Legendary F1 and road-car...

Legendary F1 and road-car designer Gordon Murray is working on a successor to the spectacular McLaren F1. Murray who now heads up his own company, Gordon Murray Design, is currently working on the revolutionary T.25 city car, but an unnamed source at the firm has confirmed that there"s other projects in the pipeline.

Our source revealed that "a supercar is most definitely on the list," but refused to confirm any further details about Murray"s performance-orientated project. However, Murray has gone on the record slamming the latest offering from his old employer McLaren, the MP4-12C, calling it too heavy and inefficient to move the supercar game forward.

Just as the the T.25 is attempting to reinvent how we travel in urban areas, Murray"s supercar will take a sideways look at how we see high-performance. The aim will be an extremely high power-to weight ratio, with a smaller and more efficient engine. So expect the strongest and lightest materials that exist to be used liberally.

A third project is also under development, although details are yet to emerge. However, a spokesman for Gordon Murray Design confirmed that an announcement will be made in the next few weeks.
