McMurty’s Speirling Pure revealed and ready for production

A production-ready version of McMurty’s record-breaking Speirling hypercar is now available to buy – with a single car costing close to £1 million.

While the original Speirling smashed numerous records, including the Goodwood hillcimb which took it just 39.08 seconds to complete in 2022, this new model – called the Speirling Pure – has been adapted with additional features and a more comfortable cabin.

The car’s wheelbase has grown from two metres to 2.2 metres, allowing for a larger 100kWh battery to be fitted. As a result, McMurty says that the Speirling has a better ‘overall running time’. A secondary hinged door should help to make entering and exiting the vehicle easier, too.

Underneath the ‘swan-neck’ rear wing is a boot compartment that can store a helmet and HANS safety device while new headlights mean that the Speirling can be used on circuit during night driving.

The clever ‘downforce-on-demand’ fan system now has new blades for better durability and the overall assembly has been relocated to improve the car’s centre of gravity. The system can generate up to 2,000kg of downforce at the press of a button and at a standstill, allowing the Speirling to achieve up to 3g of force when braking. Two high-speed fans effectively ‘suck’ the car to the ground.

When engaged, the Speirling can go from 0-60mph in just 1.55 seconds before carrying onwards to 180mph.

Inside, the cabin has moved on from the rather functional setup of the original. Each driver’s seat will be moulded to the owner, with a bespoke steering wheel incorporating key controls and a screen placed behind it relaying all driving information.

The McMurty Speirling Pure can be ordered now, with prices starting from £995,000 before local taxes are applied.
