Additionally, it comes equipped with a canopy similar to that of a fighter jet.
McLaren has created a physical model of the car that we first saw in Gran Turismo Sport. The McLaren Solus GT is an actual manifestation of the groundbreaking McLaren concept vehicle that was initially developed for virtual racing. This closed-cockpit, single-seater car was launched at Monterey Car Week in California and is expected to have a price tag of more than $3.6 million. The Solus GT can be viewed from above or from the side.
Bugatti has introduced its latest masterpiece, the W16 Mistral roadster, which is set to be the ultimate driving experience. Unfortunately, only a limited number of 25 units will be produced and have already been sold out. The brand’s exceptional design skills are evident as the car is an almost exact replica of its virtual counterpart.
The latest addition to the automobile industry, the McLaren Solus GT, boasts unique design elements that set it apart from all other vehicles. Its most distinctive feature is undoubtedly its fighter jet-inspired canopy. This brand new model also boasts an interior that is both stylish and functional.
The McLaren Solus GT features a sliding canopy that reveals a single seat, placed at the car’s center. This means there is no space for a passenger, but that was not a concern for McLaren when creating this track car. The Solus GT was designed for the ultimate driving experience, prioritizing the driver above all else. Check out the front and rear views of this impressive machine.
The steering wheel of the Solus GT is inspired by the world of Formula 1, while the dashboard display and controls are optimized for the car’s narrow track design. In order to provide an unparalleled driving experience, McLaren has customized the driver’s seat to fit the unique body shape of each of the 25 owners. The designers also incorporated cutting-edge technologies, including 3D printed titanium components, to reduce the weight of the halo cockpit structure and roll hoop. Despite its distinctiveness, the Solus GT still incorporates the classic carbon-fiber monocoque that has been a staple of all McLarens since 1981.
Supercar Blondie recently took a look at the powerful McLaren Solus GT engine, designed to rule the racetrack. This vehicle is incredibly lightweight, coming in at less than 1,000kg, and generates over 1,200kg of downforce. With a naturally-aspirated 5.2 liter V10 engine and a 7-speed sequential transmission, the Solus GT boasts over 840PS (829hp) and can go from 0-100km/h in just 2.5 seconds. Its top speed? An impressive 320km/h (200mph). The first of 25 customer cars will hit the road in 2023, according to McLaren.
