McLaren’s best product is making the way to consumers.
You’ve certainly heard some people lamenting how all McLaren’s versions look alike. But they’d be mistaken to suggest the Speedtail is another slight modification of Woking’s famous formula 1.
One of the first customer cars to shipped has arrived at the dealer in Brussels in Belgium and we can all accept that it stands out with its swoopy shape and peculiar front wheels with aero coverings that stay locked as the wheels spin.
Specifications:
Although the Senna followed the concept of “action follows form”. As being a lightweight track animal, the unworldly nature of the Speedtail is all about attaining high speed. The fastest production car ever built by McLaren at 250 mph (403 km / h). A worthy spiritual heir to the inevitably aspired 243-mph F1 engine of the 1990s.
You won’t see much of these on the track. Because development will tightly limit to only 106 units to suit the famous F1 perfectly. All cases of carbon fiber-bodied UFO on wheels have long been sold out before taxes and options at £ 1.75 million ($2.16 M) apiece. Around the beginning of the year, customer deliveries of what McLaren describes as her first “Hyper-GT” kicked off.
The accompanying photos do not tell the whole story, because they can not explain the incredible footprint of the Speedtail. The car is currently 5.2 meters long (204.7 inches) and has a completely flat underfloor to optimize ventilation in combination with the elongated rear end to make the vehicle as sleek as it can.
The most aero-efficient road car ever designed by McLaren and can lower by 35 millimeters (1.4 inches) when the Velocity mode allows unleashing the maximum speed capacity. If it reduced, the highest point of the Speedtail is just 1120 mm (44.1) “above the ground.
The Speedtail is one of the many new members of the growing McLaren family. Who recently added the 765LT to the already powerful 720S as a harder version. Such vehicles are part of the Track25 marketing strategy launched at the Goodwood Festival of Speed a couple of years ago to reveal a £ 1.2 billion ($1.48 million). Commitment planned to deliver 18 new cars or derivatives before the end of 2025.
