It's been almost 15 years since McLaren started building road cars for the second time. And it has managed to put out some amazing performance vehicles, with incredible levels of power and handling. But not one of them has managed to match, or even come close to the most impressive accomplishment of the McLaren F1 they are chasing.
McLaren Automotive is a manufacturer of sports cars, supercars, and hypercars based in Woking in the United Kingdom. It was launched by Ron Dennis as a spin-off from the McLaren F1 team, and as such, is named after Bruce McLaren. It is famed for its F1-inspired development of high-performance sports cars, supercars, and hypercars like the F1 - the first official roadgoing project from the automaker - and more recent projects like the P1 and McLaren Senna. McLaren was recently purchased by the Mumtalakat Holding Company, a sovereign wealth fund of the Kingdom of Bahrain.
