The story

McLaren Automotive is a British manufacturer of high-performance sports and supercars based in Woking. Tracing its lineage to the McLaren Formula 1 team founded by New Zealander Bruce McLaren in 1963, the modern road car division launched with the F1 in 1992, widely regarded as the greatest driver's car ever made. McLaren Automotive was formally established in 2010.

Fearlessly forward.

History

Bruce McLaren founded his racing team in 1963 while still competing as a driver. He died testing a CanAm car in 1970. The team became one of Formula 1's greatest constructors under Ron Dennis. The F1 road car (1992-1998), engineered by Gordon Murray, set the production car speed record at the time. McLaren built the SLR with Mercedes-Benz from 2003 to 2010. In 2010 McLaren launched a dedicated road car division. The MP4-12C, 650S, 720S, and Senna followed a modular carbon tub architecture. The marque struggled financially through the COVID-19 pandemic, requiring emergency financing. New models like the Artura plug-in hybrid point toward electrification.

On track

McLaren have won eight Constructors' Championships and 12 Drivers' Championships in Formula 1. The MP4/4 of 1988 is the most dominant F1 car in history, winning 15 of 16 races. Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost together collected four of McLaren's drivers' titles in the late 1980s. The F1 road car won Le Mans outright in 1995 on its first attempt, a startling achievement for a car never designed to race. McLaren's IndyCar and CanAm programmes also produced multiple championships.
