The 'family' look of the front lights just dont work on the GT as the front of the car is so much longer then the MC20 where conversely they look far better.


Agreed, the rest looks very nice but those lights for me just don't work. Plus the colour choice of course but then maybe they know what next year's MY2023 cars are going to dressed in, and all manufacturers will be going for this rose gold look?

So how much would it cost to stick some batteries in a current Granturismo?
Ie a conversion.
I bet it’s not the cost of a new one!

If that really is the final look, I’m not sure I love it, and not sure generally as it doesn’t seem to move the game on from the old GT. It looks identical at first glance other than a new bonnet and front bumper? Not sure if that’s a good or bad thing as I love the old GT but expected something more radical from the new one.

For me it works up until you reach the front wheels going forward. Those rear wheel flared arches almost identical to the outgoing one.

It’s just that bonnet front and agree with everyone on the lights. The grill, I can’t make my mind up on. Why do I keep thinking Jag XJ220 lol

If i were asking for a conversion id keep the v8 and get them to retro fit the hybird system of the lexus 4×4 , so drive around town at 20mph silently then when speed restrictions put the foot down. Would sacrifice boot space for battery just need working out how the small motors attach

An interesting question will be if the new QP will share the same chassis? The new GT looks pretty long…

As someone with no experience of electric cars can you please explain as I genuinely don’t understand?
On a rapid charger the lead is on the 'pump' rather than you having to bring your own. This is due to how thick the lead needs to be to handle >50kwh.

Why the cover on the bonnet?.... is there a second type which meets the front bumper better?
