Production of McLaren cars

Description

Spotless. Quiet. Clinical. A fusion of precise production techniques and hand craftsmanship, McLaren's bespoke assembly process and celebrated attention to detail ensure every car they produce is worthy of the McLaren badge. Accurate to within thousandths of a millimetre, a geometric and surface validation tool measures over 450 different points on each car. Post production, every car goes through the Dynamic Test road simulator and the Monsoon. A bespoke water chamber, the Monsoon releases over 1,200 litres of recycled deionised water onto the car. These are all time consuming procedures – but they’re the only way to ensure every McLaren is flawless.

  • McLaren Automotive to launch 18 new cars as part of £1.2bn plan to go 100hybrid by 2025

    "At today’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, luxury British sportscar and supercar maker McLaren Automotive has announced its ambitious, wide-ranging business plan that will take the company to its fifteenth anniversary. Track25 is an evolution of the Track22 plan that was first launched at the Geneva Motor Show in 2016 and the updated plan now includes significant new milestones. Track25 sets out a clear roadmap for future vehicles, production and technology that will allow the brand to continue to position itself as a major global player in the sportscar and supercar market. McLaren is committed to ensuring that its sportscar and supercar range will be hybrid within seven years. True to the spirit of pushing the boundaries of technology to benefit drivers, McLaren will also evaluate new augmented driving features and help develop a lighter, superfast-charging, high-power battery system for performance applications that is expected to have over 30 minutes of electric range around a race track. The company will also continue its drive to win the new supercar ‘weight race’ by ensuring, as it does today, that each of its products is the lightest in their segment. This complements a £50m investment in developing and manufacturing the future of lightweighting technology with the soon to-open McLaren Composites Technology Centre (MCTC). Once fully operational, the MCTC will mean around 57 per cent of vehicle content by value will be UK sourced."
