McLaren P1 (2014)

Car Barn Sport | McLaren P1 (2014) | We believe , never did that McLaren P1 ™ is the most exciting , capable, technologically advanced and fastest supercar achieved," says Program Director ™ , Paul Mackenzie McLaren P1 . Moreover , many homeowners will be the car on the track , and the special day of the test " track. Includes adjustable suspension incredible technology developed for active aerodynamics and McLaren P1 ™ - is now banned in Formula 1 to see should give a performance advantage . The air flow is optimized by the body as " the use of wing devices and assets basement. Extender adjustable rear spoiler 120mm body on the way up to 300 mm on the track , maximizing production levels . The active chassis control revolutionary career (RCC ) can lower the car by 50 mm in career mode to create support. 1 inspired technology permeates McLaren Formula P1 ™ . The new fiber monocoque carbon Monkey Cage revolutionary form a complete structure that integrates the roof of the vehicle and its characteristic air intake - a design feature inspired by the McLaren F1 road. McLaren is a recognized technology leader in the global carbon . The body parts of the McLaren P1 ™ has also coordinated lightweight and durable carbon composite with complex shapes for optimal aerodynamics.

McLaren P1 ™ has been designed from the outset to focus on aerodynamic performance - just like a Formula 1 car . As one car, formula tunnel tests and CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) models were used to optimize the aerodynamic airflow and provide incredible levels of production and to cool the engine . The result is a downforce of 600 kg at a much lower rate than the maximum value ( 257 kmh / 161 mph) in career mode , which produces significantly higher than most luxury cars and high performance levels compatible with production GT3 racing car. This improves the output curves of the car, especially in high speed corners . Other areas of technology, obviously the McLaren Formula 1 ™ P1 includes revolutionary ceramic brakes carbon layers developed through Formula 1 partner McLaren Akebono . The IPAS very effective (Instant Power Assist System) is a development of KERS ( Kinetic Energy Recovery System ) used in Formula 1 cars , while DRS ( drag reduction system ) is used on the McLaren P1 ™ , which allows for more power and speed is flat with the touch of a button . Brake Steer A law outside Formula 1 technology - is used in the McLaren P1 ™ IPAS motor gasoline electric is the following Formula 1 regulations. From next year ( 2014 ) , is the Formula 1 cars with hybrid electric mode wells . McLaren P1 ™ name is inspired by Formula 1. McLaren F1 was first known internally as Project 1 or P1 . Despite the strong performance , McLaren supercar P1 ™ has also created a high-speed style and comfortable. " It was designed to be used on the track, with excellent comfort and sophistication ," said McLaren P1 ™ program director Paul Mackenzie . Add chief designer Dan Parry -Williams: " It is fast on the track, but is still fast , comfortable and stylish in the way.

The ownership experience McLaren P1 ™ is as special as the car itself , said Greg Levine, McLaren Automotive Head of Sales and Marketing : " The owners are part of the McLaren family if they are not in keeping . McLaren P1 ™ is more than a design made , and how McLaren . Everything is designed for a reason, like a Formula 1 car . Design two-seater mid-engine reflects the aerodynamic requirements are necessary to achieve the ambitious goal of the output. The priority was high speed performance with great composure , which usually come from the combined aerodynamic condition - art wanted a car that was connected and predictable at any speed There are only five main areas: a front body , front hood , rear doors . McLaren P1 ™ is extremely low ( 1138 mm in height in career mode ) having a front surface well below the ( already low ) 12C and the smallest of all other production supercar . The incredibly low back thigh and rear emphasize the design pronounced "reduced" and effective packaging. Especially , the design provides excellent airflow to the adjustable rear wing off . This evolved from the current principles of Le Mans car. This design involved very intensive detailed engineering , aerodynamics CFD simulation of aerodynamic efficiency and cooling. overall performance and the integrity of the design . Closely with Parry - Williams, Design Director Frank Stephenson wanted a car that Super " very nice and honest dramatically in line with the legacy of McLaren , " It's amazing , but also functional , a real intention was that I wanted a machine. " , but also to the forefront of automotive design . It is also more aggressive rear diffuser never on a street car. Like everything in McLaren P1 ™ is for good reason . The front panel is particularly low. Visibility has always been a mantra McLaren .

