Overview
- AC has published full specs and opened order books for the GT Coupé, a fixed‑roof, series‑built Cobra that the company says will begin customer deliveries in 2028.
- The car uses a Ford 5.0‑litre V8 offered as a naturally aspirated unit (about 335 kW/456 PS) or a supercharged variant (about 537 kW/730 PS) with a quoted 0–100 km/h time near 3.5 seconds.
- Buyers can choose a six‑speed manual or a 10‑speed automatic, and AC lists a curb weight around 1,588–1,600 kg with near 50:50 weight distribution and largely carbon bodywork over a new aluminium platform.
- Pricing is published by AC at roughly €321,000 including German VAT for the base car with about a €30,000 premium for the supercharged version, and the brand says each vehicle will be individually assembled to customer specification in left‑ or right‑hand drive.
- AC says it has acquired a new production facility and intends to scale annual output from roughly 100 handbuilt cars to around 1,000 across its GT Coupé, Roadster and classic lines, a plan that depends on executing the factory, supply chains and converting orders between now and the planned 2028 start of deliveries.
