Solus GT: Performance at the intersection of fantasy and reality
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ก.ย. 2024
- A world-first. An extreme McLaren design concept born in the virtual racing world. Now made real. And ultra-rare. There will only ever be 25 Solus GTs.
Rendered possible through McLaren’s position at the apex of motorsport, supercar and hypercar development - this is a pure expression of track driving focus and engagement.
It began as an audacious, extreme concept sketch. Solus GT then launched into the hot competition of the gaming world in Gran Turismo SPORT in 2017, where it raced to virtual victories. It was from these totally uncompromising roots that the hyper-exclusive track car was born. Untainted by rules or regulations. Straight from the world of imagination to raw, tactile reality.
Fantasy has become reality.

The Bugatti Mistral, Koenigsegg CC850, Lamborghini Urus Performante, and now the McLaren Solus. What a day!
Ikr!!!!
GREAT NEW CARS
🥵
Mate!
Yo what the hell is going on today??!
Crazy to see a VGT being produced. What's crazier to me is that it sounds exactly like the Red Bull X2014 did in GT6. Almost 1:1 minus the clipping in GT6 and the rev limit (10,000 vs. 15,000 for the X2014). Wonder if if there's any story behind that. Awesome to see such a wild car being made.
this is the mclaren ultimate vision (former) concept car from gran turismo
@@iloveucupid thats exactly what I was thinking!!
@@iloveucupid I know. I'm just pointing out that the car it's based on, the Ultimate, doesn't sound anything like that (different powertrain entirely, I know, which is sorta my point) yet it's based on that. But the Solus does sound like the X2014 and has absolutely no ties to it whatsoever.
You really dont know how it sound, its a edited video with sound fx. There is no story behind that, you are just trying to made it xD
Hmm, close, but its not, it has the sounds of the 2010 f1 cars with the v8 engines
The McLaren Ultimate Vision Gran Turismo comes to life!
My favourite car in the game!
Not really... VGT has over 1000 hp and is like 900 kg. Real thing has 840 hp and is 1000 kg.
@@SuperGeronimo999
The car still comes to life… it was a concept and is now a real car. Just with different specs. And anyway, McLaren are known for understating and lying about their car horsepower.
The 570S, 720S and 765LT are good examples of that. Especially the LT. Claimed at 765hp, but dyno shows it makes at least 855hp. The 720S actual horsepower is even more than the 765LT claimed power.
My point is, they may tell you 840hp but it could really have 950hp like the Group 1 (Gr1) version. 840hp is less than what the 765LT actually has. I doubt they would leave it there.
@@projectr2451 engine isn't even made by them, and ingame it was a hybrid...
@@SuperGeronimo999
Doesn’t really negate anything I said…
Crazy, they're actually producing the Vision GT
The way how that things looks and sounds is out of this world! Great job McLaren! You never fail to impress.
Never thought they would use a freaking V10. What a dream come true.
They made the Mclaren VGT car from GT sport to a real thing, holy shit
Yeah... if you decrease power and add weight to match the specs of the Solus GT, it even hits its projected top speed right to the mph. I've been running a 6:18 on Nordschleife (first attempt, not 100% serious) with street legal (sport soft) tires.
I am honestly speechless. I never thought that I would see the unveiling of a V10 powered Mclaren! I am really excited for this car and Im really happy that my favorite car amaker would use my favorite type of engine! This is amazing for the car community in general, and I think that Mclaren is doing the right move with this =D
Only 25 will be made
Who said, it has a V10??
@@Kazuya720 it’s widely known it’s a v10
@@Kazuya720 watch schmees video on it its a V10
@@troycollett8540 now I know, its great!
i can not thank you guys enough for keeping the v10 alive it means so much in the car community i thought it would be dead after audi and lamborghinis controversial decision
A naturally-aspirated 5.2-litre V10 engine and seven-speed, sequential shift gearbox.😲
10,500 RPM
Who said that?
@@Kazuya720 literally written on the Mclaren website.
@@TurboAlice Youre, right I haven't seen it at first glance. This is amazing!
Top speed?
Extremely cool. Love the speedmark shaped cooling grilles at the rear
Wow! Impressive! And a NA v10! So nice to see! An advancement, way too many car companies are going backwards. They are so afraid to make anything other than an EV. SO REFRESHING to hear this amazing engine
AMEN!! Couldn’t agree more
So excited to have my music placed in this awesome vid by McLaren! Wow! ✨✨✨
How is possible this beast?!!! Congrats Mclaren, nice job, very nice job!
