The company «McLaren» presented the final era supercar with eight cylinders
McLaren, Britain's most shameful car-shipped the new 788HS supercar, the final evolution of one of its most successful models, the 750S, to the public. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
The car not only marks the end of the era of the brand's traditional eight-cylinder supercars but also signals McLaren's transition to a new strategic phase. The 788HS model, specially developed by McLaren Special Operations, is the latest representative of the series that began in 2017 with the 720S and continued with the 765LT and 750S.
The special designation in the name indicates that this car is tailored for road use. The new model is a perfect technical embodiment of all the positive aspects of its predecessors.
From a technical standpoint, the foundation of the new 788HS model is a 4.0-liter, twin-turbocharged V8 engine. Engineers increased the engine's power to 777 horsepower by installing new pistons and a special four-outlet exhaust system.
This figure exceeds even that of the previous record-holder, the 765LT. The car's acceleration dynamics are breathtaking: it reaches 100 km/h from a standstill in just 2.8 seconds.
It attains 200 km/h in 7 seconds. The supercar's top speed is 330 km/h.
McLaren specialists paid special attention to reducing the vehicle's weight. Thanks to new carbon fiber body components, the weight of the 788HS model has been reduced to 1,265 kilograms.
For comparison, the standard 750S model is 12 kilograms heavier. This significantly improves the power-to-weight ratio per tonne.
Moreover, the car's aerodynamic system has been completely redesigned. The new exterior not only reflects a modern style but also enhances the vehicle's road grip at high speeds.
The unveiling of this model marks the beginning of a new era for McLaren. The British brand is expected to announce its future strategic plans in the coming months, including steps toward electrifying its vehicles.
For now, however, the 788HS stands as the brightest and final point in McLaren's history of pure gasoline-powered supercars.
