FORM FOLLOWS
DOWNFORCE
Sculpted exclusively by airflow in the McLaren Technology Centre wind tunnel. Every autoclaved carbon aperture, front splitter vane, and dihedral gullwing channel exists to pin 800.4 kg of vertical load onto a 1,198 kg dry carbon chassis.
LIVE CFD CORRELATION TUNNEL
800.4 KG AT 250 KM/H
Bernoulli streamlines map stagnation pressure across the front splitter, accelerate over the roof snorkel, and extract vortex suction under the 6,500 cm² swan-neck dual wing.
ANATOMICAL CAD DECONSTRUCTION
MONOCAGE III ARCHITECTURE
The 78.2 kg Monocage III carbon safety cell achieves 39,000 Nm/deg torsional rigidity. Autoclaved outer carbon clamshells weigh under 60 kg combined, exposing center-lock hubs and RCC II pushrod axles.
POWERTRAIN & THERMAL DISSIPATION
M840TR V8 & 900°C CCM-R
Dry-sump 3,994 cc flat-plane twin-scroll V8 delivering 800 PS (588 kW) and 800 Nm. Sintered 390 mm Brembo CCM-R discs sustain 900°C incandescent thermal load.
RACE MODE · RCC II HYDRAULIC KINEMATICS
340 KM/H APEX PURSUIT
Race Mode drops ride height by 39 mm front and 30 mm rear. Interconnected RaceActive Chassis Control II sustains 2.84 G lateral grip while hauling down from 200–0 km/h in 100.0 m.
