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.

BRABUS 820 based on 911 Turbo S Cabriolet Outdoor 26

By Tyler Rampersaud – May 18, 2022

BRABUS Announces 2 New Porsche-Based Models

BRABUS expands its portfolio by putting its spin on two iconic cars it’s never worked with before. Most people who know about BRABUS are used to seeing the brand’s work in creating iconic, powerful, and stunning vehicles based on Mercedes-Benz models. BRABUS’s vehicles based on the Mercedes-Benz G-Class SUV and S-Class sedan for example have both become icons within the automotive world for their seemingly limitless dedication to luxury, looks, and performance. However, BRABUS no longer stops at Mercedes-Benz when it comes to its cars, as the brand has announced two new cars that BRABUS has never based anything on before: the all-electric Porsche Taycan and the legendary Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet. MUST READ: The New BRABUS 900 XLP Is A 1-Of-10, 900-HP, G 63-Based Pickup Truck The BRABUS 820, based for the first time on the Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet, is a car that gives the Porsche 911 the full BRABUS treatment, with luxury, looks, and performance that spare no expense and bring out the full potential of what a car can be. With carbon fiber aerodynamic components throughout the exterior and BRABUS Monoblock Z “Platinum Edition” wheels, the BRABUS 820 is both unmistakably a 911 and a BRABUS creation. Once you have a look at the BRABUS Masterpiece interior, you’ll see that it’s exactly that, with BRABUS’s signature quilting and embroidery everywhere you look, sat alongside more carbon fiber accents. Then comes the performance. The 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engine has its power brought up to an incredible 820 horsepower, and with 700 lb/ft of torque, the BRABUS 820 gets from 0-60 in a mere 2.5 seconds, and gets to an electronically limited top speed of 211 mph, making it not only the first 911-based BRABUS but one of the fastest BRABUS cars ever built. The Porsche Taycan Turbo S also gets a BRABUS makeover, with an aggressive body kit and 22-inch BRABUS Monoblock Z “Platinum Edition” wheels giving the car the classic BRABUS look. The BRABUS Masterpiece interior features BRABUS’s signature black and quilting, this time paired with lime green for an electrifying look that matches the car’s powertrain. BRABUS introduces a Ride Control Module in its Taycan, allowing you to modify the ride height of the BRABUS Taycan by 20 millimeters. Now that BRABUS’s lineup includes the Porsche Taycan and Porsche 911, it seems that there’s no limit to what a dream car can be. Source: Brabus

BRABUS Debuts Its 900 Crawler, Limited to Only 15-Units W...

BRABUS' new Crawler is a luxury off-road monster. While Mercedes-AMG products boast mind-blowing performance and technology, the German aftermarket specialists at BRABUS aim to elevate those aspects with upgrades that transform the look and feel. Although BRABUS is known for creating road vehicles designed with off-road capabilities, its newest release is born far beyond the beaten path. BRABUS is proud to unveil the all-new Crawler as the newest addition to its extensive fleet of performance 4x4 vehicles. The BRABUS Crawler makes its introduction as the world’s first-ever BRABUS supercar based on its own chassis, presenting an aggressive skeleton design that defines itself as an extreme adventure vehicle. The BRABUS Crawler was created specifically for off-road action and therefore is not certified for use on public roads. Production will be limited to 15 units worldwide. BRABUS The exterior features a special maximum-strength steel frame tube chassis exclusive to the BRABUS Crawler, which is painted in a vibrant red finish that highlights the craftsmanship of the German engineers. As part of the brand’s ‘Black and Bold’ design, the never before seen concept sheds traditional vehicle components like doors and windows. Instead, the construction showcases a carbon fiber roof panel and hallmark BRABUS rear wing that provides sun protection while further reinforcing the Crawler’s integrity. The exterior receives a massive weight-reduction by incorporating exposed gloss carbon fiber as the sole material for each body panel. The BRABUS Crawler achieves its name from a set of off-road 20-inch BRABUS Monoblock HD forged wheels that pair perfectly with an extremely robust suspension that ensures a ground clearance of 21-inches. With a design unlike any other luxury 4x4, the BRABUS Crawler solidifies itself as a monster of its own kind. BRABUS While the exterior highlights the adventurous capabilities of the BRABUS Crawler, the open interior layout showcases its luxury touch with a bespoke configuration that offers outstanding comfort for the driver plus up to three passengers. A set of four full-carbon racing seats feature a monochrome red Silvertex material with diamond pattern stitching, a design adopted from the BRABUS Marine range of high-performance sport boats. Along with sport and comfort amenities, the interior includes state-of-the-art GPS navigation on the passenger side for the co-pilot to designate directions during an expedition. The interior of the Crawler features red anodized trim pieces that provide striking contrast throughout the pedals, footrests, and GPS mounts. Fit with a sophisticated 2-way communication system and BRABUS carbon helmets, the BRABUS Crawler comes out of the box ready for anything in its path. BRABUS Being the main focuses for the new limited-edition 4x4, BRABUS takes performance to the next level with a BRABUS Rocket 900 4.5-Liter Twin-Turbo V8 that generates over 900-horsepower to its all-wheel-drive system. Its astonishing 3.4-second 0-60mph launch is managed by a 9-speed dual-clutch transmission, which also helps to get the Crawler to its electronically-limited top speed of 99mph. The BRABUS high-performance exhaust system with sporty matte black tailpipe trims and actively controlled valves ensures the right acoustics and looks for flying over the dunes, while further perfecting power delivery by reducing exhaust back pressure. The all-new BRABUS Crawler is set to release worldwide with a limited production of 15-chassis and a price tag of $800,000.
