McLaren W1 First Drive: Ferocious Hypercar Transcends the Track

You know things are getting serious when McLaren rolls-out the ‘1’ suffix. The origin story is, of course, the very first road car McLaren ever built, the F1. Designed by visionary Formula 1 aerodynamicist and engineer Gordon Murray, it arrived in 1992 and rendered all other supercars obsolete. The tiny, lightweight F1 embraced carbon-fibre material technology, adopted a radical centre seat driving position with two passengers set back and either side and was powered by a 6.1-litre V12 engine from BMW that might as well have been passed down directly from the Gods. Game-changer? That doesn’t even come close to describing its impact, even if at the time sales didn’t come easy… The P1 was very different. Rather than a unique side project from the Formula 1 team, it was instead a statement piece for McLaren Automotive, a new road car division still in its infancy. It arrived in 2013 and was a wild-eyed showstopper. It traded the long-legged gait and supple suspension of the F1 for a weaponized hybrid system capable of delivering 903bhp and huge blue flames from its drainpipe exhaust. In Race mode, it lowered by 2-inches and its massive concave rear wing extended into the sky. The P1 was all about aerodynamic downforce, crazed acceleration and a snorting, angry soundtrack that mixed venomous twin-turbocharged V8 with the manic whirr of electric motors. Not so much a car as a force of nature. And now there’s this: The W1. It’s a true successor to the P1 with a similar brief and, on the face of it, it evolves rather than radically reinvents McLaren’s vision for the ultimate hypercar. This is not a criticism. How could it be when the result is this dramatic and has such staggering, other-worldly potential? The W1 has 1258bhp delivered to the rear wheels. It’s capable of 0-124 mph in 5.8-seconds, the quarter mile in 9.6-seconds at 167 mph and produces 2205lbs of downforce at 174 mph. The active aerodynamics – particularly a rear wing that extends way out beyond the rear of the car – are pure performance art and deliver massive aerodynamic efficiency. The result, aside from looking extremely cool, is that the W1 is McLaren’s fastest road car around a racetrack. Ever. Their benchmark circuit is the breath-taking Handling Track at the Nardo proving ground in southern Italy, where the W1 beats their previous benchmark, the flyweight McLaren Senna, by three seconds per lap. Or “a lifetime” as they call it in racing. Maybe two lifetimes! Core to the W1’s performance is the new ‘Aerocell’ carbon fibre tub. With integrated seats and a raised footwell to allow for inboard pushrod-operated front suspension – which in turn gives air a clean path to the huge underbody diffuser – it’s light, stiff, space efficient and has been instrumental in McLaren realising a full ground-effect concept. Just like last year’s F1 cars, which were the fastest ever made. There is also an active front wing and the aforementioned complex rear wing dubbed ‘Active Long Tail’. All of which is very admirable. But the ‘anhedral’ or gullwing doors and the fantastically shirnked-wrapped feel to the minimalist, highly-focussed interior are a pretty good side effect. The W1 feels special. Those fixed seats are perhaps a shade more upright than expected, and the driving position is less obviously racecar than, for example, the Aston Martin Valhalla or Ferrari F80. However, once you’ve adjusted the pedals (they move on a slider) and the delicate, slim-rimmed and alcantara-trimmed steering wheel, there’s an overwhelming sense of purpose. The cabin is so tightly tailored and imparts a sense of lightness and agility before you so much as start the all-new 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which makes 916bhp all on its own and revs to 9200rpm. Reach up to a roof-mounted control panel to find the starter button. Maybe this fighter plane trope is a little corny, but somehow you feel thrilled rather than manipulated. The W1 has a sense of humour as well as all that motorsport-derived sophistication. There’s a short delay, but when the engine does fire it’s instant – as the high-powered hybrid system negates the need for an old-school starter motor. A sharp flare of revs tells you that this engine is hyper-responsive and angry. On some deep level your brain and body have been sent all the signals required to prepare for something new and intense. Ahead of us, an empty Mugello racetrack, so press and hold the blue button next to the red starter to select Race mode. The centre display graphic shows the W1’s transformation in real time as it lowers by 37mm at the front and 17mm at the rear whilst simultaneously undocking all that active aero goodness. Race mode is not road legal and is geo-locked. You can show your friends and neighbours the aero dance, but it won’t allow you to select a gear to actually drive unless you’re at a circuit. Incidentally, the rocker switches either side of the display binnacle allow