AC Cars, Britain’s oldest active vehicle manufacturer, has revealed the brutal new AC Cobra GT Coupe in production form. Unifying the historic AC Cobra’s iconic aesthetic with a fixed roofline and curvilinear rear, the GT Coupe represents a new era for the company, which is celebrating the 125th anniversary of its founding. The AC Cobra GT Coupe marks a bold new chapter for AC Cars as the company’s first production coupe and most focused grand touring model to date.
Sharing 75% of its engineering with the GT Roadster, the GT Coupe combines a lightweight aluminum spaceframe chassis, carbon-fiber bodywork, and a 5.0-liter V8 producing up to 730 PS, delivering supercar performance with 0-60 mph in under 3.5 seconds. Buyers can choose between naturally aspirated and supercharged powertrains, with either a six-speed manual or a 10-speed automatic transmission.
