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.

Father-And-Son Duo Turn A Porsche 928 'Surfari' Into A Be...

This transaxle Porsche was made to hit the waves. Poland’s Baltic coast might not be the first place you’d think of when it comes to surfing. Still, a passionate surfing community resides on the country’s Hel peninsula, where a father and son have built a thriving watersports business and campsite and a community around it. The Chałupy 6 campsite is managed by Tadeusz Elwart, whose father introduced him to the wonderful world of Porsche. Because of the father-son duo’s shared love for Porsche and the growth of their Hel Riders festival, the idea of the unique Porsche 928 ‘Surfari’ was born. The car needed to be off-road capable and get surfers right to the beach as soon as big waves start showing up, and the Porsche 928, a transaxle modern classic, was the perfect candidate for the project. Its V8 power imbued it with supercar-level performance in its day, and its design also made it a practical, usable sports car. However, turning the 928 into a beach buggy involved challenges, including adapting the gearbox, suspension, and differential to make it off-road ready. Tomasz Staniszewski, an engineer who raced the Classic Dakar Rally in his own Porsche 924, rose to the occasion and worked with twin brothers Lange and Lange, who styled the car, to create the Porsche 928 ‘Surfari.’ After debuting at the Hel Riders Festival, the 928 ‘Surfari’ embarked on a road trip to the Petro-Surf air-cooled Porsche festival in Sylt, Germany, and then to Rømø in Denmark. With surfing in its soul, the Porsche 928 became an artifact of an incredible surfing subculture as the Porsche 928 ‘Surfari.’ View All Porsche 928s For Sale Image Source: Porsche

Porsche Reports Impressive Q2 2024 Results With High-Dema...

Porsche's second quarter of 2024 showed impressive growth, outperforming the previous quarter in sales revenue, operating profit, and group operating return on sales, which hit 17%. Its strong performance was fueled by the high demand for models like the 911 Carrera GTS T-Hybrid and the soon-to-be-launched all-electric Macan. The company's strong financial results, with a group operating profit of $3.37 billion and a 15.7% group operating return on sales for the first half of 2024. The 2024 year marks a significant period for Porsche, with updates to four of its six model lines, including the Panamera, Taycan, and 911, all launched on schedule. The introduction of the new all-electric Macan in September strengthens Porsche's leading position in the electric vehicle market. CEO Oliver Blume highlighted the excitement surrounding the 911 Carrera GTS, the first road-approved 911 with a super-light performance hybrid system. However, the extensive product launches have impacted sales and inventories, with a necessary increase in research and development costs. Despite challenges, Porsche's financial strategy remains healthy, with a well-balanced sales structure that absorbs market fluctuations. Deliveries to customers saw a slight decline, but markets in Europe and Germany posted increases. Supply shortages, particularly in special aluminum alloys due to external factors, have led Porsche to adjust its 2024 forecast. Despite these adjustments, Porsche remains focused on supplying the automotive world with a wide range of powerful and efficient vehicles.

Porsche Reveals Two New Porsche Macan Electric Variants

Porsche adds variety to its new electric SUV offering. Porsche recently introduced its second all-electric model, the new 2024 Porsche Macan Electric, an electrified redesign of Porsche’s popular small SUV. Initially launched with two variants: the Porsche Macan 4 and the Porsche Macan Turbo, the iconic luxury sports car manufacturer has now introduced two more variants, adding both to the lower and higher end of the Macan range. The new rear-wheel drive Porsche Macan Electric offers a nimble version of the electric compact luxury SUV, along with saving weight in comparison to the Macan 4 Electric by forgoing all-wheel drive. Starting at an MSRP of $75,300 compared to the $78,800 price of the Macan 4, the new rear-wheel drive model serves as the new entry-level offering for the model. Its typical power output is 335 horsepower, but it can access as much as 355 hp of overboost power with Launch Control. It also has 415 lb/ft of torque on tap. Getting from 0-60 in 5.4 seconds and reaching a top speed of 136 mph, the new Porsche Macan Electric is an electrified version of the Macan’s everyday enjoyable luxury SUV formula. Meanwhile, near the top of the new Porsche Macan Electric range is the new Macan 4S, which sports a new rear-axle motor, which is paired with the same front-axle motor as the Macan 4 and Macan Turbo. It normally sports 402 horsepower but can access as much as 509 horsepower with overboost, and as much as 578 lb/ft of torque with Launch Control. Adaptive Air Suspension and Porsche Active Suspension Management come as standard on the model, and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus with optional rear-axle steering all work to enhance performance and comfort. The Macan 4S Electric, starting at $84,900, gets from 0-60 in 3.9 seconds with a top speed of 149 mph. In addition to introducing two new models, the new Porsche Macan Electric features a host of new cosmetic features, including a new exterior color, Slate Grey Neo. The Macan Electric also introduces a new 20-inch set of wheels, and a new available off-road design package not only adds a more rugged look but changes the geometry of the front bumper to increase the approach angle of the new Porsche Macan Electric to reach as much as 17.5 degrees, making the new electric luxury SUV a more adventure-ready vehicle. Both new Porsche Macan Electric models are available to order now, and deliveries are set to begin in the United States in the fourth quarter of the year. With a larger range of models and various new design options, the new Porsche Macan Electric is ready to write the next chapter of the success story of one of Porsche’s most important and influential models.

