McLaren F1 designer Gordon Murray has returned with an open-top V-12 supercar.
A high-revving V-12, 6-speed manual, and the wind in your hair. It's an intoxicating combination, and one you can have in the new T.33 Spider that was revealed on Tuesday.
The T.33 Spider is the latest creation from Gordon Murray Automotive, the new car company of legendary road and race car designer Gordon Murray, and it's just under 40 pounds heavier than itsAccording to GMA, the minimal weight gain was achieved by developing the T.33's carbon-fiber tub from the onset for the open-top car. Another key design was to skip a complex and heavy automated roof in favor of a two-piece carbon-fiber panel that can be stored in the front trunk.
Behind the roof is an air intake that feeds cool air to the car's V-12 engine, and below this is an electronically controlled glass window that drops down to provide even more engine noise into the cabin.The V-12 is a 3.9-liter unit developed by GMA in partnership with Cosworth. The engine is shared with the company's first supercar,, and in the T.33 is rated at 608 hp and 332 lb-ft of torque. Though that's lower than what's offered in the T.
The cabin of the T.33 features two seats, unlike the McLaren F1-style three-seat layout of the T.50. A benefit of the two-seat layout is that GMA was able to. This isn't the case for the T.50 which needs to be brought in under Show and Display rules. Like the coupe, the convertible will be limited to 100 examples, and build slots are still available though are likely to fill up fast. Production of the coupe is scheduled to start in 2024, with the convertible to follow starting around mid-2025.
