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.

Mercedes Benz G-Class Encased in 44 Tons of Amber

Think about the most breathtaking display you have ever seen an at an auto show, and get ready to be amazed. The Detroit auto show is almost upon us, which means manufacturers from around the world will be fighting your attention.Everyone knows the new G-Wagen will be a star of the show, so expect to see a few examples of its predecessors. It has been in production since 1979, known as the Geländewagen. It means cross-country wagon in English since it has 3 locking differentials with enough gear reduction to pull a building up a hill.Michael Fux AMG Black Series Collection Heading To AuctionWhen an automaker chooses to display historical versions, you can bet they have tight security around them. Instead of a guard or a velvet rope, Mercedes-Benz chose another method to protect one of the first examples. The 1979 G Wagon heading to Detroit has been permanently cast into 44 tons of amber. Instead of using natural resources, a synthetic resin was poured around the vehicle and allowed to harden. This monolith measures 18' long by 10' high, and it took 90 days to cool.The logistics of transporting something like this make us wonder what will happen to it after the show. Perhaps the fossilized 4x4 will be found in the distant future, and its DNA will be used to clone a new generation of rugged luxury SUVs.

2018 Mercedes SL65 Specs, Price, Photos & Review

Mercedes-AMG is known for the perfect balance of power and luxury, and the 2018 Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG specs are the epitome of the combination. From styling to performance and safety to features, this coupe has it all. The monstrous 6.0-liter AMG V12 Biturbo engine pumps out 621 horsepower with 738 lb-ft of torque as a compliment. Streaming in from 0-60 in just 3.9 seconds, the AMG SL65 Roadster hits a top speed of 186 mph in swift time. Performance is an AMG staple, but it’s the options on this roadster that add to the overall appeal. The panorama roof, which provides riders with a clear view of the sky, is equipped with Magic Sky Control. This innovative piece of futuristic technology controls exposure to harmful UV and infrared rays from the sun while simultaneously keeping the cabin of the vehicle cooler. Attention assist, Nappa leather, and 12-way power seats only scratch the surface of the offerings that come with the AMG SL65 Roadster. Those who already love the Mercedes-Benz & AMG line will appreciate this one, and those who have only come to know the brand will find this Roaster particularly attractive. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Specs: Horsepower: 621 hp Torque: 738 lb-ft 0-60 MPH: 3.9 Seconds 60-0 Braking: 97 ft 1/4 Mile: 11.4 Seconds @ 125 MPH Top Speed: 186 MPH Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Review Do you like the idea of an aluminum 2 seat roadster? The Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG specs will surpass all your expectations. Once you are behind the wheel the Active Body Control will coddle you. An ingenious system uses the air suspension to tilt the body into corners. This produces less lateral G-forces when the road gets twisty. As standard equipment, a collision avoidance system can sense erratic traffic beyond the car in front of you, and it works wonders in heavy traffic. A panoramic glass roof is electrochromatic, changing from transparent to opaque instantly. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Engine Every other 2-seat roadster is powered by a V6 or V8. But being true to the SL’s heritage, Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG specs a twin-turbocharged 6.0 liter V12. The all-aluminum design has 3 valves per cylinder, and they take orders from a single overhead camshaft. It has 2nd order balance thanks to the 60-degree design. 2017 Mercedes-Benz SL Gets Facelift and Updates Although it is based on a Mercedes-Benz 5.5 liter, the 6.0-liter version is exclusive to AMG. The big V12 offers 621 horsepower and 740 lb-ft of torque with incredible efficiency. Each cylinder has two spark plugs that fire milliseconds apart. This produces a stronger pressure wave as the flame front moves across the piston. It might seem complex to have 24 ignition coils, but the system is redundant by nature. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Transmission Nine and ten-speed transmissions have invaded dealer lots in the ever-increasing quest for fuel mileage. It even happened to the V8 powered SL63 AMG. But engines that make this level of power don’t need that many gears to be efficient. That is why Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG specs a hardened 7-speed gearbox. The first production 7 speed in a passenger car is assembled in the original Daimler-Benz factory in Stuttgart Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Brakes Release the gas pedal in a hurry and your Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG specs a predictive stop. Software built into the ABS system moves the pads closer to the rotor if it anticipates a panic stop. Wet weather driving is also enhanced by automatic brake drying. By applying gentle pressure to the rotor, the pads are kept warm and dry- ready for action. Hold assist works in traffic to let your footrest. A firm press engages the hold, and it is released by tapping either pedal. Hill start assist is self-explanatory, and it is worth every penny. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Design As the evolution of their flagship, the task of making the Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG stand apart from the other SL models was given solely to AMG. Always considering performance, it has an aggressive chin spoiler and sculpted rocker panels to keep it glued to the pavement. Heat extractors in the fenders and a rear diffuser are also specific to the SL65. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Price For the model year 2018, Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG specs the retail price at $222,000. Considering the abilities of this roadster, the price is well justified. Leasing is a popular option if you need a new company car. It can also be your new super stock dragster thanks to its impressive performance. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Interior If you demand the very best from your automobile, you might want to check out an SL65. Nothing compares to diamond stitch quilted designo Nappa leather. Sure, the 12-way seats are heated, and they also have several massaging programs. Everything from shiatsu to hot stone is replicated by both seats. From the trunk partition to the variable wind diffuser, you need only to press a button, make a gesture, or use voice control. Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Standout Features You deserve to have something nobody has seen before. That is why Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG specs some wild features into the car. Audiophiles love clean bass, but there is not enough cabin room to mount a proper subwoofer. So AMG turned to Bang & Olufsen to create BeoSound. They patented a unique solution for low range sounds. The FrontBass speakers utilize the hollow chambers of the A-pillars to act as a resonance chamber. Not only does this cancel out road noise, they create dynamic low range sounds better than aftermarket systems. Another patented system is the Airscarf. This vent beneath the headrest is aimed to blow warm air down your back. You can cruise with the top down in freezing weather because Mercedes-Benz has your back.

