by Toyota GR GT supercar receives aggressive tuning from renowned designer
The GR GT supercar, which represents the pinnacle of Toyota’s engineering and the spiritual successor to the legendary Lexus LFA, has undergone its first digital modification. Despite its elongated front end and low profile reminiscent of a GT3 race car, there are always those who seek an even more extravagant look, bringing it closer to exotic competitors.
Independent designer Khyzyl Saleem has presented his first digital version of the GR GT, which he himself describes as
“just a little chunky”
.
Exterior details and body kit
The Japanese supercar has received a custom body kit, new alloy wheels, and a special livery that enhances its ability to attract attention to Lamborghini levels. Starting with the styling package, the main feature is the fender flares, which are neatly integrated into the overall body design.
The new fenders are paired with a more pronounced carbon fiber splitter. In profile, corresponding “gills” on the fenders and additional ribs on the side sills have been added. More importantly, Saleem has installed a new set of deep-dish BBS E88 wheels on the GR GT and lowered the car even closer to the ground.
The rear end appears to remain unchanged, as the standard model already features a large ducktail spoiler, an aggressive diffuser, and four exhaust tips. As a finishing touch, the digital artist chose a new livery that combines a purple shade for the main body with a black roof.
Technical specifications and prospects
Saleem did not mention any performance upgrades, but the GR GT’s hybrid powertrain is powerful enough to support the sportier body kit. The model is equipped with a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with a dry sump, producing at least 641 hp, with additional acceleration from an electric motor. Toyota has not yet announced the model’s total output but has confirmed a top speed of over 320 km/h.
Deliveries of the first standalone model from Gazoo Racing are expected to begin in 2027. Whether supercar owners will be ready to add any tuning modifications similar to those proposed by Saleem remains to be seen. In any case, Toyota’s flagship model will most likely attract the attention of tuning shops.
It is worth noting that the appearance of such digital projects even before the start of serial production indicates high interest in the model from the tuning community. This also demonstrates that even a car as extreme in design as the GR GT leaves room for personalization and further refinement, which is traditional for Japanese automotive culture.
