s a beloved keeper. I think most owners are going to hang on to their Supra’s long term. It’s really a lot of performance, style, and luxury for sub $50k
4:20 Mat is definitely qualified to work at an airport ... Ahaha
Jbu je také
4:20 lmao
Do drag gr Yaris vs 2.0L zupra. Should be interesting
It will be close coz yaris has awd so it has a advantage from launch and low speeds where as supra 2.0L has a ZF transmission which shifts quick supra also has more torque and the hp is also underated so that would be no doubt interesting to watch
@@Venom165khan Yaris is fwd yeh?
@@shaham3415 awd or 4x4 dont know tbh
@@shaham3415 it's AWD
@@Venom165khan but mine is rwd
9:23 I love that the camera car is trying to keep up
Great review as always mat keep it coming 😎
*I think it would've been a really interesting result if Toyota decided to use the LC 500 chassis for the new Supra, tbh*
too expensive and too big
and not the right segment
*Very bold of you to assume that, tbh*
Though the LC is an amazing GT car, the size would most likely kill the character of the supra
ah yes, just like the old times
9:22 The real legend there is in the swift drifting
The swift isn't drifting, he is just driving circles
I noticed that too !
Gg you
Actually the GR badge on the back is in different sidea depending on the engine.
great video.you killed me when you drift and the fast furious music comes in... xD ok enough siliness hahaha nice car as well !
9:23 I was actually just watching Tokyo Drift a couple minutes ago lmao
Is dat a swift??????
9:23 Hi Swift 😍☺️
Ugg boots and hg je dobře
Hb in what you
the 2L is also 300 pounds lighter over the front wheels - that's why the turn in felt snappier. the 2L is the best option for autocrossing
Liked the BGM when Matt was drifting the Supra. Looked the part :).
Get rid of the 4 cylinder Supra, just make a Celica
This is it. Call it whatever you want in your head, this is basically like the A60 twins.
Really hoping for a celica come back. RWD or AWD would be nice Toyota.
@@GSXRWayne If it is RWD I would def get one in the future
The 4 cylinder supra was the one winning all the races in the 90s. Although the motor in this car is nowhere near as capable as the 3s.
4:18 Mat has started treating even suitcases like the cars and load covers
1 like = 1 prayer for the suitcases 🙏
Jb weld on my
I love this video, especially the Tokyo Drift tribute!
I'm only here to hear Matt talking and his comedy's, never gets boring😂
torn clothes of Mat. Simplicity and perfection. This guy just doing his work and doesn't show up himself. That's why I love Mat Watson ❤️
Matt did the 1/4 in 12.5secs in the 3L Supra and hit the 60mph in 4.0secs
Footage looks really good. Little more contrasty.
that color combo is dope though, would love that exact car with the 6.
9:22 This is it boys, he's the chosen one.
The engine sounds like a Corolla from the 80's what is a good thing... in a Corolla from the 80's and not in a Supra from last year.
Lol a 1,3 2E from a EE80 sounds better than this, stock
Jb hunt and have
@@piuthemagicman yeah or the 4AGE
Car looks great! Decent review. Would be great if u could do a review of the new bmw 128ti
Carwow. I just watched one of your old videos and realised you stopped doing 360 view videos to see the visibility. Please bring it back.
It's actually really quick 😮 I wouldn't be too bummed if I couldn't stretch to the six and had to settle for this.
Mat buddy! Work on your channel as well, we love that one and all it’s simplicity!
Savage
Yg a few
Part of the 100kg difference might come from the 3.0 having a ZF transmission rated for the higher torque. Beefier internals, etc.
Given the cool 4 wheel drive and power modes of the GR Yaris. I’d rather have that.
Love Mat trying to hide his bias 😂 “let’s see if the size matter” even though he’s just said just pay the extra 😂
I've been waiting for this car thnx mat for the review you're a PHENOMENAL 1 my mate
Hv you can
Speaking as a technician all the “spare space” in the engine bay he seems to be complaining about is a GOD SEND when you’re working in there.
Mat, how do you install the gopro behing the steering wheel?
I started vibing when the song came and then it ended
I turned down the volume when it started
Matt was so pissed during this whole review😂💀
😂
And talking sex jokes, maybe his gf has a period?
@@karlo1507 Nope, Matt clearly prefers larger size.
Yg in a little
@@Neojhun Matt's a size queen, he should change his drag queen shirt 😂
thank you for the honest review! Ill have to do more research but It almost feels better to buy the cheaper 2.0L and modify its engine under the extra 6k for the 3.0L. I plan on investing in a 2.0L after college with enough hard work!
Omg. Your metaphor at the start of the video ...hilarious. Greetings from Germany 👍
Would love to see a review of all the skylines like you did with the Toyota
He's being paid by Toyota
Hey kid, skyline hasn't been a thing for a decades
@@DuBstep115 no the old skylines
@@thomasevans305 Go watch a history channel
I like to see one with the Mitsubishi Evolutions.
Hey Mat, let is see Drag Race between the 6 cylinder and the 4 cylinder versions.
Resolution is crazy respect ❤️
Agreed. Personally if you're in the market for the Supra, get the 3.0. However, how about dropping the 2.0 Supra and throwing its engine in the new BRZ/86? Sure, might add a bit more weight, but the 86/BRZ chassis has been touted for its handling. It would drive the price up a bit, but I believe if you're already spending near $30K for a BRZ/86, the Supra's 2.0 engine would be a perfect candidate.