Fans of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class are fond of the SUV's iconic styling in the form of a boxy body and tall stature. For decades, the G-Class has stood out from other Mercedes models thanks to these design cues and, for the 2019 model year, the German automaker isn't planning on changing that.Leaked by AutoWeek.nl is a series of images that show the upcoming 2019 Mercedes-Benz G-Class without any camouflage. From the images, we see a new model that has been refreshed, but not overhauled. In the front are new headlights that are more pronounced, as well as a new bumper.

2018 Mercedes-AMG E63 S Wagon Revealed

Not everyone wants a crossover. Big SUVs are never going away, but they are lumbering beasts with poor mileage. A wagon is a sensible choice for the modern family, and Mercedes-AMG has some nice proof of that.In a press release last night, we've learned that the E-Class wagon attracts the highest median household income of any product they offer. Boston and NYC represent 23% of wagon sales, with California buying another 22% of them. For five years, the E-Wagons have been without competition from other German brands in the US. Cadillac's CTS wagon was America's answer, but 2014 was its final year.AMG began as two Mercedes engineers who perfected the German performance aftermarket. Back in 1986, their shop in Westmont, IL built the iconic S124 "Hammer Wagon". Its successor is the 2018 E63 S, which arrives with a few nice features. The 4MATIC+ AWD system has been onboard since 2014, but this year it is powered by the same 4.0-liter twin turbo found across the AMG lineup. The 1986 AMG Hammer WagonYou will have 603 horsepower and a bonkers 627 lb-ft of torque between 2,500 and 4,500 rpm. Power of this magnitude allowed it to lap the 'Ring in 7:45.19, and reach 60 mph in 3.4 seconds. The latest in electronic differentials can send 100% of power to any corner at an instant- what a time to be alive! It even has a drift mode for your mother-in-law. Only available in Race mode, it disconnects the front axle for a proper rear tire fryer.Jon Olsson Cuts Roof Off of Mercedes-Benz G500 4x4²The latest in multi-chamber air suspension constantly corner-balances several times a second, with three distinct spring rates to choose from. Of course, the front brakes are 15.4" with 14.2" on the rear. Hidden easter eggs pay tribute to the E55 wagons we loved in the past. Mercedes-Benz and AMG know the value of their history, so the press release also included a Petrolicious video on the Hammer Wagon.

