What is the Donkervoort GTO?
The GTO is a two-seat Dutch sports car designed around a close connection between driver and road. Its D8 GTO generation brought a larger body, extensive carbon-fibre construction and an Audi five-cylinder turbo engine. Donkervoort unveiled the first prototype in 2011, beginning a new chapter for the company’s lightweight sports cars.
D8 GTO generations and engines
The D8 GTO generation ran from 2013 to 2022. It was a substantial redesign of the earlier D8, sharing few parts with its predecessors and adopting a wider, longer body. Later editions, including the JD70, developed the GTO idea while keeping its two-seat sports-car layout.
In EU registration figures, the GTO is listed with a 2.5-litre petrol engine producing 265 kW (360 PS). Donkervoort’s history describes the D8 GTO as a milestone in the company’s development.