Can we have a drag race with Mat in the four popper with a light tune, and Yani in the inline six with winter tires, boot full of luggage and a passenger? 😂
Can get a M2 competition for the same price as this 🤣 faster, drives better and more practical
Not new
@@DuBstep115 I did, £46k brand new.£13k discount where as they barely discount a Supra
"Not as reliable though" said a non-car guy..
@@fakhararestaurant506 BMW sorted out most of his problems in the last few years,just like Nissan did with the GT-R. But prices went up, just like the GT-R. The only weakness BMW has now is the transmission, just like the GT-R.😁😅
BUT it's mainstream
Matt can you do a review on the Toyota Highlander and compare the Europe / UK 4 cylinder hybrid with the 3.5 V6
You can get exhaust pops on 2.0L also, when you put it in sport
Can u review a Honda vezel btw love ur vids
Look for ‘CarWow Honda HRV’ it’s the same car.
I honestly like the 4cyl sound, reminds me of Golf R, with a good exhaust it wouldn't be bad. I mean sure it doesn't have the rich harmonics of the 6cyl, but still decent.
Golf R sounds like trash lol...best sounding 4cylinders right now probably belong to i30N and Focus ST. (I am talking about stock exhausts)
@@BlitzkriegRap Aber bestimmt nicht in Serie..
Golf r sounds horrible even for a 4 cylinder car
The golf 7 and 7.5 and 8 sound like mad garbage, but the MK6 sounds great. Esp. with a swapped exhaust and an ECU tune. One of my fav 4cyl sounds. From mk7 it went downhill. i30n is mad too, sounds awesome. Focus ST also sounds good.
it's kinda like saying that front wheel drive feels good because somebody never tried rear wheel drive. I'll take electric any day over a 4 cylinder
Hey Mat. Is the 2l Supra housing a BMW engine as well? If not, or if so regardless... It would be nice to see a head2head against a G20 320i/ 420i and this 2l Supra
When you started drifting and the Tokyo drift music started playing I thought my phone was ringing cause it's my ringtone so I rushed to answer it and knocked over my coffee, thanks .....
Most importantly that engine can easily deliver 320. It’s a missed opportunity for the car, the A45s a great example of what can be achieved with 4 cylinders
8:35 - leet quarter mile time for a stock 4 cylinder 👍
Gg in what way
That Tokyo Drift intro track still gives me goosebumps. I ffing love that movie.
Its a shame that fast and furious stopped being about the love for cars. Tokyo Drift is the best fast and furious IMO.
@@MrAssault889 Music cars and setting wise it's my favorite too.
The notification in mats phone IS THE SAME AS MINEEEE
This would be a winner if they released this in a manual version
4,84 to 60 and 13,37 for a quarter mile. Good results based on horsepower & weight and more than enough to have fun. I own the 2.0 since September 2020. Great car in every respect. Sorry for my formulation. I'm from Germany. The ones who build the supra engine 😉
You are from Germany and you did not go with a BMW or VW?
@@bighands69 The new Z4 looks boring as hell. The Supra is beautiful.
Germany shouldn't be building them though. I don't know why you act like that's a point of pride. The car is hated. As long as you like it though, that's what matters. I just think it's supremely underpowered.. even the 3 liter. Sure does look nice though.
@@Logan_93 That has nothing to do with pride. That's why I put a smiley after it. I love my 2.0. For me it's perfect although the engine is from Germany 😅
@@larstegtmeier432 Why even mention where it's made if it were not a point of pride for you? Nothing wrong with being proud to be German. Germans are a great people with a rich history and culture. I'm half German myself. All I'm saying is that these unreliable engines aren't really a point of pride. I'm jealous though, I'd still love to own one. Take good care of it!
I like what Toyota and their Sister brand Lexus are doing these days. I’d love to see a thorough review on the current Lexus RX450h F-Sport with the latest touch screen infotainment system as I’ve just bought one. Thanks.
Thanks for the review.... Guess I'll stick with my Yaris
Drag race idea: *GR Yaris vs. 2-litre GR Supra*
This is the 86 everyone wanted.
I've been quaving to watch the model 3 range test video
3:39 the red leathery bits on the steering remind me of the Mazda RX-8.
I expect after 3-5 years the price difference between these versions will be bigger
This car in particular should only come with a manual
Yes because the z4 s30i has manual transmission, but hey, I read that 4 cylinder b48 engine on z4 s30i has the same firewall with the 6 cylinder b58 supra
Auto > manual in City. Real man drive manual is myth
Auto is more fun for me
I totally get this and woukd buy this version. Porsche have moved to four aswell. Looks awesome very nippy and economical. Perfect
Why the infotainment system and the center console's font is as same as a BMW Z4?
"looks great" instantly stopped the video and left this message
Who would want a 2l supra it’s like the eco boost mustang I think there a lot of money for what they are though
It's going to be electric someday.
Hh a co
Old supras had a non turbo version
Why is it on old Pilot Super Sport tyres instead of the updated Pilot Sport 4S?
That analogy at the beginning 😂 👌🏾
Nobody: Toyota Supra: *has smaller engine* Mat Watson: *upset and annoyed he has to review this*
Hes trying to give a heads up to toyota.
3:43 Normal ppl: I like that British ppl: li' a'
HEY MAT.. COULD U DO A REVIEW OF THE MITSUBISHI PAJERO
Can you do a review on the m2 competition
Don't know why, but this sound reminds me of a toy car, that when you pull back and release it makes that sound, kinda the same 😅
