Redefining Comfort: McLaren GTS, the Upgraded GT Experience
In a significant update for 2024, McLaren introduces the revamped McLaren GTS, enhancing the grand touring experience with added comfort and speed. Formerly known as the GT, this two-seater model has undergone subtle yet impactful changes, solidifying its position as McLaren’s pinnacle in comfort-oriented driving.
Power and Precision: Engine and Chassis Enhancements
While the core mid-engined layout and the potent V8 powertrain remain, the McLaren GTS boasts a 15bhp power increase, now delivering an impressive 626bhp with a peak torque of 630Nm. The central carbon-fibre tub-style chassis, paired with two aluminum subframes, ensures a lightweight yet sturdy foundation. The seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, integrated with McLaren’s Brake Steer system, propels the rear wheels seamlessly.
Lightweight Construction: Shedding Kilos for Enhanced Performance
Maintaining McLaren’s commitment to lightweight construction, the GTS sheds 10kg, now weighing 1,520kg. This results in an even more impressive performance, accelerating from 0 to 62mph in just 3.2 seconds and reaching 124mph in a mere 8.9 seconds, with a remarkable top speed of 203mph.
Precision Handling: Suspension and Braking Excellence
The GTS features double wishbone suspension with McLaren’s Proactive Damper Control system, offering a blend of springs and adaptive dampers. Carbon ceramic brakes, with 390mm front and 380mm rear discs, ensure optimal stopping power, managed by six and four-piston calipers respectively.
Subtle Elegance: Exterior and Interior Refinements
Subtle refinements grace the exterior, including a tweaked front bumper, updated trim elements, and a fresh set of alloy wheels. Inside, the McLaren GTS welcomes new color and trim options, focusing on a clean interior adorned with top-quality materials. The optional electrochromic glass roof, allowing on-demand tinting, adds a touch of luxury.
Practical Grand Tourer: Luggage Space and Versatility
Contrary to the mid-engined layout, the McLaren GTS offers practicality with a reasonable amount of luggage space. Front and rear boots, along with additional storage behind the seats, provide a total cargo space of 570 liters, ensuring that the grand touring experience is both exhilarating and versatile.
