Meanwhile, the rear displays U-shaped taillights and a carbon-fiber diffuser, located in the vehicle's center exhaust. The rear wing also extends up to six inches in track mode to get the car intact during high speeds.

An industry insider said that the W1 "has the performance of rivals twice the price." The hypercar reportedly targets the next generation of customers of the P1 hypercar by emphasizing performance on the racetrack. A total of 399 units will be built by McLaren for North American customers.
