Later this week, on Sunday afternoon, supercar manufacturer McLaren will present its next performance supercar to the world. The vehicle will succeed the famous F1 and the stunning P1, and as we noted late last week, it would likely follow the same naming convention of a letter and a 1. This has been confirmed by McLaren.
In a new press release, we are told that the upcoming vehicle will be known as the W1, and that it will be “will be a successor to the iconic McLaren F1 and the era-defining McLaren P1.”
Speaking about this car that we will all see for the first time at 13:00 BST / 14:00 CEST on Oct. 6, McLaren Automotive CEO Michael Leiters adds: “The McLaren W1 is defined by true supercar principles and is the ultimate expression of a McLaren supercar. Born from our rich racing history and World Cup mentality, W1 pushes the boundaries of performance and is worthy of the name ‘1’. Like its predecessors, the F1 and McLaren P1, W1 defines the rules of a true supercar.”
What do you expect from the W1?
