The hands
The people behind the car
The people whose work shaped the McLaren Solus GT.
Marvin Kirchhöfer
Factory development driver
Drove the Solus GT during development and won the 2023 Goodwood Festival of Speed timed shootout in 45.34 seconds.
Solus GT
The game became hardware
The Solus GT turns McLaren's virtual Vision Gran Turismo design into a 25-car, single-seat track machine. A naturally aspirated V10, sub-1'000 kg target and closed canopy make it separate from every road-derived McLaren around it.

Overview
From Vision Gran Turismo to a 25-car series
McLaren published the Ultimate Vision Gran Turismo in 2017 as a digital design without road or racing regulations. Five years later it announced a physical customer programme based on the same single-seat idea.
The production Solus GT exchanged the concept's hybrid V8 for a Judd-derived 5.2-litre naturally aspirated V10 and a bespoke seven-speed sequential gearbox. Customers receive a fitted seat, race suit, helmet and driver-development programme with the car.
Its first public timed run came at Goodwood in July 2023. Factory driver Marvin Kirchhöfer won the shootout in 45.34 seconds, giving the car a measured result before most customer examples had been delivered.
