McLaren has unveiled its latest supercar: the brand’s unique reimagining of a modern GT

McLaren unveiled their latest supercar, a Grand Touring model, earlier this year.

Sporting a mid-mounted muscular engine and fun-filled two-seat configuration, a carbon-fiber structure and feathery weight we have all come to expect from McLaren, drivers are in for a surprisingly supple drive with the new GT… along with a mad adrenal rush to the brain, heart or whichever body parts processes this kind of thrill the quickest.

The car’s sleek teardrop shape leaves little doubt about its statuesque advantage in aerodynamics and accounts as the main reason why love happens at first sight. Devoid of flashy hues that commonly befall other models of its class, the McLaren GT hesitates to draw too much unwanted attention its way by sporting a more reserved and understated color palette that confounds even its competitors. And that’s ok. These “strong silent types” always save the thunder for when it counts: performance.

A THRILLING AFFAIR

In the new GT, the usual Grand Tourer conventions are reinvented. But the ride is still what admirers of the British luxury carmaker have come to expect.

The McLaren GT’s true power surge can be felt more poignantly at the precise moment that acceleration kicks in. A rush of agility travels straight to your nerve center and ushers in your thrilling, nimble journey, whether you’re winding around the French Riviera or racing a sunset in Miami Beach. On “Sports mode,” your every day super car suddenly becomes a responsive, perceptive and adaptive extension of your instincts. Its customizable electro-hydraulic steering weight gives you a jolt of extra control at higher speeds as the deep roar of the bespoke engine makes leaps and bounds over previous models when it comes to superior dynamics and engagement.

This supercar is oozing with McLaren race-machine heritage and mystique as it growls and snarls to top speeds of 203 mph, going from 0 to 60 in 3.1 seconds.

STAYING POWER

A masterpiece from the inside out.

Perks include driver-adaptive seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, symbiotic to your driving style, an innovative cabin infotainment system, dihedral doors that know how to make an entrance and a plush, comfortable ride that goes the distance while soothing those G’s, as well as any imperfections on the road.

“The new McLaren GT combines competition levels of performance with continent-crossing capability, wrapped in a beautiful body and true to McLaren’s ethos of designing super light cars with a clear weight advantage over rivals. Designed for distance, it provides the comfort and space expected of a Grand Tourer, but with a level of agility never experienced before in this segment. In short, this is a car that redefines the notion of a Grand Tourer in a way that only a McLaren could,” said Mike Flewitt, Chief Executive Officer, McLaren Automotive.

Base priced at $213,195 USD to start, the McLaren GT is in precious and finite supply and already seducing performance oriented buyers world wide. mclaren.com
