As a seasoned gamer with a penchant for virtual racing and a soft spot for Toyota vehicles, this news has me revving my engines! Growing up in the ’90s, I witnessed the GR Supra’s iconic status on the streets and now, seeing it take to the track in Australia’s premier motorsport event is nothing short of exhilarating.
Toyota Australia is preparing for its premiere in the 2026 Repco Supercars Championship with the legendary GR Supra model. This marks Toyota’s initial participation in Australia’s top motorsport competition, expanding the brand’s motor racing presence beyond its local initiatives.
2026’s racing grid will include four GEN3 GR Supras, two of which will be handled by Walkinshaw Andretti United (WAU). Notable drivers Chaz Mostert and Ryan Wood will pilot Toyotas on the track, demonstrating Toyota’s dedication to competing in Supercars with a top-tier team through its partnership with WAU.
As a passionate fan, I can’t help but feel exhilarated when I hear Toyota Australia Vice President Sean Hanley describe their entry into Supercars as a “momentous occasion.” It’s clear that Toyota has harbored a deep-rooted passion for being part of this prestigious championship. With the perfect car, a formidable team, and a robust alliance with the Supercars Championship, it seems like the stars have aligned for them to seize the moment!
Significantly, Toyota’s GR Supra racecars will be fueled by the 5L V8 2UR-GSE engine, which is utilized in high-performance street cars and the 2019 Dakar Rally-winning HiLux. The development process has commenced with Toyota’s internal design team, who are utilizing advanced CAD and virtual reality technologies to bring the vehicle to life.
