Vehicle Description
The McLaren P1 GTR is a special track version of the mighty P1, and
this car is the last one ever to be made and the first in the US.
It was custom ordered in bespoke Canepa Green with McLaren Orange
accents. Available only to McLaren P1 owners, production of the
track-focused GTR began upon completion of the 375th and final P1
road car.
Without road-car regulations to hold it back, the McLaren P1 GTR
pushes everything to the limit. The mid-mounted twin-turbo V8
engine and electric powerplant have a combined output of 1,000PS
(986bhp) and include an DRS-style push-to-pass system. The large
fixed rear wing features a Formula 1-derived Drag Reduction System
and the wing mirrors have been repositioned to the A pillars to put
them closer to the eye line of the driver and reduce aerodynamic
drag.
The car sits at a fixed ride height on race-prepared suspension
over 19-inch motorsport alloy wheels. There's also an onboard air
jacking system - borrowed from McLaren's 650S GT3 racer - for
quicker tire changes. Below the rear wing is the exposed, centrally
mounted inconel and titanium alloy exhaust. This all-new straight
cut twin pipe design has been developed exclusively for the GTR.
The system, according to McLaren: "maximizes the aural
characteristic to [...] further emphasize the McLaren sound." And
that McLaren sound is awesome.
The P1 GTR can accelerate from 0-60 mph in just 2.4 seconds, and
will go on to reach a top speed of 225 mph (362 km/h).
Additionally, the P1 GTR will brake from 60 mph to 0 in 85 ft, and
can corner at 1.54 G.
*Mileage is currently 193 kilometers, which is 120 miles.
