McLaren 750S Is Heading to the Supercar Graveyard in 2027Marc Urbano - Car and DriverMcLaren has announced that the 750S will end production next year, though it's still available to order.Debuting for the 2024 model year, the 750S was a successor to the 720S, which also spawned the track-focused 765LT.The McLaren 750S is powered by a 740-hp twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 that sent the rear-wheel-drive supercar to 60 mph in 2.3 seconds in our testing.Well, it's about that time. After a decade since the original McLaren 720S launched as the British brand's new mid-engine V-8-powered supercar, its successor is ready to ride into the sunset. McLaren today announced that the 750S will stop being built sometime in 2027. But don't worry, there's still time to order a final copy before the curtain falls.Marc Urbano - Car and DriverWhen it first arrived for the 2017 model year, the McLaren 720S replaced the 650S. While both cars featured a twin-turbocharged V-8, the 720S brought a sizable power increase, with output rising from 651 to 710 horsepower, and its stronger structure still managed to keep the car's curb weight relatively light (a 2018 720S coupe we tested tipped our scales at 3161 pounds). After a roughly five-year run, which included spawning the track-focused 765LT, the 720S was discontinued and succeeded by a newer, more powerful version.The current 750S debuted for the 2024 model year with about 30 percent new parts and an enhanced twin-turbo 4.0-liter V-8 that unlocked an extra 30 ponies. McLaren also said the 750S shed as much as 66 pounds, though a 2024 coupe we tested (review below) weighed 3206 pounds. Still, it would become the quickest rear-wheel-drive car we've tested—until being dethroned by the Corvette ZR1. In likely our last go-round with the 750S, it showed off its extreme performance during our 0–150–0 test (also linked below).McLarenMcLaren's 750S culminates in the limited-production 788HS, which features F1-inspired aerodynamics as well as more lightweight components and a Ram TRX-matching 777 hp. And while we don't yet know exactly what McLaren has planned for a 750S successor, it's reportedly working on a new mid-engine coupe that will slot between the entry-level Artura and the outgoing 750S. Its hybrid powertrain will reportedly feature a twin-turbo V-6 and produce about 810 horsepower. It's expected to cost around $315,000 and be unveiled sometime next year.➡️ Skip the lot.
