The McLaren P1, introduced in 2015, is a limited-production to 375 units, high-performance sports car that combines cutting-edge technology, aerodynamics, and hybrid powertrain to deliver an exhilarating driving experience. The heart of the McLaren P1 is its advanced powertrain, which combines a powerful internal combustion engine with an electric motor. The car is equipped with a mid-mounted 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine that produces 727 horsepower and 531 lb-ft of torque. This engine is mated to an electric motor that adds an extra 177 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque. The combined output of the powertrain is a staggering 903 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque. Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
The McLaren P1 is designed to offer exceptional performance on both road and track. It can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.7 seconds and has a top speed electronically limited to 217 mph. One of the notable features of the P1 is its Instant Power Assist System, which provides additional electric boost for instant acceleration, delivering an instantaneous response to driver inputs.
Aerodynamics play a crucial role in the P1's performance. The car features an active aerodynamics system that automatically adjusts various elements, including the rear wing, flaps, and diffuser, to optimize downforce and reduce drag. This system adjusts itself based on speed, braking, and cornering forces, ensuring maximum stability and agility.
The P1's chassis is a lightweight and rigid carbon fiber monocoque, which provides excellent structural integrity and torsional rigidity while keeping the weight low. The suspension system features double-wishbones with adaptive dampers and anti-roll bars, allowing for precise handling and excellent control over different road conditions. The P1 also employs an advanced braking system, utilizing carbon ceramic discs and regenerative braking to provide exceptional stopping power.
Inside the P1, the driver is surrounded by a driver-focused cockpit with a minimalist design. The instrument cluster provides vital information and includes various driving modes to suit different conditions, including a fully electric mode for low-speed urban driving. The car incorporates advanced technologies such as launch control, active aerodynamics, and a race-inspired steering wheel with integrated controls.
This particular example has been meticulously looked after and maintained and just recently undergone a no expense spared nut and bolt restoration by renown P1 specialists Lazante which also included the all important replacement of the Hybrid Battery Pack. Arguable the preferred choice of the "Holy Trinity" this particular example is by far the best and most unique to come to market in recent years.
