McLaren Special Operations (MSO) has confirmed details of the world’s first Hyper GT, the successor to the famed McLaren F1. Claimed to be the most exquisitely crafted and luxurious road-going McLaren to date, it follows the traditional three-seat layout, with a limited production run of just 106 units, all of which have already been sold.

Details from McLaren Automotive
On the announcement of the project, McLaren Automotive Chief Executive Officer, Mike Flewitt, stated: “BP23 will borrow the three-seat layout with the central driving position made famous by the iconic McLaren F1, and it will be housed in a streamlined, shrink-wrapped carbon fiber body of great elegance. A hybrid powertrain will make it one of the most powerful McLarens created but the car will also deliver high levels of refinement.”

Production and Design
With the design well underway, the output of the Hyper GT has been capped at a special 106 units to mimic the production run and pay homage to the McLaren F1. Future owners will work alongside MSO to create their own bespoke cars.
Innovative Features
Just like the McLaren F1 and all of McLaren Automotive’s road and track cars, the Hyper GT will feature dihedral doors. However, for BP23, the doors will be powered for the first time with apertures extending into the roof.
What's Next?
While further details of McLaren’s newest model will be released closer to the launch date, enthusiasts can look forward to groundbreaking advancements in design and performance.
