McLaren P1 2014 review pictures

The P1 has astonishing levels of grip and performance. 

The P1 is based on a modified version of the MP4-12C's carbon structral tub. 

The P1 takes road-legal performance to a whole new level. 

The McLaren's electric motors will drive the car alone for around seven miles before they run out of charge. 

The cabin is tyically McLaren minimalist with most of the interior being covered in alcantara. 

Visibility inside the cabin is suprinsingly good.

The door handles are hidden underneath the large air intakes, pull the handles nad the door swings open. 

McLaren's 3.8-litre engine now produces 727bhp with the electric motors adding an addtional 176bhp. 

The P1's straight-line acceleration is mind-warping.

The electric power helps deliver insane trottle response and a wider power band. 

Active aerodynamics aid in producing ground-effect suction.

With race mode engaged the P1 sits 50mm lowers and the anti-roll bars and dampers are stiffened. 

The rear wing rises when the car is in race mode to provide extra braking power and increased downforce.
