About the G50

The G50 was developed to celebrate 50 year of production of Ginetta Cars. With base specifications penned by trained engineer Tomlinson, the car was developed in under six months. It is a celebration of 50 years of Ginetta.

Launched in 2008, the G50 was awarded Autosport National Car of the Year in its first year.

With its own Ginetta GT Supercup one-make series, the G50 has also been undefeated GT4 class championship winner in every season of British GT Championship, and won the GT4 European Cup in 2009, beating Aston Martin, BMW and Porsche.

As a result, Ginetta Cars won “Small Business of the Year” from the Motorsport Industry Association in 2008, and in 2009 Tomlinson was nominated by the MIA for the “Outstanding Contribution to Motorsport” award

The first Ginetta G50 road-registered car was shown in Aril 2008,[4] and then took part in the Silverstone Supercar Tour.

Both the new production model and the track car feature a 3.5L Ford petrol V6 engine with 300hp under the bonnet, and send drive to the rear wheels via a Quaife six-speed sequential gearbox. An even more powerful V8 model is in the works and is expected to develop more than 520hp when it arrives at the end of the year.
