The McLaren 600LT features a revamped version of McLaren’s 3.8 litre twin turbocharged V8. Equipped with a retuned ECU and a distinctive top-exit exhaust system that reduces back pressure, it churns out 600 PS at 7,500 rpm and 620 Nm of torque from 5,500 to 6,500rpm, resulting in a power-to-weight ratio of 481 PS per tonne. It's paired with a seven-speed automatic dual clutch transmission.
The McLaren 600LT uses of all that carbon, including in McLaren’s trademark MonoCell II monocoque chassis, contributes to a dry weight of just 1,247 kg in the lightest specifications. The rest of the car has been designed to reduce weight and improve its handling characteristics.
Sitting on eight millimetres closer to the ground and riding on a 10 mm wider front track, the 600LT utilises forged aluminium double wishbones and uprights representing a 10.2 kg weight saving. The car’s independent, continuously variable adaptive dampers and anti-roll bars have also been reworked to suit. The engine generates a potent power and is transferred to the rear wheels.

The McLaren 600LT and the “LT” in its name refers to the “Longtail” designation initially bestowed upon a lengthened version of the F1 GTR race car. While the 600LT doesn’t exactly have the stretched rear bodywork of the GTR, it still manages to be 74 mm longer than the McLaren 570S.
It lives and breathes the relentless spirit of its ‘Longtail’ predecessors united by the same singular focus to push performance and driving to the absolute edge. It was created in pursuit of performance-optimized aerodynamics and higher downforce with its elongated carbon fibre bodywork. The McLaren 600LT compete with its rivals Porsche 911 GT2 RS, Ferrari 488 Pista, Lamborghini Huracan and Mercedes AMG GTR Pro
Legendary Control and Ride Quality. One created in conjunction with technical partner Pirelli. The track-focused P ZERO™ Trofeo R has never been available on the Sport Series before and delivers improved grip levels and significantly higher cornering speeds.
Stunning Dynamic Abilities. To create the lightest possible, the MSO Clubsport Pack from McLaren Special Operations features a carbon fibre roof, carbon fibre cantrails, carbon fibre front fender louvres and titanium wheel bolts and an ultra-lightweight wheel are the lightest ever fitted to a Sports Series forged in aluminium alloy and bespoke.
Great Performance. Race-inspired flat-plane crankshaft enables the V8 to be mounted as low as possible to improve agility and handling. The powertrain breathes more freely due to enlarged side air intakes and reduced back pressure from an exhaust system that is even shorter and more extreme.
Not meant for daily drives. The ride quality is undeniably stiff as the car built more for the track than the rigors of daily commuting.
The exterior color of McLaren 600LT are White, Onyx Black, Blade Silver, Mantis Green.
