Just ahead of the 2016 Geneva Motor Show, McLaren has released the details of its 650S GT3 for the 2016 motorsport season. The luxury supercar brand is hoping the new vehicle’s updated body and sleek look will garner plenty of attention.
Specifically enhanced for the track, the new body is bold and angular. However, McLaren fans will be familiar with the vehicle’s twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V8 which produces 500 horsepower and is paired with a six-speed sequential gearbox.
The supercar was developed by McLaren GT, meaning this new vehicle will be offered to customer teams worldwide. Factory drivers like Rob Bell and Alvaro Parente are expected to participate in some of the upcoming competitions. Recently, Parente was part of the lineup for the McLaren win at Bathurst with a lead of just 1.2 seconds.
The 2016 McLaren 650S GT3 will make its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March. McLaren fans will have to wait patiently until then to see it.