Porsche Debuts Hybrid 911 & More At Goodwood

The first hybrid roadgoing Porsche 911 wows at Goodwood. The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the most exciting annual automotive events, and this year’s iteration has just ended. Porsche showcased the latest generation of the 911 at the event, and front and center is the new 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, the first hybrid roadgoing version of one of the world’s most legendary supercars. However, Porsche’s automotive futurism and driver’s car excellence were showcased in full, with many of Porsche’s latest and greatest creations being shown at the prestigious event.

Porsche's New Panamera Sets A Record Lap Time On The Nürb...

The new Panamera shatters previous records at the Nürburgring. Porsche's newest Panamera has once again shown what it's made of on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, with test driver Lars Kern behind the wheel. The high-performance four-door hatch clocked in 5.64 seconds faster than its predecessor, setting a new record of 7:24.17 minutes. The milestone achievement speaks volumes about Porsche's dedication to refining its sports cars. Kern, who had previously set records in 2016 and 2020, was impressed with Panamera's improved agility, especially in tricky sections like Hohe Acht and Brünnchen. The Panamera's performance increase comes from several key upgrades, including a hybrid-assisted, eight-cylinder engine and Porsche's new Active Ride chassis. These changes, along with track-focused Michelin tires, contributed to a faster lap time. Kern emphasized the chassis' stability and agility, perfectly balancing comfort and sportiness. The new Panamera is about delivering a driving experience that acclimates seamlessly from everyday roads to demanding tracks like the Nürburgring. For the record-setting lap, the Panamera was equipped with a racing seat and safety cage for protection, but it stayed true to its series version. A specially designed Carbon Aerokit enhanced its performance by increasing downforce and improving aerodynamic balance. The new Panamera shows that Porsche continues to push the envelope.

Porsche Ibérica Celebrates 40 Years With New Hybrid 911 C...

A new Sonderwunsch creation commemorates Porsche’s Iberian presence. Porsche has had a presence in the Iberian Peninsula for 40 of its over 75 years as a luxury sports car manufacturer. It was in 1984 when Porsche transitioned from being represented by an importer in Spain to establishing Porsche Espaňa. Since then, Porsche has made its mark on the Iberian region with its incredible lineup of luxury sports cars. Porsche is celebrating four decades in Spain and Portugal with a new creation from Sonderwunsch: the Porsche 911 Cuarenta Edition. The Cuarenta Edition features a configuration that interprets the modern Porsche 911 if it were configured by a Spanish or Portuguese Porsche client 40 years ago. As such, the car features a bespoke exterior color called Quercusverde, inspired by the leaves of the holm oak, the same tree that inspired the anniversary logo featured on the Cuarenta Edition car. Inside, the upholstery consists of Truffle Brown and Cohiba Brown leather, which is also paired with tartan seat centers, with special details like cross stitching and piping in Crayon. Based on the latest 2025 Porsche 911 Carrera GTS, the new Cuarenta Edition is also an example of the first roadgoing hybrid Porsche 911, with the T-Hybrid drive system introduced with the new 911 Carrera GTS. Combining tradition with futuristic performance, and timeless aesthetics with bespoke design, the new Porsche 911 Cuarenta Edition is not only a celebration of Porsche’s presence in the Iberian region but also of Porsche’s excellence as a manufacturer.
