McLaren Goes Back to Its Racing Roots With the 570S GT4 and 570S Sprint

Published: March 26, 2016 | By: American Luxury Staff

McLaren has announced two new track-only versions of its 570S supercar, the 570S GT4 and the 570S Sprint. The new vehicles are set to join the 540C, the 570GT, and the 570S Sports Series models in the lineup.

The 570S GT4 will actually launch right into work in the season-long development program in the British GT Championship, driven by the Black Bull Ecurie Ecosse customer team. The 570S Sprint will be like the GT4, but won’t be specially built for racing specifications, so it isn’t limited by racing regulations.

The GT4 features the same 3.8-liter twin turbocharged V8 engine as the 570S and is paired with a 7-speed transmission, a carbon-fiber chassis, and a sleek carbon-fiber and aluminum body.

McLaren will debut the 570S GT4 at the British GT Championships on April 16 and will make it available with a $226,000 price tag. More information on the Sprint version will be released in the weeks to come.
