Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren - Mercedes Benz All Models

The new suspension can automatically adjust its damping force at each wheel to improve handling, cornering, and ride comfort, depending on the selected suspension setting and road surface. The air suspension system, with three chambers, a sporty spring damper set-up and continuously adjustable damping also takes the ability to individually tailor the driving experience to a new level. This is integrated between the two drives and fully disengages the petrol engine from the drivetrain when in pure electric driving mode or 'sailing' mode (coasting / braking).

The lake is not just for aesthetics — the water is used to cool the building and an on-site wind tunnel used for r&d. A worker joins a carbon-fiber tub to a vehicle chassis.

McLaren engines await new homes. "When [forme...

Mike Flewitt: "I'm not against SUVs. They are just not what McLaren does." WEST SUSSEX, England — McLaren Automotive is planning a powertrain transformation. The British automaker, synonymous with throaty V-8s, is in the early days of exploring a full-electric vehicle that could arrive by 2025. It is part of an ambitious plan to convert McLaren's sports car and supercar fleet to hybrids by 2025 as the auto industry prepares for tighter emission standards around the world. During last month's Goodwood Festival of Speed here, McLaren CEO Mike Flewitt, 56, spoke with Staff Reporter Urvaksh Karkaria about the automaker's electrification plans and global expansion outlook. Q: What's moving McLaren toward an all-hybrid fleet and eventually an all- electric supercar? A: China is very aggressive about emission standards. The world is going in that direction. I think legislation will drive us in that direction, and we need to be ready. The only way we can meet e...
