2023 McLaren Solus GT First Look Review: Ready, Player One

For years, automotive manufacturers have designed tantalizing digital hypercars as part of the Vision Gran Turismo collaboration that gives us a glimpse of what they could do with no restrictions, no limitations on creativity or innovation. But those concepts have always remained just that- concepts. And these could only ever be experienced digitally… until now. The McLaren Solus GT is what happens when Mclaren takes off the kid gloves and lets loose, turning a Vision Gran Turismo concept into a real-life racer. McLaren didn't just discard the rule book on this one; it doused the thing in gasoline and set it on fire. Building the single-seater track-only hypercar around a new chassis and forgoing the turbocharged V8s that have been the brand's staple since its 2011 revival, the 2023 Solus GT supercar packs a race-derived naturally aspirated V10 with 829 horsepower and a redline beyond 10,000 rpm. Only 25 will be built, and none will be road legal, but as far as imagination being brought to life goes, McLaren has gifted us a real treat.

When is the 2023 McLaren Solus GT Coming out?

Revealed as part of the Monterey Car Week festivities in California, the McLaren Solus GT has a vague release date of 2023. That's when the first deliveries are scheduled to take place. Will any of these be to American buyers? Who knows, but with only 25 available globally and none homologated for road use, the chances of seeing one in the wild are infinitesimally small.
