The McLaren 620R is a pretty hardcore machine straight out of the box. It’s based on the 570S GT4 race car, only it’s road legal and limited to just 350 units. As its name suggests, it puts down 620 PS and 620 Nm of torque courtesy of a twin turbo 3.8-liter V8. This allows it to hit 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and max out at 322 km/h.
The German tuner, Novitec has just applied the
finishing touches to its McLaren 620R project and the result is even more
power, more torque and improved performance, although not by a lot. Novitec
offers three different performance upgrades, with up to 711 PS and 710
Nm of torque. The extra power cuts the 0-62 time by 0.1 seconds to
2.8, while its top speed is now 328 km/h.
Other mods include the Novitec
high-performance exhaust system, which the tuner calls “essential for an
optimized power delivery and a sporty note,” while also weighing less than the
stock exhaust thanks to its Inconel alloy construction.
As for the custom rims, they’re staggered
with diameters of 20 and 21-inches front and rear respectively and are built by
American wheel manufacturer Vossen. Finally, there are carbon fiber components
for the bodywork, which Novitec claims “put even greater emphasis on the motor
racing lineage.”
