McLaren 720S officially enters production in Woking

McLaren has celebrated the beginning of full production of the new 720S supercar, with the completion of the ‘Job#1’ car. Finished in Glacier White, the car is ready to leave the McLaren Production Centre in Woking, Surrey, England, having been hand-assembled by McLaren’s craftsmen and craftswomen.

The move to full production marks the beginning of a new chapter in the McLaren Automotive story, as the second generation of the Super Series - codenamed ‘P14’ - replaces the first generation, ‘P11’ model family that encompassed the original McLaren 12C and subsequent derivatives, as well as the McLaren 650S and 675LT.

The first of 15 new McLaren models confirmed for introduction by the end of 2022 under the company’s Track22 business plan, the 720S personifies the blend of extreme performance, crafted luxury and unparalleled driver involvement for which the brand is renowned. Lighter, faster and even more dynamically capable than the McLaren 650S it replaces, the 720S is powered by a 4.0-litre V8 twin-turbocharged engine that produces 720 hp. The result in performance terms is astonishing, with acceleration from 0-96 km/h achieved in just 2.8 seconds and 0-200 km/h taking 7.8 seconds. The maximum speed of McLaren’s new supercar is 341 km/h.

Available to order now from McLaren retailers, the 720S costs £208,600.
