Wild Exposed Carbon Fibre McLaren 720S Makes Use Of 3D-Printed Parts

1016 Industries is one of the tuning companies pushing hard to implement 3D printing as a scalable method for creating aftermarket offerings. The company’s latest step forward is this modified McLaren 720s that combines an exposed carbon fibre body with a variety of 3D-printed components.

The teal accents have been used to break up the exposed carbon fibre and actually accentuate the lines of the body. The 3D-printed components include the inner bumper structures, aerodynamic ducting, and linkages in the wing.

These updates result in the 720S shedding a substantial 122 kg which is around 9% of the stock supercar weight.

McLaren celebrates new Gulf partnership with bespoke 720S

Limited-edition, hand-painted design is said to show capabilities of firm’s personalisation options

McLaren’s in-house personalisation arm has designed a Gulf-inspired 720S to mark the oil firm’s return as a strategic partner for Woking’s Formula 1 team.

McLaren and Gulf rekindled their partnership in July 2020. McLaren said the livery acts as a tribute to the Gulf design while emphasising the racing connection between the two brands that started with founder Bruce McLaren.

The partnership will also be recognised with the use of a one-off race livery for the Monaco Grand Prix on 23 May. The livery will feature on both MCL35M cars, the suits of Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo and the wider race team kit.

McLaren Special Operations (MSO) designed the 720S with a hand-painted exterior in traditional blue-and-orange Gulf livery. The design took 20 days to hand paint, with other nods to traditional Gulf colours, including orange brake calipers.

Blue and orange stitching features inside the car, with Gulf logos embroidered on the headrests and painted on the sills. The steering wheel also features an orange centre band to match the exterior stripe, and its carbonfibre centre section is painted a solid dark blue.

DarwinPRO Can Turn Your McLaren 720S Into A Senna GTR

The McLaren 720S is by no means lacking in the performance department but to a few individuals out there, it may be lacking the presence and aerodynamics department.

DarwinPRO Aerodynamics have stepped in to offer something quite extreme for the Woking supercar.

Just 75 units of the McLaren Senna GTR were produced worldwide and it stunned the world with its dramatic aerodynamics and of course its radical price tag.

Zacoe Tease Radical Mclaren 720S Bodykit

A relatively unknown tuning company goes by the name of Zacoe and if this kit hits production which apparently it will, they will be thrust into the spotlight.

A series of detailed renderings show off the insanely radical bodykit the tuner has designed for the McLaren 720S.

As you can see, it is given a complete overhaul which includes an all-new bumper and splitter as well as some flared wheel arches complete with louvres. There is also a new hood but one of the more dramatic features has to be the pronounced fins behind the front wheels as well as the flared arches at the rear.

McLaren 765LT Spider

Renowned worldwide for the exclusive, luxury, high-performance supercars on which it has built its reputation over the past decade, McLaren Automotive revealed another landmark model: the 765LT Spider.

Complementing the 765LT 'Longtail' coupe unveiled last year - all of which are sold - the new Spider is McLaren's most powerful-ever convertible supercar and brings highest-ever levels of driver engagement to the McLaren LT experience. Engineered in addition with the other core attributes intrinsic to any McLaren Longtail - minimised weight, track-focused dynamics and optimised aerodynamics - the McLaren 765LT Spider has all of the class-leading abilities of the coupe and also meets the LT demand for exclusivity: just 765 cars will be available globally for customer order.

Carrying over the coupe's dynamic and aerodynamic DNA with no structural compromise and only a minimal 49kg weight increase - primarily from the retractable hard top and accompanying operating mechanism - the 765LT Spider weighs in at just 1,388kg (DIN weight), which is 80kg lighter than a 720S Spider and circa 100kg lighter than its closest comparable competitor.

The electrically operated, one-piece carbon fibre Retractable Hard Top (RHT) enables open-top motoring in just 11 seconds and operates at speeds of up to 50km/h, bringing the dramatic soundtrack of the quad-exit titanium exhaust system into the cabin to take driver engagement into another dimension.

