Heritage

The original M6GT was Bruce McLaren’s personal vision for a lightweight, mid-engined road car derived from his dominant Can-Am racers. Only a handful of prototypes were built before his death in 1970. The McL 6GT finally realises that dream with six decades of modern engineering.

I’m incredibly proud of our talented design team for bringing Bruce’s dream to life.
