A McLaren W1 has been spied testing once again, this time, somewhere in Spain. The hypercar was spotted driving at a brisk pace on a twisty public road.
The W1 is McLaren’s next-gen hypercar and the successor to the P1. The carmaker has even adopted a similar recipe when it comes to the W1’s powertrain. It features an all-new 4.0-litre V8 engine paired with a hybrid system, producing 1,258 hp and 988 lb-ft of torque.
The W1 is based on a lightweight carbon fibre monocoque. It weighs just 1399 kg, resulting in a power-to-weight ratio of 911 PS per tonne. McLaren also claims that the W1 can sprint from 0-124 mph in 5.8 seconds.
McLaren has been putting the hypercar to the test in various conditions. Last year, it covered over 3000 miles in the sweltering heat of Arizona. It has also been tested in the sub-zero temperatures of the Arctic.
