Haha! Best me to it - first thing I thought of at the 2 minute 50s mark....

The 296 is not really the comp here as its more expensive and faster. Its actually the MC20. Both have the same price, speed, quickness, interior simplicity, etc. (other competitors are the R8, turbo s, RWD huracan, NSX). And I'd take the MC20 just based on looks alone over the Artura and the fact that it sounds better with the Maserati's cool blow off sounds (both engines sound pretty dull otherwise).

@Taylor___

Quite right. MC20 is prettier.... Oh just read on, you said that too. I am a little bored of Mclaren though, it's the same design over and over again. If you can afford this or a MC20 then you could probably afford a 296 lol... if I had the choice, it would be a MC20 or 296. Actually I've just googled the price, are you sure? It looks like the 296 is only a bit more expensive. No sorry mate, the Ferrari is nearly 100K more and the two cars would reach 1000m's neck and neck as the Ferrari is heavier

Looks like a genuinely exciting supercar

Frankly, the looks are great as always for the regular roadgoing models from Woking, so I wouldn't fault them at that... Heck I'd applaud them for the understated elegance that does not age bad... Since this is the sport series model, I'd say it needs to fare well against said Ferrari only partially, rather its main rival would be 911 Turbo S - question is can the English 2WD hybrid compete with Stuttgart's finest? On paper, the two share cylinder count, are close in engine capacity, even total motor output looks similar, but the tried and tested 911 seem to best this thing on practicality and possibly outright performance. As such I'm afraid the answer might currently be no... Another conteneder this thing needs to fare well against is the already few years old "new" NSX - also a 6-cylinder hybrid with performance and efficiency and road-going credentials in a sports car suit... Mayhaps once they inevitably release an "S" higher power veriant the leash placed on this model might be let off a bit... Or once they transplant the idea into the super series model, when it's going to be more in line with the Ferrari counterparts... Still, 911s soon will also inevitably be hybridised or EV-olved in future and they might bring to the table even more outright performance and clever packaging under same hood to again push the results in Stuttgart's favor... I'm guessing that is why this model came to be just because of this - Macca has not managed to become the first in the super series target demography market to offer the hybridised super car, so they lost the "first to offer" PR campaign creds, the ultra series market is already brimming with various hybrids and EVs they'd have to fare against with their new product, it simply was safer to reveal new platform for the lower sports series and test the ground/Macca fans reactions, as this market segment does not have many high performance hybrid supercar-looking vehicles - there's basically NSX and the rest is mostly ICE only... Less competition equals possible better sals and testing ground for the "new" building blocks solution. Regardless, it's pity they've not included regenerative braking, whether on track or on road, you have to slam and touch the stoppers quite often and a lot of energy oculd have been recuperated for the electric motors to utilise once the need for forward thrust arises...

Although tried and true, the Porsche 911 are a tired and dated looking fugly VW beetles that have not seen any real sense of aesthetically pleasing improvements in the last 2 decades. Most look at a GT2RS, GT3RS or a Carerra and wouldn't even know that there was a $300K price difference between models. In traffic and parked, they're uninspiring and quite boring to see and far too common in more affluent suburbs of major cities. My 2018 NSX is a much better car. Hell, even my Huracan Performante is a nicer looking car and is faster at times depending on the canyons or track it's being ran at.

I just ordered mine. Poster should be coming soon.

I think the 296GTB is the better package all around.. Far more Power, a nicer looking interior, the infamous dual clutch with the great Ferrari-typical shift sounds (which I love) and also the retro design rear fenders loom gorgeous!

The point about not making too much "noise" is a bit silly! Mclarens already sound muted already, and with this powertrain its even (worse) more silenced.

So mclaren have finally taken some F1 tech and applied to a road car. Not only have they taken the basic priniples of the current F1 engine (v6 turbo hybrid with the turbos in the V) they have evidently also transferred their gearbox over. When was the last time you saw an f1 driver be able to find reverse?

I dont understand the lack of regen braking. My understanding is that it recovers lots of power in normal day to day driving (my friends Kia EV shows often 50 to 60% from regen over a day to day run) and it does not weigh that much extra as it uses the EV Drive to recover the power. ???? The small battery in this is going to run out fast (or suck out the energy from the motor to charge the battery). I wonder how many laps on the track before this just losses 30% of its power carrying a brick (dead battery) around. ???

Really great effort, just hope it is reliable and is a big stepping stone towards McLaren Auto back to its exciting halo times of the P1 and 675LT.
