Gordon Murray Automotive has confirmed that production of its celebrated T.50 supercar will conclude in July, closing the chapter on one of the most extreme analog driving machines of the modern era. The final example of the 100-unit run is expected to be completed this summer, nearly four years after the T.50’s debut in 2020.
Crafted to be the “purest expression of driving perfection,” the T.50 is renowned for its featherlight 2,198-pound (997 kg) construction, central seating position, and naturally aspirated 3.9-liter V12 engine co-developed with Cosworth. Producing 661 horsepower and paired with a six-speed manual transmission, the T.50 is widely regarded as a spiritual successor to Murray’s legendary McLaren F1.
But its engineering didn’t stop at the drivetrain. The T.50’s signature fan-assisted active aerodynamics system—reminiscent of the banned Brabham BT46B Formula One car—allowed for both enhanced downforce and reduced drag, a rarity among modern hypercars.
Although the car’s production run is ending, Gordon Murray Automotive isn’t slowing down. The company announced that two new vehicles from its Special Vehicles division will debut on August 15 at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering, during Monterey Car Week. One will be a bespoke commission, the other an in-house Special Vehicles creation—both promising to follow the brand’s core philosophy of lightweight design and mechanical purity.
Ahead of that, GMA will celebrate Murray’s 60-year career at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. A rare collection of his cars—including the original 1965 IGM Ford T.1, a 1988 McLaren MP4/4 Formula One car, and the track-focused T.50s Niki Lauda—will be on display to honor his engineering legacy.
The T.50’s end marks more than just a production milestone—it closes a rare era of naturally aspirated, analog excellence in an increasingly digital supercar world.
