But the news of the 2013 model does not stop here.... The transmission was revised with the different modes of operation of the SSG gearbox 7-speed sequential. In addition to the actions of the engine, the McLaren MP4-12C will have some aesthetic touches, when we see the open road next year.

One might expect even more power, but due to regulations of the FIA GT3 class, the twin-turbo V8 engine limited 'only' to 500 hp.

A large work was carried out in reducing weight. The adoption of a sequential gearbox 6-speed has allowed to lose 80 kg in comparison with the MP4-12C 7-speed road. Moreover, improvements in the suspension are derived from Formula 1, such as electronics or seats along its aerodynamics, such as P12. But we were so patriotic in those colors ...
