This audio system, which was designed especially for the new McLaren GT, blends harmoniously with the interior of the vehicle. A carbon monocoque architecture, plus better insulation of this sports car, reduces external and internal engine noise, so that the quality of the sound system comes into its own. With brushed stainless-steel grilles and a custom-made hole pattern, the speakers seamlessly integrate into the interior space.
Statement by the Jury
The audio system’s perfectly situated speakers guarantee a high level of acoustic performance. The subdued elegance of the design is equally impressive.
