迈凯轮近日携新款720S亮相日内瓦车展。该车功率720马力，车辆0-96公里/小时加速时间2.8秒，0-200公里/小时加速时间7.8秒，200公里-0耗时4.6秒，车厂还宣称，该车最初400加速时间仅需10.3秒。该车也比其上代车型650S更轻，它的动态性能更由于，由于采用碳纤维单体车身，720S重量仅为2829磅（约合1284公斤）。720S的核心是一台4.0升M480T V8双涡轮引擎，除了功率达到720马力，扭矩也达到568磅-英尺（约合767牛米）。车厂宣称，该引擎超过40%的部件都是全新的，这意味着只有60%的部件是原来3.8升V8引擎的。与引擎搭配的是七速SSG变速器。该车还配备了Proactive Chassis Control主动底盘控制系统，新的悬挂（仍采用独立自适应减震），并对碳陶瓷刹车盘进行了升级。

 

McLaren 720S is all about aerodynamics and big horsepower

McLaren brought its new 720S to Geneva this week to show off the first direct model replacement in its entire history.

 

720 horsepower. 0-60 in 2.8 seconds. 0-124 in 7.8 seconds. 124-0 in 4.6 seconds. Much better, right? McLaren claims it'll do a standing quarter mile in 10.3 seconds.

 

It's also lighter than its predecessor (the 650S) and, McLaren claims, more "dynamically capable." Like its predecessor, its core is a carbon fiber monocoque which allows the 720S to weigh in at only 2,829lbs dry.

 

The beating heart of the 720S is a 4.0-liter, twin-turbocharged M480T V8. In addition to its 720 horsepower, it produces 568lb-ft of torque. McLaren claims more than 40% of the engine is entirely new parts content, meaning just shy of 60% of the old 3.8L V8's componentry remains. Putting that power to the ground is a seven-speed SSG.

 

The 720S also boasts a new generation of its Proactive Chassis Control, a new suspension (still featuring independent adaptive dampers, of course), upgraded carbon ceramic brakes and an all-new design--one that has slightly more exotic details than its predecessor.
