The new model of McLaren is based on the 570S and shares with it the front, the diehedral doors and even the twin-turbo 3.8-liter engine with 570hp. On the novelties side are the new roof and rear that includes new upper structure, spoiler and aerodynamic package.

 

The big highlight is however the "Touring Deck" window which is basically a glass door that allows to access the 220 liters cargo area placed at the back of the two-seater cockpit. Together with the 130 liters of cargo area in the front of the car, the 570GT provides a total of 350 liters of cargo capacity.

 

The interior has also been updated to grant the 570GT a more upscale look. As standard, and although the structure is very similar to the 570S, McLaren will use more luxurious materials in the new model and will also offer interior Luxury and Sport packages. In order to create a lighter and more airy cabin, the 570GT receives a tinted panoramic sunroof which is equipped with sound-proof  and solar radiation absorption materials. The configuration of the suspension and dampers has also been revised to give this sports car a more luxurious and comfortable ride.

 

Due to the new rear structure, the 570GT weighs 1350kg, 37kg more than the 570S, 1313kg. This difference turned out to have a slight impact on the GT performance. The vehicle can reach 100km/h in 3.4 seconds, 0.2 plus than the 570S. The maximum speed is 328km/h. The all-wheel drive 570GT is combined with the same seven-speed automatic dual-clutch transmission.