further options now: Toggle up the Handling control on the left for Race+ (for F1-spec super smooth tracks) or stick to Race for gnarlier ones. On the right toggle select ‘GP’ for sustained performance over a stint or ‘Sprint’ to unleash all 1258bhp for a time attack. There’s also a DRS and Boost function on the steering wheel. But I guarantee you won’t have the mental capacity to use them… Exit the pitlane, pin the throttle and W1 takes maybe a millisecond or two to gather its might (the gearing stretches to around 60mph in first, nearly 100mph in second, primarily to aid traction), but then lunges at the first turn with incredible ferocity. It instantly feels light, almost like inertia is no longer a thing. McLaren really does prize lightweight engineering, and at 3084lbs (dry) the W1 has a 278lbs advantage over the Ferrari F80. Plus, Ferrari uses figures for cars fitted with every single carbon fibre option. In reality, the gap is probably wider still. The impression of agility and stunning control continues as the track is unravelled at startling pace. The electric motor mounted to the side of the new 8-speed dual-clutch transmission is good for 342bhp and 324lb ft and it boosts any low rev lethargy the new flat-plane crank V8 might have (spoiler alert: It doesn’t appear to have any), so the W1 just feels massively, almost impossibly powerful at any revs. Even so, there’s real reward for wringing it out to 9200rpm and the power curve feels superheated but organic, too. In Race mode the steering – still hydraulically powered – has less assistance and it is noticeably heavier than other McLarens. However, that resistance is welcome as it gives you something to push against and imparts so much information about the front grip level. New Pirelli Trofeo RS tyres with a bigger front footprint than P1 or Senna really help. The front-end feels incredibly secure and the rear-axle follows with perfectly-aligned precision. The whole car feels super-stiff, completely locked into the surface and inspires confidence, but there’s an inherent agility and adjustability that means you’re quickly confident to push at its limits and really impose yourself on the chassis. It’s such a complex car but the driving experience is intuitive, and the driver feels a key contributor rather than just amazed (or terrified) observer, holding on for dear life. Every dynamic ingredient really is shockingly effective and yet has a subtlety and lightness of touch. From that delicious steering to the incredible brakes, the W1 just feels so mission-focussed, so hooked-up. Only the new 8-speed gearbox is a slightly disappointment. It’s fast and punchy, but after the scintillating energy of the Ferrari F80 ’box it feels competent rather than inspired. Other quibbles – it’s okay to quibble when the starting price is $2.1-million before tax and destination charge. Well, that new twin-turbocharged V8 sounds tightly wound and aggressive but if you have a P1 tucked in the garage you’ll miss the snorting, Darth Vader-style soundscape and all the drama that goes with it. Ferrari does this better, too. The F80 sounds deathly dull from the outside but is a riot of turbochargers, electric motors and all sorts of mechanical fury within the cockpit. Even so, the W1 is wildly entertaining on track, and the rear-drive configuration makes it more of a challenge and more satisfying than the F80 when chasing lap times or just sliding around for fun. In the Ferrari, you must second-guess what the front e-axle might do, whereas in the W1 it’s all on you. There are plenty of tools to help, including the ingenious Variable Drift Control, but somehow the W1 is more heroic. Or at least fools you into feeling more heroic – which is surely the point! On the road? Nimble, loaded with feel and sublime response. The ride is noticeably tougher than, say, a 750S but the control is ramped-up too, and with a bit more speed the whole car finds a delicious rhythm. Sport mode for the drivetrain brings some nice turbo whooshes and chirps, but the noise remains high-quality rather than extreme excitement. It is perhaps the one area the W1 feels just a little too tame. Of course, there’s nothing tame about the raw performance… which is genuinely shocking and literally hurts your neck muscles after a few hours. How McLaren has given the W1 such immense traction through just two driven wheels is beyond me. So, is it worthy of that ‘1’? I think so. Perhaps we won’t be talking about $25-million auction results for the W1 in 30 years from now, as we are for the F1. Perhaps it doesn’t quite have the amazing presence and jaw-dropping star quality of the simply gorgeous P1. But it is such an intense experience and the way it marries stunning track performance with delicate poise and entertainment on normal roads is something akin to magic. Maybe not ‘the one’ but definitely a searing, outrageous addition to McLaren’s fiercest family line. Just 399 W1’s will be built and they’re all sold. I’m not surprised at all.

