CORE SALES ARGUMENTS
McLaren Sport Series 570GT vs. Porsche 911 Turbo S (991)

Due to the Sports Series 570GT utilising Carbon Fibre for chassis construction, a far better power to weight ratio can be
achieved (381PS vs. 363PS). With a few lightweight options ticked, this figure can rise to (394PS vs. 363PS)

Sports Series 570GT has a side hinged Glass Hatch , allowing access to the Touring Deck. Though 911 has rear space, access
is exclusively through the rear seats

Four wheel drive gives the 911 an advantage off the line but by 200 km/h the Sports Series 570GT has caught and passed
the Turbo S

The Porsche 911 has been the bestselling vehicle in the segment it arguably created for many years. The shape has evolved
in time and therefore is always familiar between models and generations. Sports Series will establish a new and exciting
silhouette in the Sport Car market and will always remain more exclusive.

Sports Series features dihedral doors offering great access while also making a statement

Sports Series has a more exotic engine with links to the McLaren P1™ whereas the Porsche has common parts with
a Boxster

Sports Series favours a mid-engine, rear while drive
setup which favours weight distribution for better turn in
