About the McLaren Speedtail
The Speedtail is the spiritual successor to the McLaren F1, featuring the same iconic three-seat central driving position and a production run limited to 106 units. Designed as a 'Hyper-GT', it prioritises aerodynamic efficiency and high-speed stability over track-focused downforce, resulting in a dramatic teardrop silhouette. Its hybrid powertrain combines a 4.0-litre V8 with a high-performance electric motor to reach a top speed of 250 mph. Notable innovations include flexible carbon-fibre active ailerons and retractable digital cameras in place of traditional wing mirrors.

McLaren Speedtail fun facts
- The Speedtail features flexible carbon-fibre 'ailerons' that physically bend to adjust aerodynamics, eliminating the need for traditional hinges or shutlines.
- In 'Velocity Mode', the car lowers itself by 35mm and retracts its digital side-view cameras to achieve its 403 km/h top speed.
- Because it lacks side-mounted airbags and traditional mirrors, the Speedtail is not fully street-legal in the US and must be imported under 'Show or Display' exemptions.
