The new McLaren MP4-12C is the first in a range of high-performance sports cars from McLaren Automotive, the world’s most successful racing car company. McLaren set to re-write the rules of sports car design through Formula 1-inspired engineering, revolutionary chassis architecture and absolute focus on efficiency.
„It is a long-held dream of mine to launch high performance sports cars that set new standards in the industry“ says Ron Dennis, McLaren Automotive Chairman. 3.8 Litres V8 motor, 600 HP and a revolutionary carbon fibre chassis structure that only weighs 160 pounds are only a few of the many perks the McLaren MP4-12C offers. In fact, it’s the first time a car in this market segment is based around such a strong and lightweight racing car engineering solution and no other car has ever featured a one-piece carbon fibre structure.
Formula 1 based sports car design
This step in sports car design means that the new McLaren introduces new standards not only in handling, ride and outright performance, but also safety, economics and practicality.
A very special highlight is the interior design which reminds the driver of a Formula 1 cockpit: the assistant system “Brake Steer”, two electrically adjustable seats, operational controls in the doors and the centre console and a touchscreen for the navigation system as well as for the high-end sound system are to be found.
