The new GT has been fully engineered and designed to incorporate the latest in performance engineering, as well as significant ride and handling advancements.

The GT is powered by the upgraded 5.4-litre Boss V8 engine, producing 315kW of power at 6,500rpm and 551Nm of torque at 4,750rpm. Most importantly, the increased power does not compromise on fuel economy and in automatic guise; the GT boasts fuel economy figures of 14L/100km (ADR 81/01) a decrease in fuel consumption of 4.8 percent over the previous BF MKII model.

Matched to the performance is the Brembo braking package featuring 355 x 32mm cross-drilled and ventilated front rotors with Brembo 4-piston calipers and 328 x 26mm cross-drilled and ventilated rear rotors with single red piston caliper as standard. The GT also features the new TR6060 6-speed manual transmission as standard and also offers the technologically advanced ZF 6-speed automatic transmission with Sequential Sports Shift, as a no cost option.

From a safety aspect, the GT comes with driver and front passenger airbags, curtain airbags plus front seat side thorax airbags, Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), 4-channel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and reverse sensing system.

Completing the package is the GT's bold exterior styling, including the striking new Mid or Dark Argent headlight accents, Black Chrome front grille, large rear wing, side striping and the V8 bonnet bulge accented with a newly designed Boss 315 hood decal.

It's all about performance and the new GT delivers much more than ever before.
