With 60 years of heritage, McLaren has earned a celebrated legacy in the racing world, especially as one of the few manufacturers with the coveted motorsport “Triple Crown” to its name. Whether it’s Formula 1 or endurance racing, McLaren is one of the most respected names, and the historic Can-Am series was also a stage for McLaren’s success.
One of McLaren’s most captivating modern hypercars, the Elva, is inspired heavily by McLaren’s extensive racing legacy with its lightweight construction and open barchetta body style, and a special, exclusive variant of the Elva was created to honor McLaren’s Can-Am legacy.
