There seems to be no shortage of amazing\nperformance vehicles as of late, all running from good ol’ fossil fuels to the\nyet to be accepted electricity and no I’m not referring to Tesla but the\nout-of-this-world Koenigsegg\nGemera<\/a> . But let us return to something a bit more ‘traditional’ if I may.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m of course talking about the 2021\nMcLaren 765LT a fire-breathing follow-up to the already amazing 675. Allow me to bring you up to speed on 7 reasons why the 2021\nMcLaren 765LT isn’t just a faster follow up to an already fast follow up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s fast 0-100.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Starting off with addressing the elephant or\nrather the McLaren in the room, it is no doubt that the 765LT is fast, with the\nadded power, downforce and diet programme launching the British rocket from\n0-100 in 2.8 seconds. Putting this into perspective, the Honda Civic 1.5 TCP\nhits 0-100 kmph in 8.4 seconds which is not exactly slow. But this means the\n765LT hits the century sprint THREE whole times faster, marinate on that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s even faster 0-200.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

While its zero-to-100-kmph time is only a tenth\nquicker than the 720S, the LT will also hit 200 kmph a whopping 1.2 seconds\nbefore the S. To add another visualisation into this, the aforementioned Honda\nCivic 1.5 TCP could be given a 10 second head start and the 765LT will overtake\nit within the next 10 seconds at full throttle. For those of you with a taste\nfor drag racing, you know that this is incredible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Same same but different.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In the middle of the 765LT sits a\ntwin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 that is also featured in its 720S sibling. But\nit’s pushing out 45 more horsepowers. Now that doesn’t sound like much, but\nMcLaren have somehow managed to push out the performance of half a 2020 1.5\nPerodua Myvi without making the engine any bigger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Less can also be more.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With the weight reduction, you’d expect the cabin\nto be bare bones, however like any good McLaren, it can be customized with a\nmix of soft-grain leather and faux-suede Alcantara upholstery as well as myriad\ncolor combinations. It however comes with lightweight seats, removed\ncarpet, and thinner-gauge glass to supplement the weight reduction for added\nperformance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern necessities where you need it or don’t.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To keep the modern speed enthusiast connected\nwith the world, there is an 8.0-inch touchscreen mounted in between the\nfront-seat passengers. There is also an optional four-speaker sound system and\na top of the range powerful Bowers & Wilkins audio system. These items can\nof course be deleted at no cost if keeping your McLaren as light as possible is\nyour primary focus. We however appreciate a banging sound system especially if\nit’s a given option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drivers visibility remains an absolute gem.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As expected, the view out of the cockpit is\nsublime and remains one of the best in the business with fantastic outward\nvisibility and only the essential controls in view to truly keep your mind of\nthe drive. In cars like this who naturally sit very low, McLaren has time and\ntime again come out on top for some of the best cockpit arrangements in the\nbusiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meet your Heroes.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The McLaren 765LT bears plenty of knick knacks\ninspired from the Almighty Mclaren Senna which is something many of us would\nreally want to get our grubby little hands on. This of course translates to\nbetter downforce, sharper chassis adjustments and an unmistakable road\npresence. Longer, lighter and definitely faster, what’s not to love? McLaren\nalso only plans to only make 765 of these 765LT’s which certainly makes it one\nto look out for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
