The New McLaren GT
The McLaren GT is the company’s first stand-alone grand touring sports car. A spiritual successor to the 570GT, which is based on the 570S, the GT is essentially a two-door sports car with enhanced luggage room.
The new McLaren GT has more luggage capacity (570 liters) than any other model in the automaker's lineup. Most of that (420 liters) is accessible through the GT's front-hinged, full-length rear tailgate. The GT also showcases McLaren's new infotainment system, featuring HERE navigation and real-time traffic information.Powering the new GT model is a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 that outputs 612HP (456 KW) and 465 pound-feet (630 Nm) of torque. The flat torque curve, thanks to the turbos, is designed to offer seamless acceleration through the seven-speed SSG transmission.
The McLaren 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine is the beating heart of many of their incredible cars. Yet this one is different… Born to deliver smooth linear acceleration and flexibility.
Top speed in the McLaren GT is 203 mph (326 km/h) with 0-62 mph (100 km/h) acceleration in just 3.2 seconds and 124 mph (200 km/h) in nine seconds.
The new McLaren GT is available for order now, with deliveries commencing at the end of 2019. Pricing begins at £163,000.
