LONDON: Gordon Murray Automotive (GMA) has announced that it has sold all of its T.33 coupe supercars, each costing £1.37m before local taxes.

Customers from around the globe have secured their allocation of the exclusive 100-unit production run.

Development of the T.33 – including full federal homologation – is under way with plans to build first customer cars in 2024.

The T.33 is the second model to be produced after the T.50,  which remains GMA’s halo supercar due to its central driving position, sub 1000 kilo weight and its 12,000rpm engine.

Built on a newly developed carbon and aluminium super-lightweight architecture, GMA said the T.33 is designed and engineered to be "the world’s most accomplished all-round two-seater V12 Supercar."

With a target weight of just 1,100kg, the car offers a blend of performance, comfort, on-road driving experience and everyday usability.

Each T.33 owner would be able to work with the GMA design team to personalise their T.33 through their choice of colours and liveries, ensuring that no two cars will be alike.

“The entire GMA team is thrilled that all 100 T.33’s have found a home so quicky after the global launch, just over a week ago, and we look forward to welcoming new owners to the GMA family," said Gordon Murray.

“I am extremely proud of our team who have relentlessly applied our core principles to deliver this amazing motor car.”


Weighing a mere 178kg, the 3.9-litre V12 revs to 11,100rpm and produces 615PS at 10,500rpm and 451Nm at 9,000rpm.

The V12 is touted as having an ultra-rapid response combined with 75 per cent torque delivery at just 2,500rpm and 90% of maximum torque available from 4,500rpm to 10,500rpm, and a power to weight ratio of 564PS per tonne.

While GMA and Cosworth chose to retain the V12 cylinder heads, albeit in modified form, new camshafts, variable valve timing, and engine mapping have been introduced.

British transmission experts Xtrac have created a bespoke six-speed transmission for the T.33, which will be offered to customers with a manual gearchange or an Instantaneous Gearchange System (IGS) paddle shift actuation. The transmission is combined with a low inertia clutch and a Limited-Slip Differential.

As standard, the GMA T.33 has a six-speed manual gearbox with a paddle shift transmission as an option.

The manual gearbox is derived from the T.50 Xtrac manual unit, weight at 82kg, is the world’s lightest supercar unit.
