GORDON MURRAY AutomotiveT.50 2022 - Present

　　Gordon Murray designed the famous McLaren F1, and this new creation, the T.50, is the spiritual successor to that beloved supercar of the '90s.

　　After establishing its automotive company back in 2017, the brilliant engineer announced that he would create a special supercar. In 2020, he showed a glimpse of the project, but it was not the final product. In 2023, Gordon Murray Automotive unveiled the final product, hand-built in the factory from Dunsfold, Surrey, England, where the brand is based.

　　It was easy to realize the connection between the 1992 McLaren F1 and the 2023 Gordon Murray T.50. They both shared the same shape, with a cab-forward design and the engine compartment mounted behind the cabin. Moreover, the front fascia featured swept-back headlights, similar in shape to those from its spiritual predecessor. But, unlike that, the T.50 featured glass panels on the roof and a fin on the rear area, above a fan. Gordon Murray was famous for creating the Formula 1 Brabham BT46 race car with a suction fan in the back that helped reduce the ground effect. While it was immediately banned in races, the production version of the T.50 could have it.

　　The cabin was fit for three persons, with the driver seated in the middle and the two passengers halfway behind them. It was the same layout as on, you guessed it, McLaren F1. Fronting the driver was a dashboard fitted with two large displays and an analog tachometer placed between them. The side console housed the gear selector and a few buttons and dials for various adjustments.

　　Powering the whole beast was not a BMW engine anymore, like in the F1, but a Cosworth-engineered V12 that produced 663 PS (650 hp) at a stratospheric 12,100 rpm. Only 100 units were planned for production.
