McLaren 720S Driver Miraculously Survives Horror CrashLast Saturday, a man driving his McLaren 720S near Munich, Germany lost control and submarined the car under a guardrail.
According to NTV, the 61-year-old man was driving the transition from the A8 to the A995 toward Munich around 8 a.m. Saturday ...
McLaren sold 3,340 cars in 2017, including 1,221 720S models. The performance figures make the 720S sound daunting — a car for race drivers, dangerous in the hands of an amateur — but it's ...
But the McLaren 720S is more than a collection of exotic components and impressive performance numbers. What set this supercar apart when it debuted in 2018 was an ability to beat up other exotics ...

McLaren's been flogging the ol' 3.8-liter V8 for a while and saw fit to give it a spruce in the 720S. This time, it's playing with 4.0 liters and, as before, a pair of turbos.
If you think McLaren's cult-like obsession with performance comes with a litany of public-road drawbacks, think again. The 720S is one of the smoothest supercars I've had the pleasure of piloting.
McLaren says the 720S will sprint to 60 mph in 2.8 seconds, and to 120 mph in 7.8 seconds; with its seven-speed dual-clutch automated gearbox that shifts up to 45 percent quicker than the 650S.
The 720S is the successor to the 650S, which was my favorite McLaren for a while. Before that, my favorite was the MP4 12C. I guess I like every McLaren I’ve driven so far.
