1995 Toyota Supra

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 1995 Supra.

Transmission Automatic 4-spd

The 1995 Toyota Supra, equipped with a 4-speed automatic transmission and requiring 5 quarts of 10W-30 or 5W-30 oil, achieved EPA fuel economy ratings of 16 city, 22 highway, and 18 combined mpg. Within the model’s complaint history spanning 1990 to 2025, this year recorded the fewest owner complaints—just one, focused on the engine and engine cooling system—and no recalls. As the lowest-complaint year in that range, the 1995 Supra stands as a benchmark for reliability within the model’s long-term record.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 5,000 mi; coolant every 30,000 mi. The big-interval services (every 30,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 1995 model year sits at a low point in the federal complaint record for this generation, with only 1 complaint, zero recalls, zero investigations, and 24 TSBs. After complaints climbed to a generational high of 10 in 1994, 1995 marked a sharp decline to just a single reported complaint in Engine & Engine Cooling, with zero crash or fire complaints recorded. This places 1995 among the cleanest years in the 1990s arc, sharing the same minimal complaint volume as 1997 and 1998 but preceding those years' recall activity, which the data shows remained at zero through 1995. While the single complaint's root cause is unspecified by the data, the year’s low enforcement footprint and absence of recalls or investigations suggest minimal federal safety scrutiny during this period. Compared with the elevated complaint volume of 1994 and the recall activity that appeared in 1997 and 1998, 1995 represents a favorable point in the model cycle. For a buyer prioritizing a clean federal record within this generation, 1995 is a strong year to consider.
