McLaren McL 6GT: The New Realisation of Bruce McLaren’s Supercar Dream

McLaren Automotive reveals the McL 6GT at the 2026 Monterey Car Week. The first McLaren car of its kind, its design connects McLaren’s heritage to the present, using the McLaren M6GT – Bruce McLaren’s original, but unfulfilled supercar dream, as its inspiration.

It is presented as an unmistakable signal of how the maverick spirit within McLaren can inform a future-facing approach to McLaren cars that will captivate with character. It also lays the foundations for a newly positioned and highly exclusive type of McLaren supercar beyond the core and expanded portfolio, which will be made real with a production version of McL 6GT in 2028.

Placing a tangible emphasis on authentically reimagined heritage, modern tactility and pure driver connection throughout its finer details, McL 6GT blends its purity of character with lightweight carbon-fibre construction, V8 internal combustion power, and for the first time in a McLaren since the legendary McLaren F1, an authentic manual transmission sending drive to the rear wheels.
