McLaren Is Set To Reveal The Successor To The P1 On October 6

Key Highlights

  • The successor to the P1, named ‘1’, is set to debut on October 6.

  • Designed to exceed 916 hp from the P1, with expected output over 1,000 hp.

  • Features a completely new V8 engine paired with an advanced hybrid system.

  • Only 400 units will be produced, similar to the limited run of the P1.

McLaren's next hypercar, called the W1, is expected to be the successor to the P1 and will debut on October 6.

The new McLaren will use a naming format with a letter followed by the number one, linking it to the F1 and P1 models, symbolizing its place in McLaren's top road car lineup.

The car's official name hasn't been announced yet and is currently called P18, which likely won't be its final name. Like the F1 and P1, it will have '1' in its name.

Although a fully electric McLaren supercar is being developed, the upcoming ‘1’ hypercar will have a strong hybrid powertrain that aims to exceed the 916 hp of the P1. It will include a new V8 engine, different from the current models, combined with an advanced hybrid system, producing over 1,000 hp.

A fully electric McLaren supercar is in the works, but the upcoming ‘1’ hypercar will have a hybrid powertrain aimed at exceeding the P1's 916 hp. It will feature a new V8 engine that differs from the current McLaren models, paired with a cutting-edge hybrid system expected to produce over 1,000 hp.

Additional highlights include a newly designed carbon-fiber chassis, gullwing doors instead of the usual butterfly doors, and styling inspired by F1 race cars. Only 400 units will be made, similar to the P1, which had fewer than 375 units.

Verdict

McLaren is set to make a significant impact in the hypercar segment with the upcoming ‘1’ model, a successor to the iconic P1. Featuring an innovative hybrid powertrain that surpasses 1,000 hp and a distinctive design inspired by F1 racing, this limited-edition hypercar promises to deliver exceptional performance and cutting-edge technology. With only 400 units planned for production, the ‘1’ is poised to be a highly sought-after addition to McLaren's illustrious lineup, marking a new chapter in the brand's pursuit of automotive excellence.
