Performance
The 2.0L Dynamic Force Engine delivers an impressive 169 horsepower. Pair it with Dynamic Shift-CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission) to maximize both power and efficiency. Available Sport Mode, mounted paddle shifters, and 6-speed Intelligent Manual Transmission (iMT) provide you with ultimate control and a sportier driving experience.

A Closer Look at the New Supra
Power and Performance
When you buy a sports car, you want it to really feel like a sports car. The 2020 Toyota Supra more than delivers, offering a turbocharged 6-cylinder engine that roars with power. The car sounds mighty and drives like a dream, and the handling is nimble and responsive. Anyone who’s really keen on that sports car experience will likely be well-satisfied by the Supra.
A Glimpse Inside
It should go without saying that if you’re looking to haul a bunch of people, this definitely isn’t the car for you. It’s a two-person sports car that’s made for exhilaration, not necessarily flexibility or convenience. With that said, the seats and cabins are made from premium materials that enhance the feeling of class and luxury. And there’s some decent leg room to provide driver and passenger alike with comfort, even over the course of a long trip.
Staying Safe
The big draw of this car is its sports style and robust performance, but naturally, you also want a vehicle that’s going to keep you safe. The 2020 Toyota Supra has a number of advanced safety features, including:
- Blind spot monitoring
- Automatic emergency braking
- Lane departure warnings with steering assistance

Newly Redesigned 2019 RAV4
The 2019 RAV4 recently made its debut at the New York International Auto Show and saying it turned heads is an understatement. This popular SUV has been completely redesigned for the upcoming year and some say this change was brought about by Toyota seeking to expand its RAV4 customer base.
Exterior Style
Perhaps the most noticeable difference is the redesigned exterior style of the 2019 RAV4. With a much bolder and aggressive look, this SUV rapidly got
everyone’s attention. It features more pronounced wheel-arch covers and a big, upright grille. Once again, Toyota will be offering an Adventure trim, which will look slightly different and appeal to outdoorsy types as opposed to a more urban look and feel with the other trims.
As for size, the RAV4 is based on the Toyota New Global Architecture platform which is a more space-efficient design. Despite being slightly shorter overall, the wheelbase is longer and the car is a little wider, meaning more interior space.
Connectivity and Transmission
The standard equipment levels will include the latest Entune 3.0 infotainment system as well as Amazon Alexa. It will also include Toyota Safety 2.0 which will further enhance safety levels with pedestrian warning, lane departure warning, and pre-collision systems.
In terms of the drivetrain, the previous 6-speed automatic transmission has been replaced by a new 8-speed unit on the gasoline powered models while the hybrid version will keep a CVT transmission.
Engine and Drivetrain
The base engine will remain a 2.5-liter, 4-cylinder unit and although we do not have information on horsepower, the previous model produced 176 hp and 172 lb-ft of torque. We heard that the new model will produce slightly more power while offering better fuel economy.
As for the drivetrain, AWD is an option in the 2019 RAV4 which will appeal to customers who plan to do more than commute to work and back. To make it even better, the AWD system now features torque vectoring for the first time and to keep the efficiency levels as high as possible, rear-axle disconnect is also a brand new feature.
Modern Interior
The RAV4 remains a 5-seater but the rear row and cargo space have benefited from the new Toyota New Global Architecture platform. Its interior features have been redesigned to include rectangular air vents as opposed to the rotary vents. A large infotainment screen sits atop the center of the dashboard, replacing the smaller integrate unit. Higher trim levels will offer some upgrades but the overall feel from behind the wheel is of a small SUV that is functional yet luxurious.
We’re very excited about the new 2019 Toyota RAV4, and cannot wait to have it at our dealership, but in the meantime feel free to check out our 2018 RAV4 inventory!
Toyota Supra is Coming Back
If you’ve watched the Fast and Furious movies, chances are you’ve heard of the Toyota Supra. You’ve also probably noticed that there hasn’t been a production model since 2002, but that could be changing fairly soon. We’re expecting to see the new production model of the highly-anticipated sports car some time in 2019.
We don’t have much information on the car yet, but from spy shots we can have an idea of what the car is going to look like. There appears to be an updated rear end and up front you’ll notice narrow headlights. As for powertrain information, we only know that the Supra’s chief engineer, Tetsuya Tada, has hinted that the car would receive a turbocharge inline-six-cylinder engine.
Stay tuned for more updates as we receive them, we cannot wait to see the production vehicle.

2019 Toyota Avalon
As more and more information is released, our staff is getting so excited to see the new 2019 Toyota Avalon. The all-new redesigned vehicle will be premiering in March, and is packed with features to excite car enthusiasts and drivers alike.
The 2019 Avalon will be lower and wider than previous models, transforming it into an eye-catching shape. The Avalon is already known for its spacious interior, but the 2019 model will bring that to a whole new level. Rear-seat legroom and shoulder room have grown, and the interior now has available Yamaha-sourced wood trim and aluminum accents.
The Entune 3.0 infotainment system features a 9.0-inch touchscreen, Wi-Fi connectivity, and integration with smartwatches and Amazon Alexa to enable exciting features like remote starting, door locking and unlocking, and checking the fuel level. A color head-up display is standard on the two upper trim levels, and all models come with wireless device charging and a total of five USB ports, three in front and two in the back. Great news for those with apple devices, this vehicle will come standard with Apple Car-Play. You can count on quality sound when the vehicle comes standard with 14 speakers throughout.
We know that Toyota drivers value safety as a top priority. Toyota did not forget this during the 2019 Avalon remodel, standard features include pedestrian detection, radar cruise control, lane departure alert with steering assist, automatic high-beams, 10 airbags, stability control, traction control, ABS with brake assist and electronic brake-force distribution, and a standard backup camera.
We will be taking orders for the 2019 Toyota Avalon. Don’t forget to stop by the 2018 Chicago Auto Show (Feb. 10-19) at McCormick Place to get a closer look and this game-changing vehicle!
Girl Scouts Earn Their Energy Badge
Last Friday January 5th, we had the Girl Scouts Troop #51-856 stop by our dealership to earn their Energy Badge by learning about a hybrid vehicle: the Toyota Prius!
Our Sales Consultant, Nick Guerrero, talked to them about all the features of the Toyota Prius as well as the importance of driving an environmentally friendly vehicle. After that, we were able to present them with the Certificate of Achievement for this learning workshop, as well as gave them some snacks to enjoy!
It was a pleasure hosting the Girl Scouts and teaching them about the Toyota Prius. We are so happy that they can now take this knowledge and share it with all their friends so we can raise awareness of how important it is to take care of the environment!
