McLaren GTS

2026 McLAREN GTS — UNITED KINGDOM SPECIFICATION

ENGINE AND DRIVETRAIN

The GTS is powered by McLaren's M840TE 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8, displacing 3,994 cc and running a dry-sump lubrication system with twin electrically-actuated twin-scroll turbochargers. It produces 635 PS (626 bhp / 467 kW) and 630 Nm (465 lb-ft) of torque, driving the rear wheels through a seven-speed Seamless Shift Gearbox (SSG) dual-clutch transmission with an electronic differential. The car is rear-wheel drive only; no four-wheel-drive derivative exists.

PERFORMANCE

McLaren quotes 0-100 km/h in 3.2 seconds, 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds, and a maximum speed of 326 km/h (203 mph). The GTS claims the highest power-to-weight ratio in the grand-touring class, a consequence of the carbon-fibre chassis rather than outright output.

CHASSIS, STEERING AND BRAKES

The structure is the MonoCell II-T carbon-fibre monocoque — a version of McLaren's tub reworked for everyday usability and a full-width rear luggage bay — with aluminium crash structures front and rear. Suspension is by lightweight aluminium double wishbones and uprights with Proactive Damping Control, using continuously variable, electronically controlled dual-valve dampers that meter compression and rebound independently at each wheel; longer dampers and a GTS-specific anti-roll bar soften the ride relative to McLaren's track-focused cars. Comfort, Sport and Track modes are selected through the Active Dynamics Panel. Braking is by carbon-ceramic discs with aluminium monobloc calipers, finished on this car in yellow with a silver logo. Tyres are Pirelli P ZERO, 225/35 R20 at the front and 295/30 R21 at the rear.

DIMENSIONS AND CAPACITIES

DIN kerb weight is 1,520 kg and the lightest dry weight is 1,466 kg. Fuel tank capacity is 72 litres. Luggage capacity totals 570 litres, split between a 150-litre front compartment and a 420-litre rear bay beneath the glazed tailgate. McLaren does not publish overall length, width, height or wheelbase in the GTS specification; those figures are therefore omitted here rather than estimated, and should be confirmed against the homologation sheet before freight cubing.

EFFICIENCY AND EMISSIONS

Fuel consumption is quoted at 11.9 L/100 km (23.7 mpg) on the EU WLTP combined cycle. McLaren states an estimated EU WLTP combined CO2 figure of 270 g/km; because the manufacturer qualifies it as estimated rather than as a homologated derivative figure, it has not been written to the structured emissions field.

EXTERIOR

Bodywork is finished in MSO Cirrus Grey metallic, a McLaren Special Operations paint option, over 10-spoke lightweight forged wheels in gloss black. The car opens on dihedral doors and carries a panoramic privacy glass roof, privacy glass, a retractable rear aerofoil, full LED headlights and rear light clusters, and heated, power-folding, electrically adjustable mirrors. A sports exhaust and the Stealth badge pack with Stealth GTS side badges are fitted, along with a vehicle lift system for nose clearance over ramps and speed bumps.

INTERIOR AND SEATING

The two-seat cabin is specified in the TechLux interior theme with Porcelain contrast stitching and piping, over leather and Alcantara. Seats are electrically adjustable, heated and memory-equipped. Yellow seat belts are fitted. Other equipment includes dual-zone climate control, electric steering-column adjustment and ambient interior lighting.

INFOTAINMENT AND CONNECTIVITY

A Bowers & Wilkins premium audio system is fitted in place of the standard unit. The McLaren Infotainment System drives a central touchscreen with satellite navigation, DAB radio, Bluetooth telephony and audio streaming, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration, alongside a configurable digital instrument display.

DRIVER ASSISTANCE AND SAFETY

Active systems comprise ABS, Electronic Stability Control, traction control, brake steer torque vectoring, hill hold assist and tyre pressure monitoring, with a rear-view camera and front and rear parking sensors for manoeuvring. Passive protection is built around the carbon-fibre MonoCell II-T safety cell with aluminium crash structures, front and side airbags with passenger airbag deactivation, three-point belts with pretensioners, and an immobiliser and alarm. Euro NCAP does not crash-test low-volume supercars, so the GTS carries no NCAP star rating.

THIS CAR'S OPTIONAL SPECIFICATION

The seller lists fourteen factory options on this unit: MSO Exterior Paint in Cirrus Grey; 10-Spoke Lightweight Forged Wheels in Gloss Black; brake calipers in yellow with silver logo; Panoramic Privacy Glass Roof; Privacy Glass; Bowers & Wilkins Audio System; Interior Theme TechLux; contrast stitch and piping in Porcelain; seat belts in yellow; Sports Exhaust; Stealth Badge Pack; GTS side badges in Stealth; Vehicle Lift; and a vehicle tracking system.

CONDITION AND PROVENANCE

The car was first registered on 11 August 2026 and had covered 26 miles (42 km) when listed, offered as a McLaren Qualified approved used car by McLaren Birmingham in Solihull, West Midlands. Because it carries a UK first-registration date it is treated as a used import for destination customs purposes regardless of the delivery mileage. Service history is recorded as not yet due.
