Under McLarens presskonferens på Genève berättade vdn Mike Flewitt att en ny GT-modell kommer att presenteras om några månader. Den kommer tydligen att skaka om begreppet rejält och ställer sig frågorna: "Why does a Grand Tourer need to be heavy?" och "Why can’t a Grand Tourer handle like a McLaren?".

"The fourth McLaren to be introduced under the Track25 business plan will be our interpretation of the Grand Tourer. It will be a car that combines competition levels of performance with continent-crossing capability, wrapped in a beautiful lightweight body. It’s a car that has been designed for distance and one that will also provide the comfort and space expected of a Grand Tourer, but with a level of agility never experienced before in this segment. In addition, it will be the lightest of Grand Tourers and by also having the best power-to-weight ratio, I promise it will be one of the quickest. In addition, it will be the only Grand Tourer to share its DNA with the 250mph McLaren Speedtail."
