McLaren’s new entry-level sports coupe is called the 570S and it’s designed and priced to go head-to-head with the Porsche 911. The 570S uses a carbon fiber monocoque chassis like its more expensive brothers, the 650S and the P1.
Its turbocharged 3.8-litre V8 motor makes 562 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque. A seven-speed sequential gearbox and comes standard.
The car will go 0-100km in 3.2 seconds and have a top speech of 204 MPH.
To be in the same ballpark as a Porsche 911 Turbo, pricing will need to come in around $200,000 and that is what various outlets are reporting although no exact figure is given by McLaren yet.
