The 720S has already cemented its place as one of
the fastest supercars of the planet, but that didn’t stop McLaren from
launching a new package. With the addition of the new Track Pack, the 720S sheds 24kg off its total weight thanks to new features like the super-lightweight,
10-spoke forged alloy wheels.
The pack also includes things like a gloss carbon
active rear spoiler, a sports exhaust, body-hugging carbon-fiber racing seats
in either regular or touring size, extended carbon gearshift paddles and a
black Alcantara-trimmed steering wheel.
Also new is a bespoke Track setting in the 720S’
drive modes and McLaren’s Track Telemetry system. The latter uses three cameras
that are built into the car, as well as advanced data-logging software to allow
drivers to record, monitor and improve their performance on the track.
The twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 remains untouched, still
producing 710 hp, allowing McLaren’s latest Super Series model to
accelerate from a standstill to 200 km/h in just 7.8 seconds.
The new Track Pack is a £ 28,360 option in the UK
(US$ 37k), with McLaren saying that it is cheaper
than choosing the individual components from the extras list separately. Pricing
for the 720S Track Pack begins at £ 224,700, with first deliveries expected in
2019.
