It’s time to share another episode of the McLaren Tech Club. The last episode dove into the design of the newest McLaren Longtail, the 765LT, but this episode looks into the McLaren Speedtail to give everyone an idea of what it feels like to drive the incredible machine for the very first time. The video not only features the incredible Speedtail but the McLaren Ultimate Series Vehicle Line Manager, Jonathan Beaumont, talking about the vehicle. To give you an idea of the Speedtail’s speed, it can go from a complete stop up to approximately 187 miles per hour in just 13 seconds.

What went into the design of the McLaren 765LT?

Earlier this month, we shared the very first video in the McLaren Tech Club series.

Seems a little crazy, doesn’t it? But we assure you, you’ll be safe thanks to this system. Check it out!
