NO BACK-SEAT DRIVERS

-

Unlike its ancestors, the new Supra is a two-seater. Every one of the four previous generation­s, all the way from 1978 to 2002, featured a 2+2 interior.

There are two reasons for the change. First, Supra chief engineer Tetsuya Tada wanted a compact footprint for excellent agility, so the distance between the car’s front and rear axles is shorter than all the old models. Second, Toyota already makes a sporty 2+2 coupe, the GT86.
