‘Developing Real Supercar’ is how McLaren titled his latest video behind Hypercar W1. Given a good amount of these will end in climate controlled collections with zero miles, it is great to see that the new hybrid hypercar is pushed to its limits into all conditions. Those W1 customers who want to use their car throughout the year are certainly encouraged that, if this is something to happen.
Check out the Pirelli winter tires, for example, the new P zero Winter 2 installed on wheels already seen in the W1. The McLaren will not require another set of winter tires, basically, for those who want to use it in the coldest months, only an exchange of tires. Presumably, obtaining winter tires in the w1 sizes must have required McLaren to ask Pirelli very well to classify them.
The winter test in this video was to test traction and stability control systems; If they work on the ice, they will work when a bit wet and unleashes too much of 1,275 hp. Do not forget that the W1 is also purely rear traction, so the assists will be occupied. But they cannot feel that the emotion is becoming extinguishing; It is a very fine line between staying safe and spoiling the fun. Hence the hours that slide in the ice where, of course, the W1 looks absolutely brilliant. It also slips through the surface also in the best tradition of McLaren.
The time in the Arctic, which recently concluded, also saw that the motor train was tested. ‘The HV battery stress test, the gearbox and the new MHP-V8 engine extremely cold push the durability and performance to the ends’ read the press release. Therefore, there will be no fear of customers, it would have to be assumed, when taking out a McLaren W1, even if the ambient temperature is not ideal. We wait for those videos in due time …
