AC, Britain's oldest active vehicle manufacturer, has released the first images of the new AC Cobra GT Coupe.
It is the first official AC Cobra coupe set for production, and is based on enhanced version of the existing AC Cobra GT Roadster platform.
Inspired by victories from AC's formative years, which includes the Monte Carlo Rally and the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the new AC Cobra GT Coupe adds motorsport-derived enhancements.
It retains key touch points from the Roadster but is in part inspired by the infamous AC A98 coupe Le Mans race car from 1964.
With production for the AC Cobra GT Coupe based at AC Cars' UK facilities, it's an evolution of the company's vehicle architecture with an aluminium chassis and optimised carbon-fibre body.
AC Cars is marking the arrival of the AC Cobra GT Coupe with details of the extreme Clubsport Edition, honed for the track. Limited to just 99 examples, and predominately featuring a 799bhp V8 powertrain, these will be the first cars delivered to clients - from the end of 2025 onwards.
The Clubsport Edition will be followed by the series production coupe, available with either a normally aspirated 450bhp V8 or 720bhp supercharged option.
The new AC Cobra GT Coupe is priced from £325,000 plus taxes - some £40,000 more that the Cobra GT Roadster which was launched in 2023.
With the same dimensions as the roadster, the coupe has a wheelbase of 2,570mm, and is 4,225mm long and 1,980mm wide. Its kerb weight will be confirmed ahead of production, but the Clubsport Edition has a set target of under 1,450kg.
