The McLaren Speedtail Attribute Prototype “Albert”
The first hybrid powertrain prototype of McLaren Automotive’s new Ultimate Series flagship, the McLaren Speedtail, officially embarks this week on a year-long test regime that will underpin the development of the first McLaren Hyper-GT. The punishing test program in the run-up to production commencing at the end of 2019 will see Speedtail prototypes running in Europe, North America and Africa, initially at automotive test facilities but later with traffic on normal roads.
Deployment of the first Speedtail attribute prototype marks an exciting new stage in the development of the fastest, most aerodynamic and most luxurious McLaren ever made. The prototype is officially designated MVY02 but echoing the naming of development test mules of its legendary forebear, the 1992 McLaren F1, it has been christened, ‘Albert’. This is a respectful reflection not only on the name of the McLaren F1 mule ‘Albert’ but also the Albert Drive premises in which the F1 was designed.
Distinguished by a unique testing livery, ‘Albert’ has a production-specification chassis and petrol-electric hybrid drivetrain, as well as the unique three-seat cockpit with central driving position. As the development and validation program progresses every aspect of the Speedtail’s performance will be honed as the full 1,050PS available to Speedtail drivers to propel the prototype to 403km/h (250mph) is used – including in high-speed trials with McLaren Automotive Chief Test Driver and former IndyCar champion Kenny Bräck at the wheel.
“The start of real-world testing represents a major step in the development of the McLaren Speedtail. As the first fully representative prototype, ‘Albert’ will build on the invaluable work still being put in by earlier development cars, allowing us to sign-off vehicle attributes including chassis dynamics; brake performance; damper tuning; tyres; NVH and aspects of ergonomics and comfort. With a huge amount achieved already, the McLaren Speedtail is well on the way to fulfilling its destiny as the greatest McLaren road car ever.”
Ben Gulliver, Head of Vehicle Development, McLaren Automotive
The central driving position and three-seat layout of the Speedtail was pioneered by the iconic McLaren F1 in 1992. This configuration is uniquely McLaren, remaining exclusive among production cars until McLaren Automotive confirmed in November 2016 that it would be reprised for the next Ultimate Series model, then codenamed BP23.
The centre-seat layout of the Speedtail was first publicly demonstrated in a ‘proof of concept’ model that was simply a McLaren 720S reconfigured with a single, centrally-mounted driving seat. Four further mules followed and these will continue to be used around the world for performance and durability testing, alongside the prototype vehicles.
Despite its test livery and the bodywork from the A-pillars forward, ‘Albert’ is fundamentally a Speedtail, with shape-representative body panels and dihedral doors around the unique carbon fiber McLaren Monocage core structure. The production-level specification allows Speedtail attributes to be proven in real-world conditions early in the development process, including for example ingress and egress to the three-seat cockpit.
Production of the £1.75 million (plus local taxes) McLaren Speedtail is due to commence at the end of 2019, with first deliveries in early 2020. As with the McLaren F1, 106 cars will be available and all have already now been allocated to owners.

SennaTail 🇬🇧 ______________________________________ Here’s a render of the speedtail I made.. kind of interesting , i call it the SennaTail 😂 It has the Senna wing, wheels from the P1 LM, and the glass door from the Senna! I also gave it this unique color scheme that resembles an old F1 GTR LongTail! 🔥The speedtail will have a 250MPH topspeed and can do 0-186MPH in 12.8sec (which is insane) It makes 1,036HP from a petrol engine and hybrid powertrain to the rear wheels! The carbon monocoque weighs just 1,430kg 🔥 The actual Speedtail has A unique Velocity mode will help release more electric power and will lower the ride height to 35mm to aid in top speed runs. The super streamlined teardrop body, the speedtail is 202in long! Every body pane is carbon as well as the massive one piece clam shell! The read features INSANe active air fouls made out of flexible carbon fiber that blend into the body. The central driving position aids in the teardrop shape and the interior features 3 screens, an overhead control panel and curved glass! Each speedtail is produced by MSO so each will be custom to its owner! The carbon used a titanium weave like in Pagani’s to give a chrome shimmer to the paint. It will hit production late next year and will be delivered in 2020! The speedtail will be the speedtail, no GTR, no LT, no racing version, just speedtail! ________________________________________ EXTRA: Im in love 😍 ________________________________________ - - #McLaren #BP23 #V8 #Speedtail #F1 #UK #british #HyperGT #Senna #720s #GTR #carbon ||#powerful #performance #turbocharged #supercharged #advanced #SupercarsRevamped #Supercar #HyperCar #ItsWhiteNoise #CarLifeStyle #MadWhips #CupGang #Carstagram #BlackList #AmazingCars247 An #allcarnews post https://www.instagram.com/p/BpdLA5CH4-M/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=nm1dy2vzpwfr

3-Seat McLaren Hyper GT Will Eclipse the F1′s Top Speed
McLaren Automotive has confirmed that its forthcoming new ‘Hyper-GT ‘, codenamed BP23, will achieve the highest top speed of any McLaren yet exceeding the 243mph peak speed of the legendary McLaren F1 road car.
The next addition to the McLaren Ultimate Series will be both the fastest-ever and the most luxurious McLaren. Featuring a three-seat cockpit design with a central driving position – the same layout as the F1 – and a petrol-electric hybrid powertrain, BP23 will deliver the unparalleled blend of extreme performance and sporting luxury that befits its status as the ultimate road-going McLaren.
The entire BP23 production of 106 examples was allocated before the car was officially announced in November 2016. Production is due to begin at the end of next year, with every BP23 personalized to each owner’s taste by McLaren Special Operations (MSO), the division of McLaren Automotive responsible for bespoke customer commissions.
BP23 will carry an as-yet unannounced name, rather than the alphanumerical nomenclatures used by the McLaren Sports Series and Super Series; this name, and the maximum possible speed, will be disclosed nearer to the car’s reveal.
McLaren Vision GT 😱 ______________________________________ McLaren finally unveiled their Vision GT model and it may foreshadow the upcoming BP23 Hyper GT!! 🔥This Vision GT packs a 4.0L TT V8 to the rear and 2 electric motors upfront making near 1,134HP and 941lb-ft of torque !
