Innovation in electric vehicles (EVs) continually pushes boundaries, but few innovations are as remarkable as a car capable of defying gravity itself. Meet the McMurtry Spéirling—an extraordinary electric sports car that is revolutionising automotive engineering and sustainable technology.
The Record-Breaking McMurtry Spéirling
The McMurtry Spéirling recently captured global attention by shattering the iconic Top Gear track record held by the Stig. With a phenomenal lap time of just 55.9 seconds, powered by a robust 1,000bhp electric motor, the Spéirling didn’t merely set a new standard—it smashed the previous record by no less than 3.1 seconds. Its ground-breaking fan-assisted downforce technology enables unparalleled grip and stability, even allowing the car to hang inverted without external aid.
Another unique reason this car wouldn’t look out of place in the Bat Cave… It can hang upside down. As Batmams sidekick Robin might say… “Holy hanging car, Batman!”
When put on a roadbed inside a piece of specialised apparatus that turns it upside down, the downward fans give it such a grip it actually can drive upside down. And when it’s turned the right way up again, it’s faster than an F1 car.
Collaboration with British Innovators
Over the years, we’ve been lucky enough to witness first-hand the remarkable partnership between McMurtry Automotive and another great British tech innovator, myenergi, a leader in EV charging solutions. Seeing exciting collaborations like this highlights British innovation at its absolute finest, merging advanced vehicle technology with cutting-edge sustainable charging solutions.
During the “What House Awards” held at London’s Royal Exchange, we gauged the public perception of the vehicle and asked “Why is the McMurtry Spéirling a Game-Changer in Electric Vehicles?”
And the answers are:
- High-Performance Electric Power: Features a powerful 1,000bhp electric motor for exceptional acceleration and speed.
- Innovative Fan-Assisted Downforce: Revolutionary aerodynamics provide exceptional stability, even enabling inverted driving.
- Eco-Friendly Design: Utilises fully electric power, carbon-fibre construction, and sustainable engineering practices to minimise environmental impact.
- Trailblazing Automotive Engineering: Inspired by legendary engineer Gordon Murray,cutting-edge technology is blended with an uncompromising pursuit of performance and precision.
Sustainable travel journalist Ric Boullemier commented. “ This might be the closest (road legal) thing to the Batmobile ever created. I remember watching this break the hill climb record a few years ago at Goodwood festival of speed and it’s great to see the team continuing to push boundaries. This vehicle is becoming an iconic piece of British innovation. So it was a match made in heaven seeing another British icon – The Stig – behind the wheel showing the jaw dropping performance achievable with this electric hypercar. I’m sure Batman is taking note and pulling together his deposit!”
The Future of Electric Performance
The McMurtry Spéirling doesn’t just symbolise the peak of electric vehicle performance—it embodies innovation, sustainability, and forward-thinking automotive engineering. It proves that electric vehicles are not only eco-friendly but also exhilarating and capable of extraordinary feats of engineering.
Even gravity can’t hold back the Spéirling – it’s truly innovation turned upside down!
