HIGH LIFE #15 Dec 2017 103 But don’t be fooled. For all the simplicity that has been built into the interior, the McLaren 570S remains a beast under the bonnet where technology developed by McLaren’s Formula 1 engineers has delivered a car with speed to burn. Producing 570 horsepower and built around a lightweight carbon fiber chassis, it accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in 3.2 seconds with a top speed of 328km/h. And while “Normal” mode with automatic transmission allows for a pleasant cruise, the 570S also boasts “Sport” and “Track” modes plus F1-style paddle shifts to give that racing feel when you’ve switched across to manual.
