- GMA T.50 production will end in July, marking the conclusion of its limited run.
- The final example of the 100-unit supercar will be completed this summer.
- Gordon Murray announced two mysterious models will debut at Pebble Beach.
The end of an era is fast approaching as the Gordon Murray Group has announced production of the T.50 will stop in July. This moment has been years in the making as the car debuted in 2020 and the 100th model will be built this summer, marking the end of the limited edition supercar.

The company was surprisingly nonchalant about the news, but noted the T.50 is the “purest expression of driving perfection” and has been purchased by customers from 19 countries around the world. That’s selling the car short as the model has a naturally aspirated 3.9-liter V12 engine that produces 661 hp (493 kW / 670 PS). It’s connected to a six-speed manual, which enables the 2,198 lb (997 kg) supercar to defy logic.

Besides being lightweight and powerful, the T.50 is notable for having a rear-mounted fan that looks like something you’d find on a Batmobile. When the car was introduced, the company said it helped to reduce drag by 12.5% and add approximately 49 hp (37 kW / 50 PS) to the car’s output.
Goodwood And Pebble Beach Celebrations
While the T.50 is going away, the Gordon Murray Group announced it will reveal two models from their Special Vehicles division on August 15. They’ll debut at The Quail – A Motorsport Gathering, during Monterey Car Week.
The company isn’t saying much about them at this point, but one is a bespoke customer commission while the other was developed by the Gordon Murray Special Vehicles team. Both are said to embrace the “ethos of lightweight design and engineering art.”
Before the Pebble Beach festivities, the company will celebrate Gordon Murray’s 60 years of design at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. As part of this effort, the first car he designed in 1965 – an IGM Ford (T.1) that raced in South Africa – will be on display.
It will be joined by an assortment of other models including a 1974 BT44, a 1988 McLaren MP4/4, and 1992 LCC Rocket. They’ll be joined by a 2023 T.50 PS4, 2024 T.50s Niki Lauda XP1, and 2025 T.33 AP4 – among many others.