Bentley Celebrates 80 Years of Crewe-Built Heritage

If there’s one thing to understand about pioneering automotive brands like Bentley Motors, it’s that heritage runs deep, and that connection to its history has long since been celebrated and preserved by a worldwide community of owners and enthusiasts. And while Bentley is now a household name in its own right, some may be surprised to learn that its history is closely intertwined with Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. Instead of existing solely as industry rivals, the two brands were connected for decades after Rolls-Royce acquired Bentley in 1931, remaining under the same ownership until their separation in 2003. Along with a group of passionate purists with a love for both marques and British craftsmanship in general, the International Club for Rolls-Royce and Bentley enthusiasts is commemorating 80 years of Bentley production at Crewe with a special celebration. GALLERY-EMBED On August 29th, members of the RRIC from around the globe will gather at the British Motor Museum, bringing Bentleys that span from the first Crewe-built Mark VI from 1946 to today's latest Continental GT. One of the weekend highlights will be a 1950 Mark VI from Bentley's Heritage Collection displayed alongside a new one-off Bentley Continental GT Azure created by Mulliner in its honor. It's an incredible way to see how far the brand has come, with eight decades separating the two cars, but the connection between them is immediately apparent. GALLERY-EMBED The bespoke Continental GT Azure takes inspiration directly from the two-tone green and black H.J. Mulliner-bodied Mark VI. Finished in Barnato Green with a contrasting Mulliner Black roof, the modern Bentley Continental GT shows off that heritage-inspired color combination in a modern day configuration, including 22-inch wheels, the carbon Styling Specification, and Azure brightware. Inside, Cricket Ball leather and Beluga give the interior a traditional Bentley feel, while dark-stained burr walnut over Grand Black piano veneer continues the connection to the Mark VI's period-correct interior. Of course, it remains a modern luxury grand tourer, complete with Bentley's Rotating Display, Comfort and Wellness seating, an air ioniser, and a Naim for Bentley audio system. Even the treadplates have been customized with outlines of both cars and an inscription commemorating 80 years of Bentley production in Crewe.The anniversary also offers a good reminder of just how significant the Mark VI was to Bentley's modern history. After the Pyms Lane facility transitioned from wartime Merlin engine production to automotive manufacturing, the Mark VI became the first Bentley to leave the Crewe production line in 1946. Its 4.25-liter six-cylinder engine, understated design, and reputation for reliability helped establish the foundation for generations of Crewe-built Bentleys that followed. By the end of production in 1951, more than 4,000 examples had been built, including just 241 H.J. Mulliner four-door, six-light saloons like the two-tone 1950 example now in Bentley's Heritage Collection. Displaying it beside the one-off Continental GT Azure makes the anniversary celebration a reminder of how far Bentley has come without losing sight of what made the brand special in the first place.

How The Upcoming Bentley Torcal Expands Bentley’s Material Palette

By Tyler Rampersaud – August 17, 2026

The New Luxury Materials In The Upcoming Bentley Torcal

Bentley is on the cusp of introducing its first-ever BEV, the Torcal. The model is simultaneously a futuristic, high-tech reimagination of what a Bentley can be, and also an ode to the ultra-luxurious craftsmanship, design, elegance, and heritage that have characterized the manufacturer for over a century. As the Torcal approaches its debut, Bentley has revealed the new materials and finishes that showcase the new electric vehicle’s innovative approach to Bentley opulence, while also expanding Bentley’s own palette. Personalization, artisan craftsmanship, and luxurious materials are central to Bentley’s brand, with beautiful leathers and woods adorning Bentley interiors across decades. However, the Torcal is incorporating new materials alongside those, evolving Bentley’s luxury design ethos. For the first time in a Bentley, the Torcal incorporates Merino wool. Partnering with Fox Brothers, a wool cloth maker that dates back to the 18th century, the Torcal uses a 100-percent Merino wool automotive fabric that combines the softness and luxury of the material with the ability to meet the demands of a luxury vehicle. The flannel is also certified by the Responsible Wool Standard, aligning with Bentley’s commitment to sustainability. <- Gallery -> In addition, the Torcal will also introduce Ombre veneers. Combining sustainably sourced walnut offcuts and recycled paper, the veneer is made by pressing together 1,000 layers to create a seamless transition in tone that complements the shapes of the interior, going from black, to dark shades, and finishing with a natural walnut color. Sunburst Aluminum by Mulliner is another material that is being introduced with the Torcal. It pays homage to the engine-turned aluminum that Bentleys were known for in the past. Along with the new materials and finishes being introduced with the Torcal EV, Bentley has also curated six colorways, specifically catered for the Merino Wool material. Embodying Bentley’s traditional sophistication, but with new techniques, the upcoming Torcal continues to combine classic luxury with bold innovation.

