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.

Limited to 15: Lamborghini’s 1,065 HP Fenomeno Breaks Cover as the Brand’s Most Powerful Roadster Ever

For nearly a year, the Lamborghini Fenomeno story has unfolded in stages, and we knew about it as early as June last year. Then came the official debut of the Fenomeno Coupé during the 2025 Monterey Car Week, where duPont REGISTRY was on site to capture Lamborghini’s latest Few-Off creation as it broke cover. Even then, it was clear the story was not finished. Now, Lamborghini has revealed the next chapter earlier than expected with the debut of the Fenomeno Roadster at Lamborghini Arena in Imola, Italy, and it comes just a month after Lamborghini recapped the lineage of its few-off Roadsters and the Raging Bull brand marking its 63rd anniversary earlier this week. Limited to just 15 examples worldwide, the open-top hybrid flagship becomes the most powerful roadster ever produced by the Italian automaker. It combines a naturally aspirated V12 engine with three electric motors for a combined 1,065 horsepower. <- Gallery -> The Fenomeno Roadster builds directly on the architecture and philosophy introduced by the Fenomeno Coupé in 2025, while re-engineering the entire upper aerodynamic structure for roofless driving at speeds exceeding 211 mph. Lamborghini says the redesign achieves the same downforce and stability targets as the hardtop, despite doing away with the fixed roof and upper intake system. “Fenomeno Roadster represents the purest expression of our brand values: visionary design, uncompromising performance, and absolute exclusivity. It is a unique interpretation of driving emotion, created for a select group of customers who seek something truly beyond convention. Each example is conceived as a collectible masterpiece, where engineering excellence meets true bespoke craftsmanship” -Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. At the heart of the Fenomeno Roadster sits Lamborghini’s 6.5-liter naturally aspirated V12, producing 835 horsepower at 9,250 rpm. Combined with three electric motors and a 7 kWh lithium-ion battery, the hybrid system launches the car from 0 to 62 mph in 2.4 seconds and to 124 mph in 6.8 seconds. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mitja Borkert (@mitjaborkert) The Roadster also reflects years of experimentation from Lamborghini Centro Stile under Design Director Mitja Borkert. Over the last several years, Borkert has publicly showcased multiple open-top design studies and dramatic speedster concepts, many of which hinted at the visual direction now seen on the Fenomeno Roadster. The ultra-flat windshield, floating engine treatment, sculpted rear humps, and sharply tapered cockpit architecture all carry themes Lamborghini enthusiasts have watched evolve through sketches, concepts, and one-off presentations. Aerodynamics became one of the defining engineering challenges. Lamborghini redesigned airflow around the windshield and cockpit while integrating a carbon fiber wing directly into the windshield structure itself. The system channels cooling air toward the V12 while minimizing turbulence at high speed. Behind the cabin, low-profile rollover structures were integrated into the bodywork to preserve airflow efficiency without compromising rigidity or safety. The chassis itself uses Lamborghini’s carbon fiber monofuselage structure derived from the Revuelto program, integrating Forged Composite components throughout the front structure, side sills, and crash elements. Lamborghini says the Roadster achieves nearly identical rigidity figures to the Coupé while adding only a few kilograms. Finished in Blu Cepheus with Rosso Mars accents inspired by Bologna’s traditional colors, the Fenomeno Roadster seen here pays tribute to Lamborghini's heritage, referencing the iconic 1968 Miura Roadster one-off we spotlighted not too long ago. Where the coupe has a production run of just 29 units with a diverse range of possibilities through Lamborghini’s Ad Personam program, only 15 units of the Fenomeno Roadster are planned; the Fenomeno Roadster immediately becomes one of the rarest and most technically advanced V12 Lamborghinis ever created.