"The Aston Martin Valkyrie is amazing nothing comes close" - _The internet_
"..and I took that personally" - _McLaren_
Still didn't come close
I mean, the Valkyrie is road legal and this isn’t, so it’s not really the same...
@@SirSillageSniffington just a joke
@@william_SMMA just a joke if you couldn't tell
Well it is very funny to even compare this to the Valkyrie.
Wasnt too sure about the design at first. It seems too short infront of the wheels, however you absolutely had me with that V10. Sounds incredible
Mclaren best hyper car brand in the world
Insane stuff revealed today with the Mistral the CC850 and now this it's insane and it sounds sooo good
The Venom F5 Roadster also....
@@FahadFSA ew.
For the Roadster part btw
@Fahad Sultan Your right I forgot about that and also I forgot about the Urus Performante
Do you guys think they developed this engine from scratch for this limited production car?
Would be quite surprising given the fact that they use (derivatives of the) same engine throughout their line up and even across generations mostly.
5.2L V10 immediately brings the R8/Huracan to mind, but I also couldn‘t imagine this kind of cooperation.
It's supplied by Judd
720S has a 4.0L V8, if they gave 1 more cylinder per bank it'd be a 5.0 V10. If they wanted to, i'd bet Riccardo could do that without much trouble. It's a Judd GV variant though
@@chrisdavidson911 if they re-engineered the v8 it would need a balance shaft as its v angle is 90 degrees. That would make no sense. The Judd is a well proven engine for racing.
@@MTreddevil12 what is judd?
@@FahadFSA oh boy.
Now we need this to compete in LeMans. Now that's going to be exciting if it does.
Genuinely got goosebumps listening to this beast - what a glorious engine
It is nice being a Mclaren fan.
I´m really impressive for see the new McLaren, have a radical and extreme design and sounds amazing.
All of these limited run track only hypercars being released - the Valkyrie, the AMG One, the Bolide, and now the Solus GT - makes me wonder if there's some new race series in the works for cars such as these. Considering just how bespoke and undeniably track focused these cars are it seems they were all made for a similar purpose, not just as insanely expensive playthings for the hyper rich. Or maybe I'm getting ahead of myself. I'd love to see a showdown between all these track focused cars
YOOOOO THATS THE CAR FROM GT SPORT LETS GOO
Thought this was an LMH announcement but it looks pretty cool nonetheless
we can hope and dream it will become a lmh one day
McLaren VGT brought to life.
Visión Gran Turismo😮😮
i’ve been waiting all day for this to be unveiled
Was not expecting that... OMG
Dang. Everyone l’s bringing out the big hitters this week. Mclaren with this. Bugatti with the mistral, Koenigsegg with the CC580, and Porsche brought in another RS. What a time to be alive.
V10 perfection
What a sound! I wish there was no music just the car's sounds
I love this design that so exotic
That car with GULF livery it going to be beautiful 😍😍
Im glad judd coukd be back le mans what a sound if you have never heard one you need to
MCLAREN, THE BEST BRAND IN THE WORLD 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
THEY REVIVED THE LFA SOUND, THATS MY FAVORITE CAR
very nice mclaren solus gt
that car sounds amazing. period
Oh look, yet another special run, limited edition, high performance mclaren. But I’ll give it to them tho, because unlike every other mclaren (limited run or regular) this doesn’t have that same old twin turbo v8. The 10,000 rpm 5.2L v10 is definitely a treat.
Omg only Mclaren could pull this off
McLaren vision GRANTURISMO
Love the sound of this new concept cat from McLaren 💙
Thanks McLaren!!! The future that we want
McLaren shud enter LMDH category with this!!
Looks like one of em
McLaren VGT is now real. I am ECSTATIC
Judd is back mclaren and judd le mans ??? Best v10 sound ever
The aston martin valkyrie and now this !? Oh boy... That's the good stuff !
Mclaren Solus is a cool car
It’s the McLaren Ultimate VGT!
This is a work of art
MCLAREN PLEASE TAKE THIS CAR TO LE MANS
So_Cool!!!🔥
Ultimate Vision GT!🤑
Only took 11 years for mclaren to finally use a different engine that’s not boring af like the normal twin turbo v8… we want NA and it’s about time
wtf are blabbing about..stfu they are only making 25 of these...about time LOL gtfoh
Fantasie and reality
What a crazy day!
