We’re a little over one week away from McLaren
unveiling their brand new Grand Tourer model, the fourth car announced under
the British automaker’s Track25 business plan. The reveal will take place online
on Wednesday, May 15th, 2019 at 13:00 BST (08:00 EST), although we’ll be
keeping an eye out for any potential leaks prior to that time. According to
McLaren the upcoming GT shares the same DNA as the Speedtail Hyper-GT model.
For starters, you’ll want to hold onto this link in
order to see more of the car and experience the reveal live. Once out, the new
GT will take its place alongside existing Sports Series and Super Series
models, although its purpose will clearly be different as it seeks to “redefine
the rules of the Grand Tourer segment, introducing renowned McLaren engineering
and dynamic attributes alongside high-quality materials and exceptional
comfort.”
Visually, the new GT appears to boasts a cleaner
exterior design compared to any other modern-day McLaren. A more elegant
exterior does of course make sense, if this is to be a car best-suited for long
journeys.
While it’s still unclear which power train will make
its way into the new GT, odds are it will produce north of 600 horses.
