Born through a conversation between Richard Tuthill and client Elliot Ross, the film producer and car collector, the Tuthill GT ONE was designed to be the ultimate Grand Tourer. Styled by California based designer Florian Flatau and inspired by the FIA GT1 class, we have taken inspiration from all that we have done in the past but focused on producing a wonderful road car.
With a rich history marked by innovation and victory, Tuthill stands out in the competitive automotive space. Over the past 50 years, the company has earned a reputation for reliability, competitiveness, desirability, and integrity, making it a formidable force in the market. Recent achievements on the track further underscore the company‘s prowess. However, road cars have always remained a significant focus.
In 2022, Tuthill unveiled the 911K at The Quail, an outstanding modern interpretation of Porsche’s iconic 911 S/T. With a weight of 850 kg and featuring an engine that revs to 11,000 RPM, the 911K received rave reviews, with renowned journalist Chris Harris remarking on its unparalleled driving experience.
In addition, Tuthill has also built 15 individually customised Porsche 993-based SCRS road cars, paying homage to the Group B Porsche that ignited the company’s rallying legacy. The original factory SCRS models were homologation specials designed to enable Porsche‘s entry into the Group B rally era.
In 1993, the FIA introduced the GT1 race class for Le Mans, marking the beginning of one of the most iconic racing periods in the sport’s history. To date, more than 15 manufacturers have built cars for the GT1 class, creating a legacy of extraordinary competition and innovation. These homologation cars often had compromised road performance as they were built to allow manufacturers to optimise them for track use. This one is designed specifically for the road: Proudly introducing the GT ONE.
