McMurtry Automotive has revealed the production version of its Spéirling Pure, an all-electric single-seat hyper track car engineered around a patented Downforce-on-Demand™ system capable of generating up to 2,000kg of aerodynamic downforce regardless of vehicle speed.
Scheduled to make its public debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed from 9–12 July, the track-focused EV is priced at £995,000 (US$1.32 million), with customer deliveries expected to begin later in 2026.
Fan-Based Downforce Redefines Track Performance
The Spéirling Pure’s defining engineering feature is its patented Downforce-on-Demand system, which uses twin electric fans spinning at up to 23,000rpm to generate suction beneath the vehicle.
Unlike conventional aerodynamic packages that rely on airflow increasing with speed, the system produces maximum downforce even at low speeds, significantly increasing grip during acceleration, braking and cornering.
McMurtry said the technology also continues generating downforce during a spin, helping stabilize the vehicle and allowing it to come to a more controlled stop.
Engineered for Extreme Performance
Powered by a 1,000bhp electric drivetrain supplied by a 100kWh lithium-ion battery, the Spéirling Pure accelerates from 0 to 60mph in just 1.55 seconds and reaches a top speed of 190mph.
The vehicle is capable of generating 3g under both cornering and braking, placing it among the highest-performing track-only electric cars currently available.
According to McMurtry, the production model incorporates 95% newly developed components compared with earlier prototypes.
Engineering updates include a longer 2,200mm wheelbase, replacing the previous 2,000mm design, alongside a newly developed carbon-fiber monocoque chassis and hydraulic power-assisted steering to improve handling and driver confidence.
Designed for Practical Track Operation
Despite its extreme performance, McMurtry says usability was a key design objective.
The company designed the car so that a single driver and one technician can operate it during track events without requiring a large support crew.
Battery charging from 20% to 95% takes between 20 and 60 minutes, depending on charging conditions, allowing multiple driving sessions during a single track day.
Thomas Yates, Co-founder and Managing Director of McMurtry Automotive, said the production vehicle combines record-setting performance with greater accessibility.
“The Spéirling Pure marks the beginning of a new era in track driving with mind-bending performance to suit all levels of owner, from weekend enthusiasts to professional drivers.”
He added:
“In production form, the car is significantly more usable, but no less outrageous. In terms of exhilaration, grip, acceleration, sound, aesthetics and technology, we offer something that no other manufacturer is able to.”
