Its 3.8-litre twin turbo V8 petrol works in conjunction with an electric motor for a combined output of 673kW. The engine rockets the P1 from 0-100 km/h in 2.8 seconds. Despite an electronically limited top speed of 350 km/h, the P1 is 5.5 seconds quicker than the legendary McLaren F1.
Fuel consumption is rated at 8.3 litres/100km with CO2 emissions of 194g/km. The electric motor offers a range of 11km.
CEO of McLaren Mike Flewitt said: “We designed the McLaren P1 from the outset with one clear goal: to be the best driver’s car on road and track. The confirmation of the performance figures underlines this.
“I am very proud of our team and everything they have achieved with this ambitious project. The handover of the first McLaren P1 is another milestone in our 50 year history.”
