迈凯伦即将发布的720S(内部编号P14)无论外观还是内装在设计上都有很大提升。该车将在今年日内瓦车展首次亮相,其原型车已经在英国、西班牙和其他地方进行过测试。而最近曝光的合成图让我们能更好的看清新车外观。与先前的谍照相比,这张由Mark Antar绘制的合成图看起来很真实。新的前脸是典型的迈凯伦风格,但造型更顺滑。更突出的车鼻和一对LED大灯非常显眼。侧面轮廓也比650S有多项提升。该车动力系统为一台升级后的3.8升V8引擎,早先有报道称车辆名称中的数字“7”则意味着该车功率将达到521千瓦/700马力,不过迈凯伦已经驳斥了这个传言。新车采用的MonoCell碳纤维底盘也使车重比650S的1330公斤进一步降低。预计车辆0-96公里/小时加速时间3.0秒,最高时速333公里。
McLaren 720S rendering looks production ready
McLaren says its upcoming 720S (internally known as P14) will be a "big leap" in terms of design, both inside and out. Scheduled to make its debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, we’ve seen prototypes testing on roads in the U.K, Spain, and elsewhere – but this may be our best (virtual) look at the upcoming supercar yet.
Created by rendering artist Mark Antar, the proposed 720S was posted on the McLarenLife forum, and looks pretty true to form, if we're going on early spy shots. The new front fascia forgoes the typical McLaren language in place of something much sleeker. A more pronounced nose and a pair of LED accenting lights are immediately noticeable. The side profile has also been the subject of numerous enhancements over the outgoing 650S.
Apart from the rendering seen here, we do know that power will come courtesy of an upgraded biturbo 3.8-liter V8, and while early reports suggested the "7" could indicate power somewhere in the 700-horsepower (521-kilowatt) range, McLaren has
already quashed this rumors.
The MonoCell carbon fiber chassis will also be lighter, too, than the current 650S, which tips the scales at 1,330 kilograms (2,932 pounds). Total performance should surpass a 0-60 mph time (100 kmh) of 3.0 seconds, and a top speed of 207 miles per hour (333 kilometers per hour).
