What is the McLaren 750S?
The 750S is a two-seat, mid-engined supercar offered as a coupé or open-top Spider. It belongs to McLaren’s Super Series lineage, with a compact cabin and a petrol V8 at its heart. The low body and driver-focused layout leave passenger and luggage space secondary to the driving experience.
McLaren’s roots lie in motor racing: Bruce McLaren founded the team in 1963. The 750S develops the formula established by the 720S, applying the company’s racing-influenced engineering to a road car.
