McLaren 720S
The McLaren 720S represents the perfect balance of everyday usability and track-focused performance. Its 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 produces 720 PS (710 hp), propelling this carbon fiber masterpiece to 100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds.
Aerodynamic Excellence
McLaren’s Proactive Chassis Control II and Variable Drift Control work in harmony with the car’s aerodynamic design. The 720S generates significant downforce without the need for large wings or spoilers, maintaining a clean, elegant silhouette.
Carbon Fiber Monocoque
The MonoCage II carbon fiber structure provides exceptional rigidity while keeping weight to a minimum. At just 1,283 kg dry weight, the 720S achieves a power-to-weight ratio that embarrasses many hypercars.
Dihedral Doors
The signature dihedral doors aren’t just for show—they’re engineered to cut into the roof, making entry and exit easier while maintaining structural integrity. They’re a perfect example of McLaren’s form-follows-function philosophy.
Technology
- Proactive Chassis Control II with hydraulically interconnected suspension
- Variable Drift Control allows precise control of slip angles
- Active aerodynamics optimize downforce and cooling
- Lightweight construction with extensive use of carbon fiber
Daily Usability
Unlike many supercars, the 720S is genuinely usable every day. The suspension can be softened for comfort, visibility is excellent, and there’s even decent luggage space. It’s a supercar you can actually live with.
The McLaren 720S proves that you don’t need a naturally aspirated engine to create an emotional, engaging supercar. Its combination of turbocharged power, aerodynamic sophistication, and everyday usability makes it one of the most complete supercars ever built.
