迈凯轮计划在日内瓦车展发布一款基于675LT的限量版车型。该车由迈凯轮旗下的MSO（McLaren Special Operation）部门开发，称为“MSO HS”(High Sport)车型，不过，该车的最终名称很可能是688。因为该车搭载的3.8升V8双涡轮增压引擎功率为506千瓦/688马力，而675LT的功率为496千瓦/675马力。除了动力更强劲，由于新车采用了更多碳纤维部件，车重还将进一步降低。虽然不知道具体降低多少，但现行版675LT轿跑车重量为1230公斤。另外，新车还将增加一个尾翼以提升下压力。迈凯轮计划生产25辆车，预计所有车辆均为轿跑车，不过如果增加Spider敞篷版也毫不奇怪。虽然这款限量版要等到日内瓦车展才能正式与公众见面，但车厂很有可能会在下周提前在线发布这款车。

 

McLaren to unveil lighter, more powerful 675LT in Geneva

Dutch media is reporting McLaren is cooking up yet another limited-run model, this time based on the sold-out 675LT Coupe.

 

The model is being developed by McLaren Special Operations and is tentatively called “MSO HS” (High Sport), but most likely the final name will include “688”. That’s because the biturbo 3.8-liter V8 engine will be upgraded to 688 PS (678 hp / 506 kW) compared to the 675LT Coupe and Spider which both had 675 PS (666 hp / 496 kW).

 

Aside from packing more punch, the new model is expected to shave off some weight thanks to a more extensive use of carbon fiber. Exact details about the diet are not available at this point, but we can tell you the 675LT Coupe tips the scales at 2,711 pounds (1,230 kilograms) dry. A new rear wing will be added to boost downforce on the rear axle and we also expect some tweaks on the inside.

 

McLaren apparently has plans to make only 25 units of its latest special model and all of them will be coupes. However, we won’t be too surprised if there is going to be a Spider version as well later this year like it happened with the 675LT.

 

Expect to see the latest product of McLaren Special Operations at the Geneva Motor Show which kicks off at the beginning of next month, but an online reveal could occur in the next weeks.
