McLaren Solus GT
Born from a historic lineage of motorsport excellence, McLaren Automotive continues to engineer its line of supercars and hypercars that focus on creating a true track-like experience. Since the initial announcement of McLaren’s new ultra-rare race platform, each of the lucky 25 owners of the Solus GT waits in anticipation as their configurations are set for a 2023 delivery.

Ferrari Purosangue
Finally making its anticipated debut in the super-SUV market, Ferrari introduces the Purosangue as its first-ever four-door model with four seats. More than 75 years of manufacturing and engineering led Ferrari to create an SUV with Prancing Horse DNA, utilizing the perfect blend of road performance, off-road capability, and everyday practicality.

The 911 GT3 RS family is made up of seven generations that all incorporate characteristics and aspects from its predecessors, setting the benchmark for performance car production around the world. Nineteen years after its initial debut, Porsche is proud to keep its historic lineage going with the new 992 generation 911 GT3 RS. Because of the incredible power of the 911 GT3 RS’ engine, Porsche focused on aerodynamics and weight reduction to make the 992 Porsche 911 GT3 RS better than ever.
Pagani Utopia
Leading the way for hypercar development and manufacturing, Pagani Automobili generates its forward-thinking approach from the mind of founder Horacio Pagani. Gracing the automotive world with impressive creations like the Zonda and Huayra, the all-new Pagani Utopia continues the brand’s legacy with state-of-the-art design, technology, and performance.

Lamborghini notes that the Huracán Tecnica will have a 0 to 60 mph time of 3.2 seconds and a top speed of around 202 mph.
