Gordon Murray, the visionary behind the original McLaren F1 has revealed his second clean-sheet supercar in just two years.
Called the T.33, and described by the Gordon Murray Design as “the world’s finest supercar GT”, the new car is pitched as a more road-focused machine than its T.50 big brother.
That doesn’t mean performance or driver interaction completely takes a back seat. The T.33 shares its platform with the T.50, and both cars employ a naturally aspirated Cosworth-engineered V12. But while the T.50 develops 654 hp (663 PS) and 344 lb-ft (467 Nm) and revs to 11,500 rpm, the T.33 makes a more modest 607 hp (615PS) hp and 337 lb-ft (456 Nm), and spins to “only” 11,100rpm. Buyers get the choice of a six-speed manual or a paddle-shift ’box, again with six gears.
Production is limited to 100 cars with the first of those being delivered in early 2024 and costing buyers £1.37 m ($1.85 m) plus taxes. The T.33 will be built at GMA’s new £50 m ($68 m) headquarters in Surrey, England. Currently under construction the base will have space for every part of the business, from design to engineering, production and servicing, and will even feature its own test track.
This is a developing story and will be updated soon.