Bro they can't be serious with that noise WOOOOOW magnificent 😍
Mclaren its my dream..
One day
.
OMG i love you McLaren. No shitty electric engine, just a pure n/a v10 and it's amazing sound
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSS
Confusing is the car's name, I thought it's "Souls GT" but it's actually "Solus GT"
This is the vision car from gt7
Glorious downforce! GLORIOUS V10!!!
What a great and dramatic piece of engineering.
I was really hyped, I though McLaren was joining the 2023 WEC, still really really cool that a VGT is actually being made
its a f1 vibe giving car ngl😍
This is peak WEC LMH material. McLaren really should push for a Le Mans entry with the Solus.
It's a single seater, sadly LMH/LMDh cars needs to have a cockpit that has enough space for 2 seats 😥😥😥
@@kristianangeloni actually no, that rule no longer exists. The SCG 007 has been competing and will continue to compete as a centre mounted single seater. What let's SCG do that is that they have promised to produce road legal homologated versions of the 007, which McLaren is also doing with the Solus.
The Solus could be a prime WEC competitor. Shame that McLaren isnt even considering investing in a WEC program.
@@arjun._.bbC6 Actually no.
First: the SGC 007 LMH don't have a central mounted seater but is on the left, and it has the space for a second seat on the right.
cdn-1.motorsport.com/images/mgl/0ZRoVLo0/s8/glickenhaus-007-lmh-1.jpg
Second: that rule still exist.
"The volume which accommodates the driver and the passenger.", straight from LMH FIA Technical Regulations, 1.15

If a varient of this doesnt end up in WEC i will be absolutely stunned...
it won't
Looks a lot like the Vision gran turismo concept mclaren
This thing looks badass holy crap
❤️
Sounds like it has more than 8 cylinders 🤔 👍
It’s a N/A V10
It has a 5.2l V10 that revs to 10.000 rpm
Imagine if this switched names with the senna
i think Solus GT would fit for the Senna, and Senna would definitely fit for this...
Here for the sound.
WOW!
We need a true "hypercar" championship ! Com'on , imagine that again the bugatti bolide , the t50s niki lauda , the lamborghini essenza scv12 , pagani hyura r and more !
Not sure what you mean true “hypercar”
@@lilquincy6292
I'm talking about the hypercar serie in endurance (wec)
@@guillaume_Chr Well, all those cars you just mentioned above aren’t competing and will never compete in WEC. And McLaren has already made 2 hypercars in the past with the F1 & P1.
They actually produced the VGT!? That’s awesome!!
This might enter LMPH in Endurance Racing against Porsch, Peugeot....
Im prayin
McLaren will spank em
Dont forget Ferrari
It is literally the McLaren Vision GT. But with another name. I really like that car and this real version is awesome
More than that , it has a v10 🔥 compared to the original v8 twin turbo !
Seating position, no aerodisc wheel and v10 engine but body and design cues are the same wow
Laughs in Manny Koshbin...GREAT SUCCESS!
Take it up PIKES PEAK!! ⛰ 🏎💨
SCREAM from the Hills You beast of a V10!!! Let them hear you!!!
What an amazing car!
🔥🔥🔥
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I actually wonder if Mclaren wants to enter Le Mans, this would be a great choice for an entry
They've said they might enter, though it would likely be with an LMDh and not this thing unfortunately
Finally a vgt being produced
Good base for a LMH car 😎🙏
THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE!!! MCLAREN!!! *HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!*
OMG!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍
Yooooo I like that car
Please make it compete in LeMans Hypercar.
HOLY SHIT, this thing is so much better than Valkyrie. McLaren, you are the best!!!!!! 😲
Lol no it's not
Much better, check out the specs.
@@blaise3711 Actually the specs are in favor of Aston Martin Valkyrie, except for the weight
Downforce: 1200kg vs 1800kg
Power: 840ps vs 1160ps
Kg:
It’s not road legal, so it’s not the same. How they managed to make the Valkyrie such a monster AND road legal is the amazing part.
@@kristianangeloni the Valkyrie is near1500kg with fluids and develops 1800kg of downforce at top speed which is nothing less than 218mph this generates two tonnes at 200mph
Wow it's like we're in supercar week or something
McLaren, I beg of you, put this engine in som mass-produced model
What a breath taking
V10 🎶💘
Ok but please make it an lmdh car. It would be incredible. Already looks the part.
Lemans potential.... that's all I can muster in saying at the moment.
