Brazilian F1 champ Ayrton Sea was an utterly unique man-a rare blend of macho and tendeess, compassion and cuing. So it comes as no surprise that even decades after his death people are still p...

Not to be outdone by American car makers who auctions their special models left and right for charity, McLaren sent a super special 720S tothe Naples Winter Wine Festival (NWWF). This one-of-a-kindMcLaren 720S MSO raised the goodly sum of$650,000 for the Naples Children & Education Foundation. The one-off McLaren 720S MSO auctioned at the event is one of the nicest examples of the supercar created to date by McLaren Special Operations. The highlights of the car includea Nerello Red exterior paint finish (named after the Nerello Mascalese grape from the Mascali area of Castaia, Sicily); a Saddle Brown with Nerello stitching leather interior; and a custom steering wheel featuring leather a...

Ordered by McLaren Newport Beach,US market’s largest McLaren retailer, the 10McLaren MSO X models havebeen delivered to their buyers in Las Vegas. Created by McLaren Special Operations unit to emulate the spirit of the 570S GT4 race car, the X bunch come with liveries inspired byMcLaren F1 GTR race car of the 90s. Now, normally it would be really uncool to have your car painted in motorsport liveries if you don’t want to use it exclusively on the race track. But in the case of theMcLaren MSO X that’s alright because of the prestigious badge of the car. Granted, you still have to explain to people what those graphics on the exterior mean and by which legendary endurance racer they are ins...

Elon Musk’s fascination with Mars is legendary. The man is obsessed with conquering the red planet, and has even come up with a, theoretical, plan to nuke it, so that it might become more habitable for humans. That may be a bit too ambitious, but Elon can do other things to leave his mark on Mars. And apparently the mark he wants to leave there is his red Tesla Roadster. The cherry red first-gen Tesla Roadster is space-bound inside one of Musk’s Falcon rockets – how cool is that? The guy has his own space rockets! – replacing the “concrete or steel blocks” usually used as simulated mass for test rockets. The car is going to be “on a billion year elliptic Mars orbit,” playing David B...

You know, it seems that the sole purpose of revealing the new McLaren Sea Ultimate Series was to make people eat their heart out. I mean, here’s a super expensive car that nobody could afford anyway, and they tell us they have already sold all 500 production units of it. Not only that, they’ve even auctioned off the very last one for charity. Now, normally we feel a tinge of jealously wash over us when we hear about this limited edition hypercars. This time though, we’re OK. You can keep your McLaren Sea those 500 who bought one. We don’t know whether it’s the looks or the fact that it’s yet another incredibly fast supercar or blah blah blah. But we just don’t fancy this thing. If w...

For all the mystery surrounding the nature of the first McLaren Ultimate Series, the car was unveiled rather unceremoniously at midnight last night. And, well, it’s named after a dead man. But what a man! The all-new McLaren Sea is the “ultimate” car in every way, offering unrivaled performance on both road and track. At least that is the pitch. The spec sheet is not particularly overwhelming. McLaren Sea has only800PS (789bhp) and 800Nm (590 lb ft) to play with, which by the standards of today’s hypercars is not that impressive. But this thing is a racer at heart, and as such it does not rely entirely on power for speed. The Sea puts a premium on lightness, focused and sophisticate...

The highly anticipated electric crossover by Jaguar has been to America recently where it completed aroad trip along Califoia’s West Coast to prove it is almost ready for production. TheJaguar I-PACE is finalizing itsrange and durability tests ahead of an early 2018 reveal. The road trip was plaed for the production prototypeJaguar I-PACE after a fan asked the company if the EV all-rounder would have enough range to complete her favourite road trip along Califoia’s West Coast. They took this as a challenge and set out to prove it would be a breath for the I-PACE. The results were promising as the vehicle covered the200 miles from Sunset Boulevard, Los Angeles, to Morro Bay, San Luis...

When you are as big and as respected as McLaren Automotive is right now, you can make up with color that isn’t special at all, put a fancy name on it, and charge people a lot of money for the privilege of having it. That is pretty much the deal with the latest McLaren MSO color,Muriwai White. Conceived by Bruce McLaren’s daughter Amanda,Muriwai White has no doubt a cool backstory.Muriwai is the New Zealand coastal community where Bruce McLaren won his first motor race at the age of 15 and the name chosen for his family house in England that was painted in a blueish white colour. That’s all great, but to look at it you wouldn’t call this shade anything but plain old white. But hey, y...

BMW might be losing the extreme offroad game to Mercedes-Benz, but their tuners are not going down without fight. In an effort to give the G-Wagen 4×4² some serious competition Manhart Performance has come up with a hard-core SUV based on the X6M. It’s called Manhart MHX6 Dirt² and it’s a 900-hp monster capable of conquering […] The post Manhart MHX6 Dirt² Is BMW X6M’s Offroad Cousin appeared first on Motorward....

Everybody in the car world was waiting to see the newBMW i8 Roadster in production form. And although we have to admit the whole thing was a bit anti-climactic given the build-up, the hybrid sports car is still a hugely desirable thing. The new model, and the latest version of the i8 Coupe, benefit from increased range as well. Theoptimized BMW eDrive powertrain with its turbocharged three-cylinder and electric motors delivers369 hp in theBMW i8 Roadster – and of course the 2018 Coupe, but it’s hard to focus on that with the Roadster in the center of things. That power propels theBMW i8 Coupe from 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds while the i8 Roadster accelerates in 4.4 second.Both ...

I am not suggesting for a minute that cars aren’t good-looking these days or that we don’t get iconic designs anymore. The issue is, they seem to be a dying breed. Compared to only a few decades ago the number of truly beautiful new cars is at an all-time low, and it keeps dwindling as the focus shifts to safety and efficiency and, these days, electrification. The automobile has been around for more than a hundred years now, and in that time designers have tried pretty much everything. It appears they are almost at their wits’ end. There are only so many tricks of creativity one can come up with when one is restricted not just bynewfangled regulations, but also the natural order o...

McLaren GT, the racing arm of McLaren Automotive, aounced today the start of a project that will bring about a GT3 racing version of the highly praised 720S road car. Set for launch in 2019, the still far offMcLaren 720S GT3 will phaseout...
