The British manufacturer did not keep its fans waiting by presenting a new model of the charged sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019. According to reliable data, this is a lighter and more powerful version of the previously known 570S model. As the fans of the brand noted, this is the 4th model with the LT mark in the brand's line (Long Tail). The brand used the first markings in the 90s, producing charged cars with the GT mark.

Compared with the previously known model 570S, the new McLaren 600LT received a new body, large dimensions, individual structural parts, as well as a unit and an exhaust system. Optionally, the manufacturer offers to install a number of carbon elements, due to which the weight of the McLaren 600LT 2018 will decrease by 96 kilograms, which means that the dynamic characteristics of the car will improve.

Exterior sports car McLaren 600LT 2019-2020

The new sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 in design, at first glance, is not much different from other models of the brand. In fact, the car has received significant changes to improve dynamics. The car is still made in the style of the brand, which speaks of classic traditions. The front of the new sports car McLaren 600LT 2019 speaks in every detail about the power under the hood or, more correctly, under the trunk lid.

Front optics sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019, like the 570LT, received a sharp shape to the hood and rounded closer to the front arches. The basis for the optics will be only LED technology, the central part was taken under the lenses, and L-shaped LED running lights are installed on top, under two arcs in each optics. Starting with the basic configuration, the set of optics includes an adaptive function and a cornering light system, the system can also illuminate pedestrians at low speeds and moving objects.

The bumper of the McLaren 600LT 2019 sports car on all the eves of the brand consists of two parts, the lower carbon fiber, with many curved parts for better aerodynamics, the upper part is painted in body color. To give even more anger and style to the sports car, the side parts of the bumper were decorated with "fangs", recesses, separated from the base of the bumper. According to the manufacturer, more expensive trim levels will get an automatic splitter control system to add even better dynamic characteristics to the 2019 McLaren 600LT.

The main body of the sports car remains the same, in terms of the luggage compartment in front and the windshield. But imperceptible changes were made to the wiper, instead of one, as is the case with many car models, now the McLaren 600LT 2019 has got two. There is no information about the details of the glass configuration, but judging from the operating conditions (in most cases only in dry and warm weather), you should not expect heating or the like. The upper part of the glass of the McLaren 600LT 2018 was decorated with light and rain sensors, as well as sensors for security systems.

Side part sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 will surprise in its own way. In addition to the sporty body parts and different curves, the designers added a lot of inserts and overlays on the side to give a special style and better performance. As a rule, the coloring of such inserts is inversely proportional to the main body color. The doors of the 2019-2020 McLaren 600LT open up, just like in the 570LT, by pulling on the hidden handle at the top of the doors. The main difference that the novelty gives out on the road is the trim on the door panels, as well as the air intake for better engine cooling.

Side mirrors McLaren 600LT 2019 stand out in their own way, located on the door panel, the designers pulled them to the side, installing on a very long fastener. The upper part can be made of carbon or painted to match the body color, the lower part and fasteners only in body color. The functionality of the mirrors of the McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 is not the most diverse. The list includes an electric adjustment drive, automatic folding and an automatic adjustment system when reversing.

In terms of color, the body of the sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 is bright and noticeable among other cars:

• yellow;
• red;
• golden;
• blue;
• grey;
• aquamarine;
• burgundy;
• green;
• purple;
• Orange;
• light blue;
• silver;
• white;
• the black;
• brown.

Comparing the side of the new McLaren 600LT 2019-2020 front and back, the differences can be seen with the naked eye. It immediately becomes clear that there are a lot of horses under the hood, and the torque is transmitted to the rear wheels. Engineers deliberately made the rear an order of magnitude larger than the front, thereby improving traction. Starting with the basic configuration, the front of the new McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 has 19 ″ branded wheels with 225/35 tires, behind are 20 ″ wheels with 285/35 tires. For better grip, all trim levels are fitted with Pirelli P ZERO TROFEO R tires.

The back of the sports car McLaren 600LT 2019 is unique, in comparison with the previous model 570LT, the novelty has received a sporty design and style. In particular, the rear bumper is highlighted, divided into two parts. The upper part is reserved for LED fog lights and chrome brand lettering. The lower part of the sports car has acquired a massive diffuser, with highlighted vertical lines.

Hind feet sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 are original, in order to emphasize the aggressive style, the designers added LED backlighting along the contour, and made the middle darker, which in total gives the car an unusual look. For better aerodynamics, the side bumper has been embellished with additional recesses. Due to this, not only the dynamic characteristics have improved, but also the style of the sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019.

The last detail of the sports car is the roof. As it should be for a sports car, the designers took into account all the dynamic characteristics, the rear window is small, since the car's engine is also installed here. Most of all, you pay attention to the unusual exhaust system, to the extent of the location of the engine, the exhaust was installed right under the rear window. Instead of the usual small tailpipes, the new McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 has two large tailpipes. Optionally, the manufacturer offers to add an improved system, with automation for adjusting the damper, such a set allows you to change the sound for different modes of movement.

