Carrying the legacy of the 765LT’ Longtail’ coupe unveiled last year, McLaren‘s latest addition is the brand’s most potent ever convertible supercar – the McLaren 765LT Spider.
Limited to just 765 cars globally, the McLaren 765LT features the core attributes intrinsic to any McLaren Longtail and is now McLaren's most powerful-ever convertible supercar.

“As we continue to build the LT sub-brand with the introduction of the new 765LT Spider, it’s clear that our customers are increasingly attracted to the Longtail supercar proposition of exhilarating, extreme performance and limited availability. With all 765 examples of the 765LT coupe sold, it’s no surprise that as we publicly announce our new LT Spider, production capacity for 2021 is already filled.”, said Mike Flewitt, Chief Executive Officer McLaren Automotive.

The 765LT Spider is only 80kg lighter than the 720S Spider and features the coupe’s dynamic and aerodynamic DNA without any structural compromise. The electrically operated, one-piece carbon fibre Retractable Hard Top (RHT) enables open-top motoring in just 11 seconds. It operates at speeds of up to 50km/h, bringing the dramatic soundtrack of the quad-exit titanium exhaust system into the cabin to take driver engagement into another dimension. The supercar also features LT’s bespoke Ultra-Lightweight forged alloy wheels, each fitted with Pirelli P Zero™ Trofeo R tyres specially developed for the 765LT. Titanium wheel bolts are also standard fit.

The remaining four ‘By McLaren’ themes offer a luxurious alternative to Alcantara®, featuring Carbon Black soft-grain leather with contrasting stitching in McLaren Orange, Situs Grey, Carmine or Kingfisher Blue. All the ‘By McLaren’ interiors can be specified, at no extra cost, with a 12 o’clock stripe on the Alcantara® steering wheel in McLaren Orange, Burnt Orange, Blue or Dove Grey.

The 765LT Spider features a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine that produces 765PS and 800Nm of torque, making the supercar a best-in-class power-to-weight ratio of 598PS-per-tonne. The beast can sprint 0-100km/h in just 2.8 seconds with the top speed of 330km/h (205mph).

“A McLaren’ Longtail’ is engineered to deliver not only incredible performance but also the highest levels of driver engagement. The 765LT coupe set new benchmarks in maximising a driver’s connection with the car and the Spider builds on this, adding the additional engagement factor of open-air driving to give direct access to the scintillating sound of the titanium exhaust – a pleasure that thanks to the electrically operated rear window can also be enjoyed with the retractable roof in place.”, Jamie Corstorphine, Director of Product Strategy, McLaren Automotive.
With prices starting from £310 500*, the most powerful McLaren convertible yet, 765LT Spider, is limited to only 765 examples.
