    What kind of car is the McLaren P1?

    The McLaren P1 is the ultimate supercar, embodying the pinnacle of automotive technology.

    It boasts an astounding 916 horsepower from its hybrid system, combining a 3.8L V8 twin-turbo engine with an electric motor.

    Featuring innovative technology derived from F1, it showcases instant acceleration through the IPAS system and reduced air resistance at high speeds via a movable rear wing called DRS, truly resembling an F1 car for the road.

    LEGO® New Product Information

    The chassis employs a lavish use of carbon fiber in its monocoque structure. This lightweight yet rigid body achieves exceptional handling and performance.

    Only 375 P1s were produced between 2013 and 2015, selling out within a month of order acceptance. This rare, limited edition car is highly prized among collectors.

    Its overwhelming performance and innovative technology are astonishing even to those not interested in cars. The McLaren P1 can truly be called a moving work of art.

    *Note: Monocoque structure: A technology where the outer shell itself supports the body. The term combines the Greek word “mono” meaning one, and the French word “coque” meaning shell.
