675LT

Sublime handling

We have over 50 years of success on the racetrack, and those decades of expertise feed directly into all our road cars. The 675LT is no exception. Inspired by the 1997 McLaren F1 GTR ‘Longtail’, it deploys motorsport-developed technology to create the most extreme driving experience of any McLaren series-production supercar

The 675LT has been extensively optimised within the in-house wind tunnel at the McLaren Technology Centre, an astonishingly potent race-proven engine produces 675PS (666bhp) and 700Nm (516lb ft), and the suspension system has been engineered for even sharper responses.

 

The process might be grounded in hard data, but the result is more engagement, more raw emotion and more mind-blowing performance. The McLaren 675LT propels driving enjoyment to an entirely new dimension.

POWER, A BEAUTIFUL THING

A twin-turbocharged V8 engine, super-fast dual-clutch gearbox, lightweight titanium exhaust…

...the beating heart for the 675LT gets the adrenaline pumping.

 

Our twin-turbocharged V8 engine has always been the most potent in its class. Now our engineers have unleashed an additional 25PS (25bhp) and 22Nm (16lb ft) for a thrilling 675PS (666bhp) and 700Nm (516lb ft), and a class-leading 549PS (541bhp) per tonne.

 

Extraordinary precision defines the 675LT as much as extraordinary performance. Lightweight connecting rods, bespoke camshafts and a new electronic recirculation valve, all maximise engine response, while 300 percent stiffer engine mounts optimise the connection between driver and road surface.

 

New machined-from-solid turbocharger compressor wheels maximise airflow to the combustion chambers, and an optimised fuel pump increases fuel flow. The combined result is breathtaking performance.

SUPER-FAST GEARBOX

Our seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox already provides near-instantaneous shifts to the other models in the McLaren Super Series, but the 675LT’s revised software strategy slashes response times to make gear changes twice as fast. Briefly cutting the ignition between changes creates the fastest possible shift, and an incredibly intense sound. The result is not only increased performance but a heightened sense of connection for the driver.

TITANIUM EXHAUST

A new lightweight titanium exhaust system instantly differentiates the 675LT, thanks to its distinctive twin exhaust outlets and uniquely rich, aggressive sound, particularly under full acceleration. But the lightweight exhaust system also plays a crucial role in unlocking the 675LT’s additional performance. A specially designed ‘crossover’ system – where the exhaust section that exits on the V8 engine’s left bank actually exits on the right of the car, and vice versa – provides the exact length of titanium tubing required for ultimate performance.

Sublime handling

Whether you’re chasing crucial tenths on the racetrack or enjoying a favourite road, the chassis of the McLaren 675LT provides the ultimate feedback.

We raised the bar for driver involvement with the McLaren P1™ chassis setup. The 675LT benefits from many of those learnings, including the adoption of some of its lightweight suspension hardware. The steering rack is 10 percent faster than that found in the rest of the Super Series – faster still than the McLaren P1™ – and spring rates are significantly increased, both measures increasing precision and agility. The result is not only faster lap times but an unrivalled feeling of connection between man and machine.

CARBON FIBRE BRAKES

The 675LT is specified with carbon fibre brake discs, greatly increasing stopping power and longevity compared with conventional brake systems. Six-piston calipers grip 394mm discs at the front, with four-piston calipers and 380mm discs at the rear. Stopping distances are further reduced with the ‘Longtail’ Airbrake, which deploys under heavy braking and features a unique control strategy to match the extreme capabilities of the 675LT.

PIRELLI P-ZERO™ INSPIRED TROFEO R TYRES

Road-legal, but with an extreme track focus, Pirelli P-ZERO™ Trofeo R tyres are fitted to the 675LT as standard equipment for peerless handling. The highly specialised tread pattern creates six percent more grip in normal conditions, and a stiffer structure significantly increases steering response and supports the 675LT’s sharper handling and faster reactions. Road-biased Pirelli P-ZERO™ tyres are available as a no-cost option.

LIGHTWEIGHT ALLOY WHEELS

Weighing 800g less than even the alloy wheels on the McLaren P1™, the Ultra Lightweight forged alloy wheels have been specially commissioned for the McLaren 675LT. Supplied in a 19-inch front and 20-inch rear fitment, the distinctive 10-spoke design is available as standard. A striking Super Lightweight five-spoke design can be ordered for additional impact. In both styles, these designs significantly reduce unsprung weight to optimise driver feedback.

McLAREN P1™ INSPIRED SUSPENSION

The 675LT has a suspension system that has been radically engineered for extra driver engagement. With significant learnings taken from the McLaren P1™, the 675LT boasts increased agility and a decrease in mass by 13.7kg. The front track is 20 percent wider than that of the other Super Series range, spring rates increase 27 percent at the front, 63 percent at the rear, and an increased rake contributes to 40 percent more downforce. Naturally, the three adjustable suspension settings are uniquely calibrated for the hardcore focus of the 675LT

CARBON AT THE CORE

We pioneered the use of carbon fibre in Formula 1™.
Today, the technology is key to unlocking the mind-blowing potential of the McLaren 675LT.

 

A carbon fibre MonoCell sits at the core of the McLaren 675LT, as it does in all models in the Super Series. Light, strong and incredibly stiff, the MonoCell weighs just 75kg and ensures occupants are safer in the event of an accident. The MonoCell also creates the most stable platform possible on which to build the suspension system for a high-performance supercar. Handling stability, steering precision and torsional rigidity all benefit for a more connected driving experience.

CARBON FIRBRE BODYWORK

With targets to increase downforce by 40 percent and honour the design of the 1997 McLaren F1 GTR ‘Longtail’, numerous body components have been produced in carbon fibre. This saves weight, creates a distinctive look and provides sufficient strength to withstand additional aerodynamic loads. New carbon fibre components include the front bumper, 80 percent larger front splitter, front undertray, side skirts, rear fenders, rear deck, ‘Longtail’ Airbrake, rear bumper and rear diffuser.

CARBON FIBRE ENGINE BAY

On display beneath the new lightweight polycarbonate engine cover, the M838TL V8 engine now features lightweight carbon fibre components as part of the factory specification. The carbon fibre induction plenum features a satin-lacquered finish and bespoke 675LT branding, while satin-lacquered carbon fibre engine bay panels underline the race-bred theme. Inspired by the McLaren P1™, bespoke hard-anodised, vapour-honed aluminium oil and coolant filler caps provide a striking contrast.
