The British Automotive industry gained a new name to boast on the supercar market in 2017: Gordon Murray Automotive. Founded by the South-African-born engineer Gordon Murray, the new car manufacturer based in Dunsfold, Surrey, England, focused on high-performance vehicles. No wonder the engineer was focused on that since he was famous for designing Formula 1 cars since the early '70s. Gordon Murray moved to the UK from South Africa in 1969, trying to get a job at Lotus. But he crossed paths with Brabham, who changed his mind and convinced him the design race cars. Thus, in 1973, he made the BT42. But the most famous open-wheel racers made by him were the BT49 and BT52, which won the World Championship in 1981 and 1983, respectively. Fast forward to 1986, and Murray got an offer from McLaren to fill the Technical Director position, which he accepted. The most significant product was the MP4/4, deemed one of the most successful Formula 1 cars ever made. But one of the most crucial moments in his career came in 1992 when McLaren Cars launched the famous F1 road car. That supercar was a game-changer in the automotive industry. It was also the fastest vehicle on the planet. Gordon Murray stayed with the British team until 2004. Three years later, he tried his luck with the T.25 concept car, a city vehicle. But that was not his thing. Thus, in 2017 he established Gordon Murray Automotive, which targeted the supercars segment. In 2020 he announced the first product: the T.50, which followed the same design ideas used in the F1 supercar. By 2023, the six-year-old company had already stated that a second model, the T.30, was ready to roll on the market.