"As we continue to build the LT sub-brand with the introduction of the new 765LT Spider, it's clear that our customers are increasingly attracted to the Longtail supercar proposition of exhilarating, extreme performance and limited availability. With all 765 examples of the 765LT coupe sold, it's no surprise that as we publicly announce our new LT Spider, production capacity for 2021 is already filled." Mike Flewitt, Chief Executive Officer, McLaren Automotive

New McLaren 765LT Spider tops Super Series range

Hard-hitting 754bhp convertible will be sold in limited numbers for £310,500

McLaren has revealed the much-anticipated 765LT Spider, which the firm claim is both the fastest convertible it has ever produced and will offer the ‘highest-ever levels of driver engagement’ for a model in its line-up of track-focused ‘Longtail’ models.

The new drop-top is based on the Coupe version of the Woking firm’s flagship Super Series model, and shares that car’s 754bhp and 590lb ft tune of McLaren’s 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, driven through a seven-speed sequential gearbox. As with the sold-out Coupe, the 765LT Spider will be limited to 765 units, with prices starting from £310,500.

The 765LT Spider is a lighter, sharper and more focused version of the convertible version of the 720S. Due to its retractable hard top – which can be raised or lowered in 11 seconds at speeds of up to 31mph – makes it 49kg heavier than the Coupe, but at 1388kg it is still 80kg lighter than the 720S Spider. As with all McLaren LT models, the new car makes extensive use of carbonfibre to reduce weight where possible.

The firm claims the 765LT Spider is capable of 0-62mph in 2.8 seconds and 0-124mph in 7.2 seconds, which both match the coupe version.

McLaren 765LT Spider breaks cover as the brand’s most powerful convertible

It was only a matter of time until the McLaren 765LT Spider made its appearance as an open-top alternative to the Coupe that was revealed last year. With a retractable roof, this new variant enters the British supercar’s legacy as its most powerful convertible car in its history.

Boasting the twin-turbocharged 4,0-litre V8 petrol engine, the McLaren 765LT Spider provides the rear wheels with a power output of 563 kW and 800 N.m of torque via an optimised seven-speed dual-clutch transmission with Formula One-grade materials.

With a number of weight saving materials, the McLaren 765LT Spider boasts a claimed kerb mass of 1 388 kg, making it 49 kg heavier than the hardtop alternative and 80 kg lighter than the 720S Spider on which it is based. With this, the brand claims it’ll sprint from 0-100 km/h in 2,8 seconds, 0-200 km/h in 7,2 seconds and reach a top speed of 330 km/h.

The electrically operated retractable hard top roof is made from a single piece of carbon fibre and can be lowered or raised in 11 seconds at speeds of up to 50 km/h.

Gorgeous McLaren 765LT Spider Unleashed

The new McLaren 765LT Spider combines powerful performance with drop-top ability, making it perhaps one of the most tantalising convertible offerings currently on the market.

It’s been a little over a year since the Woking-based firm revealed its leaner and meaner 765LT (LongTail) Coupe. Now, the McLaren 765LT Spider has been unleashed!

It’s powered by the same twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 that’s found in the coupe with immense outputs of 563 kW and 800 Nm of torque. As you can imagine, those numbers produce mega performance and McLaren claims no less than 2.8 seconds to go from zero to 100 kph and just 7.2 seconds to reach 200kph.

The McLaren 765LT Spider is equipped with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission that’s said to deliver 15% faster in-gear acceleration than the already impressive 720S.

Aussies! You can now buy a Daniel Ricciardo edition McLaren 720S

Danny Ric gets a Papaya Orange special edition to celebrate his win at Monza

Good news for any Daniel Ricciardo fans in his home country that had their hearts set on a McLaren 720S – you can now buy a special Honey Badger edition (not its official name, sadly) courtesy of MSO.

Yep, McLaren’s road-going Special Ops division has decided to celebrate Danny Ric’s recent win at Monza with a limited-edition 720S. Imagine if McLaren/Merc had done that with Lewis Hamilton’s victories – there wouldn’t be any other cars on the road.

Anyway, just three Daniel Ricciardo editions will be built, each featuring the same Papaya Orange and Burton Blue paint as this season’s MCL35M F1 car. Looks rather good, no?

There are also carbon-fibre sills adorned with Ricciardo’s signature, as well as a couple of Australian flags and his race number on the doors.