Lamborghini Turns 63: Sant'Agata's Most Iconic Number To Take Center Stage at Imola

Earlier today, Automobili Lamborghini announced the official celebration of its 63rd anniversary. Founded on May 7, 1963, by industrialist Ferruccio Lamborghini following his successful entry into the tractor and heating equipment sectors, the company achieved its first major technical milestone within five months of incorporation, when engineers completed a 3.5-liter V12 engine on the test bench. The 350 GTV prototype debuted publicly at the Turin Motor Show in October of that year, establishing the brand's founding commitment to performance and independent design. This year also carries dual historical significance for the Raging Bull brand, as the Miura, which made its public debut at the 1966 Geneva Motor Show, celebrates its 60th anniversary in 2026. Engineered around a transverse mid-mounted V12, the Miura, designed by Marcello Gandini under Nuccio Bertone, was the first production car to bring the mid-engine supercar layout to production at scale, influencing the architecture of high-performance vehicles across the industry for the following six decades. "1963 marks the beginning of a vision that continues to guide us. Today, 63 is much more than a number: it is a symbol that expresses our essence. Celebrating it means continuing to evolve while remaining faithful to our roots. To celebrate this year through Lamborghini Arena makes this anniversary even more meaningful, because it allows us to share this moment with our community." - Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini. Now firmly under VW-Audi ownership, the number 63 functions as a recurring identifier across Lamborghini's product portfolio. The Sián FKP 37, the Italian automaker's first hybrid model, was produced in exactly 63 units. The Aventador SVJ 63 and SVJ 63 Roadster carried the designation as a limited-production marker. The SC63 hybrid prototype entered the FIA World Endurance Championship competition under that number. Collaborations with Ducati, including the Diavel 1260 Lamborghini and the Panigale V4 Lamborghini Speciale Clienti, extended the reference across complementary Italian premium brands. The Giallo Maggio finish, named for the founding month, continues to see strong uptake among clients configuring high-specification vehicles. To celebrate this momentous milestone, the community will convene at Imola this Saturday and Sunday for Lamborghini Arena, a two-day gathering of owners, dealers, and enthusiasts. <- Gallery -> View All Lamborghinis For Sale Images: Automobili Lamborghini

Lamborghini’s 2026 Start Shows Hybrid Power Still Wins Big

Numbers are in, and Automobili Lamborghini is reporting a solid start to 2026, with a promising Q1 centered on stability in what the marque calls a “complex international market”. The world feels a tad unpredictable, with market shifts and tensions rising, yet somehow the numbers coming out of Sant’Agata Bolognese tell a different story. In the first quarter of the year, Lamborghini delivered 2,620 cars, generating over $1 billion in revenue and a 23.1% operating margin. “The first quarter presents a picture of both highlights and challenges, in a year that is shaping up to be demanding yet rich in important milestones for the brand. The start of deliveries of Temerario, completing an entirely hybridized product range, the solid order portfolio across the entire lineup, and the new models arriving in the coming months all confirm that the direction we have taken is the right one. These are the foundations on which we look to the rest of 2026 with purpose, confident that the strength of the brand continues to be recognized by customers around the world.” -Stephan Winkelmann, Chairman and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini Part of that shift comes down to timing. After 2025, Lamborghini seems to have found its rhythm again, spreading deliveries more evenly and expanding its global footprint. Europe, the Middle East, and Africa still lead the way in sales and deliveries, but the Americas and Asia-Pacific markets are still adding to the momentum, keeping the brand on top across regions. Even with currency shifts and U.S. tariffs chipping away at the bottom line, it's nothing that has seriously impacted its day-to-day. If anything, it suggests Lamborghini’s current strategy is doing exactly what it’s supposed to do. Then there’s the fact that every model in the lineup now plays a key role in its hybrid-driven future. The Revuelto, the Urus SE, and the new Temerario all contribute to a fully electrified range, each offering a new level of performance for its flagship models. Buyers seem to be jumping on board, too, with long waitlists and nearly sold-out allocations for 2026. All Lamborghini Inventory
