McLaren GTS: Updated Hyper Grand Tourer Has More Power, Luxury Features & Race-Bred Technology
McLaren GTS Summary Points
British supercar maker McLaren has unveiled the GTS to replace the GT that first debuted in 2019.
The McLaren GTS features revamped styling, more horsepower from its 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, an adaptive suspension, and a lightweight monocoque architecture.
The McLaren GTS is available to order with an expected $200,000-plus base price.
2024 McLaren GTS: What’s New"
McLaren has updated its GT grand touring supercar for 2024, now calling it the GTS. Apart from a revamped hammerhead façade and updated aero enhancements, the GTS gets a more potent rendition of McLaren’s 4.0-liter twin-turbo engine.
With more power comes more speed, and the GTS delivers with its lightweight construction and a class-beating power-to-weight ratio of 412 horsepower per ton.
But unlike its Bentley, Porsche, and Aston Martin compatriots, the GTS remains a two-seat hyper-touring car with no 2+2 seating option, which leads us to believe the GTS is more oriented towards performance than long-distance driving comfort (although the original GT in 2019 seemed to be focused on long-distance driving).
However, McLaren was kind enough to equip the GTS with a modest 14.8 cubic foot trunk and a 5.2 cubic foot “frunk” for travel bags and grocery items.
At times, it almost feels like the McLaren GTS is after the Porsche 911’s supercar-for-all-seasons crown despite the wide price gap.