The " Hammer" style nose looks spectacular , giving the car a low and wide , but, as with everything in the car , also has an important functional role. Design is used to provide air circulation to two radiators before low temperature, which for performing turbo powertrain fresh air and gasoline engine electrical system IPAS . Thin LED headlamps , "style speed mark in a" give excellent lighting , but are also very space efficient , optimizing the " McLaren front surface can be used for cooling. This hot air Noses ' s , so that cold air feed to own the right to snorkel on the roof of the engine intake channel. " This signature graphic that highlights the extreme edge of the body of the pilot prototype was inspired sports Stephenson said . , The rear of the car is completely open to allow cooling, and extraction of the turbulent air on the rear wheel housings and to give the air stream. Stephenson said he has developed two cars in the history of the brand , as he and his team was the McLaren P1, inspired ™ : the legendary McLaren F1 road car of 1993 and the championship , winning Lewis Hamilton Formula 1 2008 , the MP4 -23 . He explains: " The 2008 season was" last year are Formula 1 cars have all aerodynamic . Take the car and sticks influenced the style of the McLaren P1 ™ . Each channel and make a work surface, either by air or cooling " . The McLaren F1 road car was a vehicle Stephenson tries " to remember, but not to imitate. air inlet is located in the monkey cage carbon fiber. Dihedral doors P1 ™ are instrumental McLaren surprisingly aerodynamic performance of the car . " Complex shape helps air duct on the side mounted radiator, and also reduces the overall turbulence of the side of a machine learning .

McLaren has been actively engaged with potential customers in the last month to get his thoughts on the McLaren P1 ™ , the style of the car. McLaren P1 ™ as unusual results in the form of production with little change . McLaren has closely followed the demand to maintain exclusivity and announced a production run of only 375 units . McLaren P1 ™ is an innovative technology and services, but also optimizes the driver and emotions connected with sensory enhancements , the driver feels like a part of the car and on the road after her. fashion and sport, normal car racing - with a real crescendo to the track direction - User targeted attack , and you really feel part of the car . McLaren Automotive Technical Director Carlo Della Casa said: " McLaren P1 ™ is unique because it is unfiltered experiences and emotions go directly to the driver , and is a great source of satisfaction. McLaren P1 ™ has a powerful engine, but very fuel that provides excellent throttle response . High levels of energy are crucial for the machine to deliver the performance requirement : be faster on a track than any other production road car . Energy efficiency has always been a McLaren mantra - High performance is the hallmark of quality engineering . The gasoline engine twin-turbo V8 and electric motor - mid-mounted engine , just behind the cab - are valued at 916PS (900 hp) and 900 nm, with emissions below 200g/km . Transmitting power to the rear wheels via a gearbox seven-speed double clutch driven. 'E' looks pretty cold in silence, in a McLaren million dollars , "says Paul Mackenzie , director of the Project on McLaren P1 ™ . IPAS , developed by McLaren to provide a capacity of up to 179HP (176 hp) electric motor , and can be implemented with the touch of a button mounted on the steering wheel . The twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 petrol engine McLaren P1 ™ is a new version of M838T , flame M838TQ . The motor unit is integrally , for integrating the electric motor and to impart rigidity .

The gasoline engine only produces 737PS (727 bhp) at 7500rpm and 4000rpm torque 720nm . Of course , the engine has a dry sump lubrication , like a Formula 1 car , and a low floor apartment crankshaft - to lower the center of gravity . The instantaneous motor torque and IPAS The single electric motor produces 179HP (176 hp) and 130 Nm of torque - even if , as directed by a multiple of two , a couple of actual performance of 260 nm. E ' was developed by the electronic branch of the McLaren Group and McLaren is unique in the P1 ™ . Like all electric motors can generate maximum torque immediately , which significantly increases the throttle response of the McLaren P1 ™ . The electric motor and gasoline 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8 then work together seamlessly , serving both the immediate response and high peak power . The electric motor has an internal rotor cooling - unusual for an electric motor vehicle engine - which enables the engine to deliver maximum performance for long periods , and an outer coating is also used for additional cooling of the electric motor. The electric motor of the McLaren P1 ™ weighs 26 kg and produces more than twice the KERS power unit used in Formula 1 ( 82hp to 179HP ) .