Another detail is the spoiler of the new McLaren 600LT 2019. Engineers have modified it in the full sense of the word, the arc is directed forward, and for a better pressing effect, the automatic system, based on the collected data, independently adjusts the angle of the spoiler. Finally, the spoiler underlines the LED stop-follower, which is bright and clearly visible from a distance.

Well, the new sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 will surprise you with a new design. Comparing with the 570LT model, the novelty received slight differences, although even such small details only improved the dynamic characteristics of the car.

The interior of the new McLaren 600LT 2019-2020

The salon of the new McLaren 600LT 2019 did not receive any special differences, in comparison with the appearance. In total, the car is designed for two seats, the second row simply does not exist due to design features. On the other hand, the designers have added modern technology, which at high speed greatly facilitated the control of the car.

Center console The 2019 McLaren 600LT stands out for its large 12 ″ multimedia touchscreen display. The basis for the system was a proprietary operating system, although the buyer is optionally offered to install Apple CarPlay. The more common Android Auto system is not installed due to considerations of the cost of the sports car, and the functional part of the car. Passengers of the McLaren 600LT 2018 can synchronize their gadgets with multimedia, showing basic information, applications and other information on the display.

Above the main display of the 2019 McLaren 600LT, two round air ducts were placed, like the turbines of an aircraft, below the display, the control panel for the audio system and other functions of the sports car. Another design move is that this whole set protrudes above the main part of the dashboard, thereby giving a special style that is not found in other cars of this brand. The center tunnel of the McLaren 600LT sports car 2018-2019 turned out to be more stuffed. From the front to the back, the designers have placed only the basic details for control and comfort. At the beginning, there are two LED-backlit cupholders, a little further down the McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 transmission control panel in the form of a set of buttons and a pair of security systems. This whole set of central tunnel ends with a small armrest, with a spacious compartment and a very comfortable fit for the hand.

As already mentioned, the interior of the new McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 is designed to seat only two passengers. Sports car seats from Recaro, no options and despite the selected equipment. Huge lateral support on the backrest and on the seat itself, monolithic backrest and sports headrest, with massive lateral support. The seat frame is made of carbon fiber, which significantly lightens the weight of the car. In terms of comfort, you should not expect a soft landing in the 2018 McLaren 600LT, but at high speed such seats are not an interchangeable interior detail.

Only natural materials were used as the material for the interior cladding of the McLaren 600LT 2019. For the basic configuration, upholstery made of genuine leather and Nappa leather is available, optionally or more expensive configurations will receive Alcantara inserts. As an option, the manufacturer proposes to install inserts made of natural wood, carbon fiber or polished aluminum around the perimeter of the 2018-2019 McLaren 600LT. In addition, you can install LED lighting to add more effect and style to the new sports car. Another integral element is the stitching, according to the standard it is red or yellow, optionally other shades are available. As for the interior colors of the McLaren 600LT 2018-2019, in most cases black or burgundy, brown, beige and white shades are also available.

The manufacturer does not exclude the option of choosing a different interior color, so for a high price the buyer can afford such a variety. The driver's seat will be no less surprising, since it is it that gives the new sports car McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 in the first place the most attention. The engineers decided not to deviate from modern trends, making the instrument panel fully digital, based on a 12 ″ color display. Similarly, the devices on the McLaren 600LT 2018 dashboard turned out to be non-standard, the driver can independently choose the location of the devices (the devices are not round, but in the form of numbers). In addition to the choice of devices, you can change the shade of the backlight and a couple of elements for displaying information.

Steering wheel sports car McLaren 600LT 2019 looks special, the designers did not transfer it from the 570th, giving it a new style and features. The upper part has acquired a small insert, matching the color of the interior stitching. The steering wheel itself is round in shape, with a flattened lower part, designed for three spokes, the spokes are made of carbon fiber to give reliability and ease of control. Alcantara was used for the steering wheel cover of the McLaren 600LT 2019, there is no leather on the steering wheel even in the basic configuration. Behind the wheel, they placed the gearshift paddles, as well as the direction indicator and control lever for light devices.

The steering wheel can be adjusted in height and depth, which allows you to sit in the cabin as comfortably as possible and drive a sports car. In order not to confuse and distract the driver, there are simply no functional buttons on the steering wheel. Making a conclusion about the interior of the new McLaren 600LT 2018-2019 model, I immediately want to say, despite the presence of modern technologies, the design is still recognizable, and the style itself has become an order of magnitude better, having received sports seats and a special note of luxury and elegance.

Specifications McLaren 600LT 2019-2020

Unlike the new look and sporty variety of the interior, the specifications of the new McLaren 600LT 2019-2020 are not very diverse. There is only one engine and one transmission to choose from.

The manufacturer has not yet suggested the rest of the technical characteristics of the new McLaren 600LT 2018-2019, leaving fans in a little intrigue. Taking into account the data of the novelty and comparing it with the 570LT model, the difference is noticeable, from acceleration time to new body sizes and weight. To improve the last two indicators, the engineers made the body of the sports car from carbon fiber, as a result, the dynamic performance of the McLaren 600LT 2018 and safety were improved.

Safety and comfort McLaren 600LT 2018-2019
