Toyota models are among the most popular on the road today, and for a good reason. They're reliable, well-built, fuel-efficient vehicles that offer a lot of bang for your buck. But a question many car enthusiasts have is: which Toyota models are the fastest? Which ones should you test out if you're looking to get into racing?
Toyota manufactures many different vehicles, and each of them has different features and performance capabilities. The Camry, Corolla, Prius, and RAV-4 are Toyota's most popular models. The Camry is a family sedan car with a 4-cylinder engine, while the Corolla is a compact-class car that comes in a four-door sedan or five-door hatchback. The Prius is an alternative fuel vehicle (hybrid) with a 1.5 L internal combustion engine and electric motor that powers the vehicle with a maximum speed of 109 mph.
The Camry is the fastest Toyota available, with horsepower reaching at least 200 and accelerating from 0 to 60 in less than 8 seconds. However, it has a small engine size it has a powerful performance. It costs $22,000 - $31,000 for this particular model. The 2004 Camry has been reported to reach at least 15 mpg in highway driving conditions. However, you might be surprised to know that the Supra was the fastest production car Toyota ever made. It features a twin-turbocharged 3.0 litre DOHC inline-6 producing 320 hp and 315 lb-ft of torque.
The Supra was sold in the United States from 1993 to 1998. It came in either a four-door notchback coupe body style or a two-door convertible with a retractable hardtop. The only transmission available on the car was a five-speed manual that sent power to the rear wheels. The Supra's 0 to 60 mph time is 5 seconds flat, which is blisteringly fast for the 90s. Its top speed is electronically limited to 155 mph, though it has been reported that some have broken through this limit on the track. The Supra's chief competitors at the time were other sports coupes like the Nissan 300ZX and Mitsubishi 3000GT, and Dodge Stealth RT/10.
The current generation of Toyota vehicles isn't skimping on horsepower, proving that more is better when it comes to the top speed of Toyota cars. With over 500 horsepower, it's no surprise that there are numerous cars topping the charts.
