I get behind the wheel of McLaren's latest 'LT', the 765 and take it on a 500 mile round trip to Alexander's Prestige in Yorkshire!
From McLaren about the 765LT:
- Next chapter in the McLaren ‘Longtail’ story begins with global unveiling of new 765LT
- 765PS and 800Nm from twin-turbocharged McLaren V8 engine enables 0-60mph in 2.7 seconds; 0-100km/h (62mph) in 2.8 seconds; 0-200km/h (124mph) in 7.2 seconds
- Transmission gearing optimised for throttle response - 15% quicker in-gear acceleration than a 720S and the fastest lap times of any McLaren Super Series model
- Lighter, in the LT tradition: 80kg less than 720S coupé at 1,339kg (DIN weight) and just 1,229kg at lightest dry weight - more than 50kg below its closest competitor in comparable specification
- Class-leading power-to-weight ratio of 622PS-per-tonne at lightest dry weight
- High-performance, lightweight materials throughout with advanced carbon fibre technologies for body components
- Specific weight-saving measures include titanium exhaust system, Formula 1-grade transmission materials, thinner glass and motorsport-style polycarbonate glazing
- New LT aerodynamic package, all in carbon fibre: front splitter, front bumper, front floor, side skirts, rear bumper, rear diffuser and larger ‘Longtail’ active rear wing
- Renowned McLaren Super Series chassis dynamics enhanced, with bespoke LT springs and dampers; increased front track width; lower front ride-height and unique software programme for state-of-the-art, linked-hydraulic Proactive Chassis Control II suspension
- 10-spoke Ultra-Lightweight forged alloy wheels, titanium wheel bolts and bespoke Pirelli P Zero™ Trofeo R circuit-bred tyres as standard
- Carbon-ceramic discs, calipers from the McLaren Senna and Formula 1-inspired, integrated caliper cooling ducts combine for superb brake pedal feel and incredible stopping power
- Quad-exit full-titanium exhaust system delivers a searing ‘LT soundtrack’, as well as a 40% weight-saving over a comparable steel system
- Motorsport-inspired interior design features carbon fibre racing seats, carbon fibre centre tunnel, exposed carbon fibre floor and lightweight Alcantara® throughout
- Optional double-glazed panel integrated within the carbon fibre rear upper structure showcases the McLaren V8 engine
- Air-conditioning and an audio system are deleted as standard to minimise weight, but can be specified at no additional cost
- MSO Clubsport and MSO Clubsport Pro packs group individual optional upgrades
- 765LT active rear wing, rear bumper and front floor designed, engineered and manufactured at the McLaren Composites Technology Centre (MCTC) in Yorkshire, UK - the first use of MCTC-produced carbon fibre body components in a McLaren road car
- Just 765 individually numbered cars available globally to customer order