With their sporting aesthetic and emphasis on the sheer enjoyment of driving, the S models extend the breadth of choice offered by the definitive grand tourer. Learn More GALLERY-EMBED

Bentley Teases The “Curation Engine” Of The Upcoming Torcal BEV

By Tyler Rampersaud – August 06, 2026

Bentley Teases The Torcal’s “Curation Engine”

Bentley is gearing up to unveil its first production BEV, the Torcal, and with it, the century-old ultra-luxury manufacturer will lopen a new chatper in its storied history. While the Torcal will bring forth new technology with its all-electric powertrain, the same technology and innovation will be used to imbue the new Torcal with Bentley’s timeless elegance and signature luxury driving character, with spirit and engagement, as well as relaxing comfort. The upcoming Bentley Torcal will undoubtedly feature several opulent touches, but one delivers what Bentley says is “a new form of luxury,” the “Curation Engine.” Building on Bentley’s recent Azure models and their focus on wellness and relaxation, the Curation Engine aims to cater to occupants’ senses, adapting to changing needs and turning every journey into a revitalizing experience. Going beyond highly adjustable seats, or ambient lighting, the Curation Engine transforms the cabin experience, combining features for specific needs, with four different environments made for a range of moods and occasions. Despite utilizing cutting-edge technology, the Curation Engine’s basis in sensory neuroscience ensures that the experiences feel intuitive, with light, sound, and other sensory elements coming together to promote wellbeing inside the vehicle. <- Gallery -> The default setting is Bentley Mode, which, as Bentleys have done for decades, combines the ideas of comfort and luxury with sportiness, with a warm and inviting, yet driver-focused environment. Comfort Mode softens the lighting and calms the atmosphere, creating a serene environment that is catered towards long journeys and quiet relaxation. Sport Mode introduces an immersive soundtrack, transforming the cabin for more spirited driving. Refresh Mode, exclusive to the Torcal, uses bright lighting and increased fresh air circulation to help occupants combat fatigue on long journeys, with comfort and alertness combined in its premise. Transforming the entire interior experience with each mode, the Curation Engine is a new approach to automotive ultra-luxury that uses technology and opulence to present both grandeur and a considered relaxation to the driving experience of the new Bentley Torcal.

Bentley Celebrates 80 Years At Crewe With A One-Off Continental GTC

By Tyler Rampersaud – July 28, 2026

Bentley Honors An 80-Year Anniversary With A Bespoke Continental

Crewe, England, is known in the automotive world as the historic home of Bentley Motors, where the ultra-luxury manufacturer crafts its highly innovative creations, and also where, for decades, Bentley has shaped its identity of timeless elegance in the form of its automobiles. This year marks the 80th anniversary of Bentley’s presence in Crewe, since the first Bentley rolled off the Pyms Lane production line in 1946. To celebrate that anniversary, Bentley gathered over 100 customer cars spanning the history of the brand at its headquarters, and also unveiled a new, unique vehicle, celebrating a milestone with its signature bespoke craftsmanship and ultra-luxurious design.

Bentley Teases The Diamond Details Of The Torcal

By Tyler Rampersaud – July 27, 2026

Bentley Teases The Torcal’s Diamond Details

Throughout Bentley’s century-long history, diamond patterns and shapes have been a through line, subtly identifying the powerful, luxurious, and elegant machines from Bentley across a hundred years. The upcoming Torcal, Bentley’s first production battery-electric vehicle that is set to be unveiled later this year, is no exception, with several diamond-patterned details being a part of the latest announcement teasing new aspects of the upcoming Bentley BEV. Carrying a tradition that stretches back to the 1920s, from wire mesh grilles to diamond-quilted upholstery, headlights, and stunning interiors, the Torcal features several diamond patterns in its design. One of the most prominent is its grille, which features a floating appearance and a diamond pattern. Other features that showcase diamonds in the Bentley Torcal include diamond patterns on the digital displays of the vehicle, in the form of hand-cut crystal objects specially created for the car, created in collaboration with Cumbria Crystal. The diamond-patterned crystal objects catch the light and create a dynamic beauty throughout the Torcal’s interior. Evolving the use of diamonds in Bentley’s design language, the Torcal represents the furthest evolution of a practice that originated as a functional engineering solution, changing to an expression of beauty, luxury, and elegance throughout Bentley’s lineup. While the use of diamond patterns in Bentleys, including the Continental GT, the Bentayga, and, uniquely, the upcoming Torcal, is an eye-catching design touch, it’s also a celebration of over a hundred years of innovation, artisan craftsmanship, and engineering excellence that Bentley has represented throughout its lineage.
