The average speed and average 
consumption are calculated for the 
distance travelled since 
theon-board computer was last

The calculation of average speed

manually.

tracks lead to increased wear. This 
wear is not covered by the war-
ranty. The vehicle is not conceived 
for use in motor sports competi-
tions.
Before and after driving on a racing 
track, have the vehicle checked at 
any authorized Toyota retailer or 
Toyota authorized repairer, or any 
reliable repairer.This chapter describes all standard, 
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series. 
It may therefore describe equip-
ment and functions which are not 
installed in your vehicle, for exam-
ple on account of the optional 
equipment selected or the country 
specification. This also applies to 
safety-relevant functions and sys-
tems. Please comply with the rele-
vant laws and regulations when 
using the corresponding functions 
and systems.
The vehicle possesses wide-rang-
ing technologies for reducing con-
sumption and emission levels.
Fuel consumption depends on vari-
ous factors.
A number of measures, such as a 
moderate driving style and regular 
maintenance, can influence fuel 
consumption and reduce the bur-
den on the environment.

Add-on parts on the vehicle inter-
fere with its aerodynamic perfor-
mance and increase fuel 
consumption.
Open windows increase drag and 
consequently fuel consumption.
Tyres can have differing effects on 
consumption. For example, con-
sumption can be affected by tyre 
size.
Check and, if necessary, correct the 
tyre inflation pressures at least 
twice a month and before setting off 
on a longer journey.
Insufficient tyre inflation pressure 
increases rolling resistance and 
consequently fuel consumption and 
tyre wear.
Do not warm up the engine with the 
vehicle at a standstill; it is prefera-
ble to set off straight away, driving 
at moderate engine speeds.This brings the cold engine up to 
operating temperature as quickly as 
possible.
Anticipating the road situation and 
adopting a smooth driving style will 
reduce fuel consumption.
Avoid accelerating and braking 
unnecessarily.
Keep an appropriate distance from 
the vehicle ahead.
Driving at low engine speeds 
reduces fuel consumption and 
wear.
Pay attention to the shift point indi-
cator, see page 160, in the vehicle, 
if fitted.
When approaching a red traffic 
light, take your foot off the accelera-
tor and allow the vehicle to roll.
On downward stretches, take your 
foot off the accelerator and allow 
the vehicle to roll.

Supra Owner's Manual4-1. DRIVING HINTS
When you stop the vehicle for 
longer periods, for example at traf-
fic lights, railway crossings or in 
traffic jams, switch off the engine.
The Auto Start/Stop of the vehicle 
shuts off the engine automatically 
during a stop.
If the engine is switched off and 
then started again, the fuel con-
sumption and emissions are 
reduced compared with a perma-
nently running engine. Savings can 
be made just by stopping the 
engine for a few seconds.
Fuel consumption also depends on 
other factors, such as driving style, 
road condition, maintenance or 
environmental factors, for example.
Functions such as seat heating or 
rear window heating require a great 
deal of energy and increase fuel 
consumption, especially in city traf-
fic and stop-and-go traffic.
Switch these functions off if they 
are not required.Have the vehicle serviced regularly 
to achieve optimal economy and 
lifetime. Toyota recommends hav-
ing maintenance work carried out 
by Toyota. Switch off the engine if stop-
ping for longer periods

A tyre's condition and inflation pres-

• Lifetime of the tyre.
• Driving safety.
• Driving comfort.
• Fuel consumption.The tyre inflation pressures are 
shown on the door pillar of the 
driver's door.
The tyre inflation pressure data 
applies to the tyre sizes and recom-
mended tyre makes which have 
been classified by the vehicle man-
ufacturer as suitable for the respec-
tive vehicle type.
If the tyre's speed code cannot be 
found, then the tyre inflation pres-
sure for the corresponding tyre size 
applies.

WARNING
A tyre with too little or no tyre inflation 
pressure can heat up significantly and 
sustain damage. Driving properties, 
for example steering and braking, will 
be impaired as a result. There is a 
danger of accidents. Check the tyre 
inflation pressure regularly and adjust

to winter or summer conditions. 
Fuel that is sold in winter facilitates 
cold starting, for example.
