Presenting The McLaren GT: The Most Comfortable Supercar Ever - CarBuzz

As with other McLaren models, the GT is built using a carbon fiber structure in order to keep it light and rigid to ensure excellent driving dynamics. Although this is the "comfortable" McLaren, it only weighs 3,232 pounds, which is only around 100 pounds more than the 720S. McLaren made sure the GT will be plenty fast with a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 producing 612 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque, all of which goes out to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

The performance figures are pretty blistering too. McLaren says the GT will hit 60 mph in 3.1 seconds, 124 mph in 9.1 seconds, and go on to a top speed of 203 mph. These types of numbers typically come bundled with a massive compromise in fuel economy, but with EPA fuel ratings of 15/21/17 mpg city/highway/combined (subject to change), McLaren says the GT will travel around 399 miles on a single tank of gas.
