If you are one of those who still remember the glorious era of Formula 1 with a V12 engine, today we bring you a video that you will want to watch over and over in a loop. By Gordon Murray Automotive and Cosworth, today we discover the new atmospheric V12 of the spectacular GMA T.50 howling at 12,100 rpm, a really impressive number for a mechanic developed by the lucky owners of the spiritual successor to the McLaren F1 for the ultimate experience.
The wildest engine of the moment is a V12 exclusively developed by Cosworth for the GMA T.50
If you don’t know the GMA T.50 yet, we can already guess that it is being referred to as one of the super sports cars that will go down in history. This car was designed by Gordon Murray himself and tries to develop the original idea on which the McLaren F1 was developed.. The conceptual similarities between the two models are great, but everything in the T.50 has been taken to extremes with the technologies and solutions available today.
Rather than repeating the alliance with BMW Motorsport to bring the T.50’s engine to life, GMA decided to start from a blank sheet and partner with Cosworth to develop a unique, bespoke powertrain for its new supercar. So the result is a 12-cylinder V-engine, naturally aspirated engine with 3.9 liters displacement, which can develop a maximum output of 735 hp in the T.50s version and reach a turning height of no less than 12,100 rpm!
GMA has already started producing the first prototypes of the T.50. to rollwith Cosworth doing the final adjustment on the propeller, which allowed us to see it for the first time developing its maximum power and reaching the 12,100 rpm that make it up a miracle of modern technology. A total of 100 copies of the T.50 Street version of the T.50 will be produced, a further 25 copies of the Circuit version with the name T.50s Nikki Lauda. Delivery to customers is planned for 2022 with a starting price of 2.36 or 3.59 million euros.
