McLaren’s next flagship supercar – known internally as the 750S – will reportedly be unveiled in April, just four months after production of the 720S ended.


The successor of McLaren 720S Supercar – named 750S within the UK company – to be announced in April 2023, according to foreign reports.

According to the report, the 750S will be powered by the 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine from the McLaren 720S, rather than a more powerful version of the Artura’s 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 hybrid.

Compared to the McLaren 720S, the 750S is said to get a boost in output – from 530kW to 552kW – but it won’t be as powerful as the track-focused 765LT, which produces 563kW from the same V8 engine.
