Specifications

The GR GT is powered by Toyota's first twin-turbo V8, a dry sump port- and direct-injected 4.0 L with the turbos inside the vee. A carbon-fibre-reinforced polymer (CFRP) torque tube connects the engine to the rear-mounted eight speed automatic transaxle. A single electric motor is integrated within the transaxle, which features a wet clutch rather than a torque converter and a mechanical limited-slip differential.

The chassis is an all-aluminum space frame. Parts of the body including the hood, roof, and rear bulkhead are carbon fibre or CFRP for weight savings. The GR GT has forged aluminum double wishbone suspension front and rear and carbon ceramic brakes. Toyota expects the car to weigh 1,750 kg (3,860 lb) and have a top speed over 320 km/h (199 mph).
