Is This the Ultimate Grand Touring Machine?<\/h2>\n

It’s time for you to feast your eyes on the new McLaren supercar, the GT<\/a>. The car has a mid-engine 4.0-liter twin turbo V8 that makes 612 hp and 465 lb-ft of torque.<\/strong> The model is a bit longer and more elegant than the other models from the brand.<\/p>\n

The car is a bit more usable as an everyday vehicle,<\/strong> too. It sits up a little higher than the other supercars in McLaren’s lineup and offers segment-leading cabin refinement, according to the company. It also comes with a reasonably generous 14.8 cubic feet of cargo space.<\/strong> Add in the additional storage areas in the car and you have a combined total of over 20 cubic feet of cargo space. <\/p>\n

The car isn’t some plush boat, though. It’s made for speed and impressive performance. The car features a MonoCell II-T monocoque. The rear upper portion of the structure is made of carbon fiber.  It can do 124 mph in nine seconds flat and has a top speed of 203 mph. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The McLaren GT is the fourth model to come out of the company’s Track25 business plan. The company is taking orders for the car immediately. It costs $210,000. Judging by the performance of the car and the new infotainment system for the car and its high-quality interior materials, including Nappa leather and Alcantara, the price tag is more than warranted. <\/strong><\/p>\n
