McLaren Gran Tourer (2).jpg

The McLaren GT is an upcoming sports car designed and manufactured by British automobile manufacturer McLaren Automotive. It is the company's first dedicated grand tourer, and is based on the same platform underpinning the Speedtail and the 720S.

The GT was first announced at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show, but full details of the car were not released until May 15th of the same year.

The GT features a new variation of the 3,994 cc (4.0 L; 243.7 cu in) twin-turbocharged M840T V8 engine found in the 720S. Having a new dedicated codename of M840TE, the new engine has smaller turbochargers that deliver lower peak performance than its Super Series variant but greater low RPM-performance and responsiveness. The GT has a rated power output of 620 PS (456 kW; 612 hp) at 7,000 rpm, and the maximum torque is 465 lb⋅ft (630 N⋅m) at 5,500 rpm.

The suspension system in the GT is also derived from the system in the 720S. The car utilises double wishbones at the front and rear axles, and a modified version of the ProActive Chassis Control II active damping system.


The company claims that the GT has a top speed of 326.7 km/h (203 mph) and can accelerate from 0–200 km/h (0–124 mph) in 9 seconds.

Nappa leather is standard upholstery, but drivers can also choose from a softer hide, microfibre or cashmere. The seats have better shoulder padding and back support, with electrical adjustment and heating as standard. Tom Taylor, McLaren's global project manager, stated that "[at] 60 mph it's about 4 decibels quieter than a DB11". A 12.3-inch touchscreen mounted at the center of the dashboard controls a revamped infotainment system.
