Senna

Downforce before decoration

The Senna is a road car designed around a lap time, not a top-speed claim. At 250 km/h it can make 800 kg of downforce, and its glazed lower doors show exactly where the front wheels sit.

Overview

Ayrton Senna's name came with a narrow brief.

McLaren revealed the car in December 2017 and showed it publicly at Geneva in March 2018. Rob Melville's design team let cooling, downforce and visibility set the form; the body could generate 800 kg of downforce at 250 km/h.

All 500 cars were allocated before the public debut and each was assembled in Woking. Period launch material quoted a 340 km/h maximum, while McLaren's current model page states 335 km/h; both agree on 2.8 seconds to 100 km/h and 6.8 seconds to 200 km/h.
