McLaren 750S V8: Lighter, More Powerful, and Sharper Than Ever

By indigo auto group
June 3, 2025

The 2026 McLaren 750S is McLaren’s lightest and most powerful series-production car yet, featuring a V8 engine and rear-wheel drive.

Born from the carbon-fiber DNA of the legendary F1, sharpened by 12C innovation, and perfected through 720S dominance, the 2026 McLaren 750S unleashes 740 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque from its twin-turbo V8 into an ultra-light 2,815-pound (1,277 kg) form. With 30% of its components newly developed—including a faster steering rack, updated Proactive Chassis Control, and an extended, lighter active rear wing that boosts downforce without increasing drag—the 750S is built for pure, uncompromised performance.

Shorter gearing vaults you to 62 mph in 2.8 seconds, while an artful cockpit-mounted mode toggle locks in your favorite drive profile with race-bred precision. Celebrated as McLaren’s pure-combustion flagship, 750S offers clients a rare opportunity to secure the pinnacle of analog-feeling performance.

What's new for the McLaren 750S?

Carbon fiber defines the McLaren 750S, with the Carbon Fibre Pack enveloping driver-focused tech in a motorsport-inspired finish. Exposed-weave rear bumper ducts and color-accented mirror caps add a sharper edge to its profile. A nod to McLaren's racing legacy, a laser-etched titanium Track Record Plaque echoes the F1’s trophy-laden past, serving as a constant reminder of Woking’s championship heritage. Fresh paint hues and an Azura Blue brake-caliper finish unlock deeper personal expression, and a 30 kg ≈ 66 lb weight reduction pairs with a richer, more visceral exhaust note to heighten every throttle surge. Circuit-bound owners can now specify the first Track Brake Upgrade System ever offered on a series-production McLaren supercar, combining endurance-grade cooling with carbon-ceramic hardware for relentless, confidence-building stopping power.

750S Engine Features and Performance

Beneath its carbon-sculpted body, the McLaren 750S houses a 4.0-litre twin-electronically actuated twin-scroll turbo V8, producing 740 hp and paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. It launches from 0–62 mph in just 2.8 seconds and hits 124 mph in 7.2. A stainless-steel, single-exit sports exhaust with triple-throttled ISG amplifies the sonic thrill, while aerodynamic mastery supports a 206 mph top speed. Proactive Chassis Control III introduces a wider track, custom-tuned dampers and springs, and a faster steering ratio—turning every input into razor-sharp feedback across a full suite of track-focused tires. The 750S is a road-legal supercar engineered for purists who demand an unfiltered bond between driver, machine, and track.

750s Coupé vs Spider

The 750S Spider rockets to 124 mph in just 7.3 seconds. | McLaren

The fixed-roof 750S Coupé weighs in at just 2,815 lb (dry), delivering an impressive 526 hp per U.S. ton. The Spider variant, with its retractable hardtop, adds only 108 lb for a total of 2,923 lb and a power-to-weight ratio of approximately 506 hp per ton. Both variants sprint from 0–62 mph in 2.8 seconds, but the added weight of the Spider reveals itself only at higher speeds: the Coupé hits 124 mph in 7.2 seconds, while the Spider follows just behind at 7.3. Each reaches a top speed of 206 mph. Opt for the Coupé if you seek the lightest, most rigid connection to the chassis; choose the Spider for open-air exhilaration and even more immersive V8 acoustics—with no compromise to McLaren’s signature precision.
