We take a 2nd drive in the excellent Toyota Supra 3.0 Premium

The engine in the 2022 Toyota Supra 3.0 produces 382 horsepower and 365 lb-ft of torque mated to ZF’s eight-speed automatic, the only available transmission. Toyota has made numerous changes to get to these numbers, including a new cylinder head with a fully separate exhaust manifold, revised pistons to reduce the compression ratio from 11.0:1 to 10.2:1. They have also increased the boost by using a larger turbocharger.

Toyota didn’t stop there though, they did some chassis and damper tuning, tweaked the electric power steering, the adaptive variable suspension, electronic stability control, and active differential programming. New front and rear bump stops and aluminum braces were added to increase lateral rigidity and achieve the goal of increasing roll resistance and improve cornering stability. Guess what? It worked.

Acceleration is actually no quicker than the outgoing model, in the all-important 0-60 dash it still takes 3.8 seconds, which is pretty quick for a rear-wheel-drive car.
