The ground clearance compared to other Toyota models
Within the current Toyota lineup, the Supra is among the lowest when it comes to ground clearance. Compared to the Toyota GR Supra with a 115 mm ground clearance, it has a slight edge. However, models like the GR Yaris (124 mm), GR86 (130 mm), and Corolla (135 mm) boast higher ground clearances, making them more practical for everyday driving. Larger Toyota SUVs and trucks, such as the RAV4 (195 mm), Highlander (202 mm), and Hilux (227 mm), of course, tower above the Supra, offering the ground clearance you'd expect from off-road-capable vehicles.