Mercedes-Benz Unveils New 2019 G-Class Interior

It seems like automakers change their core products every few years to keep them appealing in the marketplace. But change can be unsettling when it comes to a dedicated clientele. That's why Mercedes-Benz has only updated their Geländewagen only a few times since it was introduced in '79,Spy shots of the new G-Class are hilarious because of the camouflage. Anyone with eyes can tell what it is. The unmistakable box on wheels is getting a well-needed facelift, and the interior will finally come into the 21st century.New 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS is Hybrid and MeanA press release early this morning includes jaw-dropping photos of the new cockpit. Two large displays are borrowed from the S-Class, and below the central screen are the three iconic controls that will never be used. Between the jet engine-inspired vents are the triplet of differential locks. The only production SUV to have 3 locking diffs, it's nice to know you can climb a mountain if needed.A new steering wheel incorporates two touch-sensitive buttons that respond to swipes like the screen of a phone. The center console has the same control pad as all other models, and it is flanked by shortcut keys that will keep your eyes on the road.The G-Class and the Unimog are among the few Mercedes-Benz models to be made of steel and to have a traditional body-on-frame design. That is why they aren't built alongside the other models. Production is done by skilled masters at a dedicated plant in Graz, Austria. Their proving grounds is known as the Schöckl, one of the tallest mountains near the factory. It inspired the 6x6 and the 4x4 Squared to take on the world. A silver badge showing the mountain in the background is a matter of pride for the workers, and it is showcased on the B-pillar for everyone to see.We are very intrigued by these photos, so as soon as the new G-Wagens arrive you will see a complete review here on Autofluence.

The most prominent exterior modifications definitely come in the front end of the car. Looking straight on at the car, you'd think that the new CLS450 was an AMG model with how aggressive and sleek it looks.

Mercedes-Benz G500 4x4² Production To End

Nothing this good can last forever. The roughest & most capable G Wagen is not long for this world. In a press release this morning, Mercedes-Benz announced it will take orders until the end of October. All Hallows Eve will not be as scary without the big 4x4² towering over everyone.RENNtech Builds The Ultimate G500 4x4²It is a logical decision. The public reacted to it with shock & awe, and they sold more than anyone expected. It is so different than the normal G Class that it requires its own assembly methods along with negotiations with suppliers of the specialized parts. If you ever see one in person, you can't stop staring at the dual coil-over shocks at all corners.The beastly portal axles offer twice the ground clearance of the normal G500. I am only 5'9" with Timerlands on, and its a bit of a climb to get inside. Wearing 36" tires on 22" wheels appeals to the big kid in anyone, and they are probably the most aggressive tire on any production SUV. It is nice to have a 7" tall sidewall, the cushy ride won't spill your coffee. But from a practical standpoint, it doesn't fit in with anything else in their inventory. The G63 and G65 AMG models will carry on, and the aftermarket makes most of these parts if you want to build your own version.Our dealers are still taking orders for them, so click on the link below to get yours before collectors snatch them up.

Mercedes-Benz Unveils Plug-In Hybrid S560e

Name something the S Class Mercedes is not capable of. If you thought it is incapable of charging itself, you would be mistaken. A new plug-in hybrid version was the shocking basis for a press release on Monday. Yes, the previous generation had a hybrid version, but the new car has been engineered with hybrid technology in mind.If the AMG S65 has enough underhood space to accommodate a V12 engine and twin turbos, a V6 and a motor/generator should drop right in. The new components share the same case as the 9G-Tronic transmission. This saves weight and allows the battery to send power directly to the axles. Also onboard is a 7.2 kW charger to keep the battery topped off.Mercedes-AMG Unveil 2018 S63 & S65 With a rating of 13.5 kWh or 37 Amp-Hours, it can power the S560e for 25 miles of electric cruising. The 3.0 liter V6 is rated at 362 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque, combined with 90 kW and 325 lb-ft of electric torque, it allows the big car to reach 60 mph in 4.9 seconds. If you need V8 power in your life, our dealers have several flavors of new Mercedes S Class for sale. The S560e is expected to arrive in the US by mid-2019, and we'll have all the details here for you. Stay with us for all your Mercedes and S Class news. 2019 Mercedes-Benz S560e Sedan
