2019-McLaren-720S-3
The 2019 McLaren 720S just may be the definition of “supercar”. Especially if your definition of a supercar is a sports car with more power than you may likely ever use. You see, the McLaren 720S is the fastest production car ever manufactured by the automaker. That's pretty impressive when you consider McLaren's long history in racing. What you're getting with the 720S is impeccable design, extraordinary power, and an attention-getting, head-turning supercar that without question, will impress. 2019-McLaren-720S-5

Strap Yourself In for a Ride of Your Life

It is likely you've never experienced the power and acceleration available under your right foot like that offered by the 2019 McLaren 720S. The 4-liter twin-turbo V-8 engine can reach a top speed of 212 mph. The engine produces an astounding 710 hp and 568 lb-ft of torque. The zero to 60 time is a blistering 2.5 seconds. Feel the need to hit the century mark quickly? The 720s has a zero to 100, pedal to the metal time of just 5.3 seconds. There's a few things to remember about all this power. The mid-engine design means this power is being produced right behind the Monocell II carbon fiber tub. This becomes part of the thrill of driving a McLaren. Its deep roar is part of the experience. You can actually hear the air being sucked into the turbochargers. The speed and acceleration are not generated by power alone, but by McLaren's almost obsessive attention to the power to weight ratio in the 720S. This McLaren weighs in at just 3,167 lbs, making it one of the leaner supercars available. On the road or the track, the 720S provides a ride that shifts smooth and hugs the road. The 7-speed dual clutch transmission is a joy. An advanced Adaptive Road Suspension keeps the car firmly in balance and in place. McLaren's Active Aero Flow discretely hides the rear spoiler until it is needed upon accelerating. It raises like an airbrake when making a quick stop after deployed.

An Interior that Feels as Fast as it Looks

The racing-inspired interior is cozy but offers surprising head and shoulder room. Driver and passenger are nestled in racing-inspired seats. Infotainment options are digitally available on a center console. The gauge cluster provides a wealth of important data on a bright, easy-to-read screen. The real show-stopper in the interior of the 720S is that at the push of a button, the gauge cluster will tuck away when in track mode, revealing a secondary, straightforward display designed to minimize distractions when on the track. 2019-McLaren-720S-1

There's Beauty in all that Power

With all the talk of weight to power ratios, horsepower, torque, and amazing acceleration times, one might think the 720S is a combination of large scoops, vents, grilles, and spoilers. This too is an area where the 720S excels. It is classically and superbly styled. Aerodynamics are applied almost seamlessly on, around and under in creating a smooth, sleek appearance that is functional and stunning. The iconic dihedral doors and haunched rear hips make a statement that this is pure McLaren.

A Special Car for Those with High Expectations

The McLaren 720S is for a special few. It is for those want a top-tier supercar and have the means to obtain it. It is designed for those who appreciate the sound of an engine performing at its powerful best. Are you up to it?

2020 McLaren 720S

The most challenging part of describing the 2020 McLaren 720S is deciding whether it is more like a fighter jet or a Formula 1 race car. Maybe it's time to recognize that the 2020 McLaren 720S is just what it is, an exotic supercar that appeals to just about all the senses, and does so intentionally. Incredibly light, insanely powerful and almost unimaginably aerodynamic. The 2020 McLaren 720S is created with purposeful appeal for those who appreciate the unique qualities of an exceptional supercar. If price is an obstacle, move on. If not, move forward. This is an automobile crafted to lift you to the new levels you may be seeking to achieve. The 2020 McLaren 720S has been called the “everyday supercar.” If every day was your birthday and Christmas rolled into one. A Thrill Ride is Just the Push of a Pedal Away The McLaren 720S for 2020 is packed with power from a 4.0 liter, twin-turbocharged V-8 engine that produces a thrilling 710 hp at 7500 rpm. This translates to 568 lb-ft of torque. The twin-turbo's talents however, are saved for the open road. This creates two definitive experiences, one that is smooth around town. The other, when the pedal is pushed to coax them to life. It is then you are rocketed forward. In real terms, this means the 720S will propel you from zero to 60 in a mere 2.8 seconds. It will soar over a quarter mile track in just 10.4 seconds. The 7-speed dual clutch pairs superbly with the gearbox in providing a “hands-on” feel whether in Track, Comfort or Sport mode. Larger, carbon fiber shift paddles behind the uncluttered steering wheel enhance the driving experience. This is a thrill ride you'll never tire of, and never tire of sharing. Chiseled to Perfection Outside, the dramatic forward-cabin design is chiselled to perfection, with every curve, vent and airflow included purposefully. Yours is the best seat in the house, looking down the nose of the 720S to the road ahead. Like the front seat of a roller coaster, this alone provides a higher level of thrills. The driver-centric cabin places all your controls within easy reach. The 2020 McLaren 720S is built around the racing-inspired MonoCage II carbon fiber tub. The MonoCage II provides a safer cocoon for those inside. It delivers a more rigid ride, one that is lower to the ground than most. The premium Pirelli P Zero tires are staggered slightly higher in the rear, gripping the pavement. Large, powerful carbon-ceramic brakes provide confident stopping power. Fun in Functional You may not take your 2020 McLaren 720S for a weekend of camping or kayaking, but it will certainly stow enough luggage for a weekend trip to your favorite retreat. It is comfortable for longer stretches of roadway and attention has been paid to providing a superior view. It drives smoothly and easily in the city and will quickly put traffic behind you on the open road. “Everyday supercar” may depend on what every day is like for you, or perhaps what you want it to be. We personally invite you to experience the new line-up of McLaren motorcars, including the 720S for yourself. Slide into its aircraft-inspired cockpit and bring its powerful V-8 twin turbocharged engine to life. Experience the 720S fully as your confidence grows.
