mclaren sports series

McLaren Denver has revealed a collection of six 600LT Spiders developed by McLaren Special Operations (MSO) to celebrate the Pikes Peak hillclimb. Each of the six cars are fitted with MSO Bespoke or Heritage paint, contrasting with a gold and matte black stripe and gold wheels. The entire collection is fitted with the MSO Club Sport Pack, which brings carbon-fibre aerodynamic add-ons, carbon-fibre louvres in the arches, titanium wheel bolts and seats nicked from the Senna.

McLaren has three distinct tiers in its model range: Sport, Super and Ultimate. But the line between the three continues to blur, thanks to cars like the 600LT. With 441kW and 620Nm on tap, the 600LT is capable of hitting 100km/h in just 2.9 seconds and keeps pulling to 328km/h if given a long enough stretch of road. That's fairly super in essentially every measurable way.

The new McLaren 600LT is the pinnacle of performance for the marque's 'entry-level' Sports Series family, so how does it compare to its bigger brother – the 720S? In a new video posted to YouTube, Hennessey Performance lines up a 600LT against a 720S for an old-school drag race. We've seen numerous videos where the 720S comfortably out-sprints more expensive supercars and hypercars, so how does the smaller 600LT fare?

The new McLaren Sports Series model, unofficially dubbed the '570LT', has been teased again ahead of its official reveal on June 28. In a new image published by the British supercar specialist, we can see the new Sports Series flagship will get top-mounted exhaust pipes – a design feature that isn't part of its current range other than the limited-run Senna.

The McLaren 570S Spider Design Edition has been revealed this week – well, one of them has – offering customers one of five new packages for "entirely harmonious" exterior and interior specification. Available to order now in overseas markets, each Design Edition features signature McLaren colour and trim options that have been "carefully curated" by the company's designers to "complement each other to perfection".
