The latest McLaren track toy has a 5.2-liter V-10 and 829 hp:
The Solus GT’s design remains fairly similar to that of the Vision GT, with windswept bodywork reminiscent of top-flight endurance race cars. Access to the single seat is granted by a theatrical sliding canopy, while the styling is largely dictated by aerodynamics. The Solus is glued to the asphalt thanks to ground-effect tunnels running the length of the car, fed by vents behind the large front splitter and spitting air out the back of the car via a cavernous rear diffuser.
Power comes from a naturally aspirated 5.2-liter V-10, which will pump out more than 829 horsepower and 479 pound-feet of torque while revving to over 10,000 rpm. McLaren is aiming for the Solus to reach a top speed over 200 mph and sprint to 60 mph in under 2.5 seconds. That V-10 motor is unusual for a company that has used some form of twin-turbocharged V-8 in every modern road car its built besides the recently revealed V-6-powered.
