McLaren 720s, power and lightness
Lighter and more powerful than the 650s, new really luxurious car from the Super Series collection, the McLaren 720s just came into production. Focus.
The ultimate supercar ?
Introduced at 2017 Geneva Motor Show, the McLaren 720s is already the object of every desires with its dynamic and sophisticated structure made of Monocage II carbon fiber, really rigid to protect its passengers in the event of a collision, even extreme. The cabin luxury goes on with aluminum alloy and components made of massive aluminum. Sit back behind its wheel and enjoy a driving as pleasant as balanced thanks to its Proactive Chassis Control, its suspensions and hydraulic power-assisted steering.
Power lovers will love its V8 biturbo engine of 4.0L with its 720 horsepower reaching 0 to 100 kilometers/hour in less than 3 seconds and 0 to 200 kilometers/hour in only... 7,8 seconds. Don't hesitate to go on a circuit to discover its full potential and its maximum speed of 341 kilometers per hour, no less ! And extreme power doesn't mean great pollution as the emission of pollutants coming from this second generation supercar is smaller.
We also appreciate the engine's cooling system monitored by the autoclave doors ("bats" doors), ending the radiator's air intakes that we used to find on previous McLaren' sides. For claustrophobic or tall persons, just know that the widen windscreen as well as the new sport seats are providing an unprecedented feeling of space and comfort. As for the technology and options, you will find an info-entertainment interactive system which communicates with the driver and sets navigation, sound and media but also a reverse camera and a driver assistance system with 360° vision. Finally, to customize the car body, its dashboard and other details, the driver can choose between 20 colors including seven especially designed for this car. Available in classic, Performance or Luxury versions, its starting price is at... 249 275€.
