McLaren was reborn as a lighter and redesigned 740 hp version called the 750S. It's offered in both coupe and spider body styles, and features the familiar twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 behind the seats and a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission as a premium feature. McLaren essentially underwent mechanical engineering slimming surgery to make the 720S an even faster car. The mid-exit exhaust is lighter, lighter wheels reduce rotating mass, and even pistons from the 755-hp 765LT encourage quicker reaction time when you put your foot down. While the mid-engine 750S isn't a brand new McLaren that's breaking the internet, we think of it as an already impressive supercar that's ready for spring break after doing five-minute ab workouts all winter long.
Behind the 750S's cabin is a 740-hp twin-turbocharged V-8 engine that doesn't shy away from applying its 590 lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels. A seven-speed dual clutch handles the gear shifts. Beyond its raw power, the 750S features a set of lightweight wheels – the lightest standard ever fitted, according to McLaren – and aggressive aero parts that give it more downforce than the 720S. The latest version of McLaren's hydraulic suspension features lightweight springs and shock absorbers that promise to provide greater feedback to the driver when carving canyon roads. Borrowing the responsiveness of the million-dollar Senna, the 750S slows down with an available ceramic rotor and monoblock caliper track brake package. When it comes to navigating life's speed bumps and bumper-wearing parking lot entrances, the 750S will quickly lift its nose at the push of a button. Pirelli P Zero summer tires are standard equipment, and P Zero Corsa and track-focused P Zero Trofeo R rubber are optional. The 750S trim is staggered with 19-inch wheels at the front and 20-inch wheels at the rear.
The EPA rates the 750S for 15 mpg city and 19 mpg highway.
The 750S's interior may be the simplest part of this complex moving sculpture. Inside, Alcantara is standard; There is the option of the Performance interior, which adds nappa leather, or the TechLux package, which gives higher priority and quantity of leather in the cockpit. McLaren keeps most of the interior dark but allows customers to choose the stitching color for an additional fee. Unlike many cars today, the 750S's steering wheel is free of buttons. Mode selection and other driving controls are saved in the central instrument panel area facing the driver. The Spider has less rear cargo space than the Coupe due to space reserved for the power folding roof, but the trunk in both versions is slightly less than half the Corvette's space.
The 7.0-inch vertical infotainment screen hosts most controls such as air conditioning, Apple CarPlay and ambient lighting configurator; Android Auto is not offered. A 360-degree rearview camera is standard and has a higher resolution than that used in the 720S for greater clarity.
