Gordon Murray plans track-focused T.33s for mid-2025


  • The GMA T.33 supercar is set to gain a track-focused “s” version
  • The T.33s will be the third and final version of the V-12-powered T.33
  • GMA will then launch a different type of car boasting a new platform

The U.K.’s Gordon Murray Automotive (GMA) will unveil a more track-focused “s” version as the third and final version of the company’s T.33 supercar in mid-2025, Gordon Murray has revealed.

“Next summer we’ll launch the third and final variant, which will be the 33s, and that’s going to be tougher and more focused,” Murray, who serves as executive chairman of GMA’s Gordon Murray Group parent, said during an Autocar podcast published on Dec. 25.

Murray said the T.33s won’t be a track-only model like the T.50s Niki Lauda based on the T.50 supercar, but it will still come with upgrades designed to enhance track performance, like increased downforce and more focused suspension settings. More power is also possible.

The T.33 is a V-12 sports car unveiled by GMA in early 2022 as the follow-up to the T.50. It features a 3.9-liter V-12 developed by GMA in partnership with Cosworth, with the engine tuned to deliver 608 hp in standard guise.

GMA T.33 Spider

An open-top T.33 Spider was unveiled in 2023. GMA is building 100 examples of each body style, and it’s likely the production run of the new T.33s will be in addition to the other models. The T.50s Niki Lauda has a production run of 25 cars, which is in addition to the 100-car run for the standard T.50.

Production of all T.33 versions will be handled at GMA’s plant in Highams Park, U.K. GMA said all build slots for the T.33 and T.33 Spider are accounted for. GMA has said T.33 production will start after T.50 production is complete, though a firm date hasn’t been provided.

After the completion of all T.33 versions, including the new T.33s, Murray in the Autocar podcast said GMA will launch a completely “different type of car” boasting a new platform. He didn’t say what engine will power the next model, but the company has said that it will keep offering V-12 cars as long as regulations allow, and that with hybrid technology the V-12 engine could still be sold well into the next decade.
