McLaren takes final 750S orders ahead of major expansion
Production of the McLaren 750S V8-powered supercar will end next year, as the British firm prepares for its reinvented line-up of new models.
The 750S arrived in 2023 as a heavily updated successor to the transformative 720S, the Woking firm’s longtime best-seller.
It was the lightest series production McLaren yet when it was launched, weighing just 1277kg, while its Ricardo-built twin-turbocharged engine made 740bhp, giving it a power-to-weight ratio of 579bhp per tonne.
As previously reported by Autocar, McLaren is set to retire the 750S, Artura and GTS in the coming years, clearing the way for a bold new line-up – including an SUV – as part of its transformation under the ownership of the Abu Dhabi government’s investment body.
McLaren has now confirmed that final orders for the 750S are now being taken, with production due to end next year – a decade after the 720S arrived. Prices start at around £250,000.
Henrik Wilhelmsmeyer, McLaren’s commercial boss, said that the 750S “represents everything that defines a McLaren supercar”, claiming it would “leave behind an extraordinary legacy”.
The move was expected, because earlier this year McLaren launched the 788HS, the final limited-volume derivative that will be built on the platform.
McLaren’s customisation division, MSO, will produce 200 highly customised examples of that model, which is priced from £450,000.
