According to McLaren, this hyperthing will take "road-focused driving pleasure to new levels". Welcome then, to the well, we don"t know yet. It hasn"t got a name. But it has got a punch. McLaren tell us this dramatically styled open-cockpit roadster and its dihedral, low profile doors will join the top-tier Ultimate Series line up in about a year and a half, based on similar architecture that underpins the Senna and 720S. And while unique, it"ll still pack a non-hybrid, twin-turbo V8 to save mass and boost the power to weight ratio. Indeed, while the Senna tips the scales at 1,309kg and has 789bhp on tap, this new roadster will be lighter than that car indeed, the lightest McLaren ever built and have as much, if not more, power.
