McLaren launches the 750S supercar in India, a powerful upgrade from the 720S, priced at Rs. 5.91 crore.
Less than 20 units of the 750S have been allocated for India, with some already spoken for.
The 750S sports a revised M840T engine, now producing 750hp and 800Nm, with no electrical assist.
With weight loss and power boost, the 750S accelerates 10% faster than the 720S, hitting 100kph in just 2.8 seconds.
The 750S is 30kg lighter than the 720S, leading to a segment-leading power-to-weight ratio of 587hp per tonne.
The 750S features extensive chassis revisions, including a 6mm increase in front track and a faster steering rack.
The 750S boasts subtle visual revisions, including a larger active rear wing and slim new LED headlights.
The overhauled cockpit promotes driver-road connection, with an instrument display that moves with the steering column.
The 750S features a suspension lift function, crucial for Indian roads, deployable in just 4 seconds.
The infotainment screen is more responsive, the in-car microphone better recognises speech commands, and the park-assist camera gives a clearer view.
Apple CarPlay and a wireless charger are now standard features in the 750S.
