New introduction: McLaren GTS - The letter more
The familiar McLaren GT is replaced by the new GTS. The extra letter in the product name means an increase in power for the four-liter V8 twin-turbo by just 11 kW / 15 hp to 466 kW / 635 hp. Thanks to the slight weight saving of ten kilograms to 1,520 kilograms, the new McLaren accelerates from a standstill to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds and breaks the 200 km/h barrier in 8.9 seconds. The McLaren GTS is equipped with 39-centimeter brake discs on the front axle and 38-centimeter discs on the rear axle, which are made of carbon ceramic. With six-piston aluminum brake calipers at the front and four-piston calipers at the rear, the braking system offers the best deceleration values. From 100 km/h, the super sports car stops after 32 meters. The composite roof is made of recycled carbon fiber, which contributes to optimum vehicle performance while saving weight. The carbon fiber monocoque chassis and the lightweight construction philosophy for a symbiosis of comfort and sportiness remain.
In addition to the re-sharpened drive, the adaptive suspension, carbon-ceramic brakes and improved standard equipment with details such as aniline leather seats ensure this. Visually, the McLaren GTS distinguishes itself from its high-performance brothers with new exterior components in gloss black. The impressive appearance includes a large rear diffuser and the twin exhaust system - with the particularly impressive sound of a super sports car on request. "The new McLaren GTS offers an unrivaled blend of McLaren driving dynamics and performance with refinement and practicality. If you want a true supercar driving experience, the GTS offers just that; if you want to relax on a longer journey or with luggage for a weekend getaway, the GTS is an ideal companion," explains Michael Leiters, CEO of McLaren Automotive.
Access to the 420-liter cargo area is via a front-hinged, full-length glass tailgate, which is electrically operated and has a soft-close function. The high level of everyday utility is complemented by a 150-liter storage compartment in the front of the vehicle. The total load space of 570 liters makes the McLaren GTS one of the most practical super sports cars currently on the market.
