The brand new CEO Nick Collins then hinted in a conversation with the British Car Magazine. What the future has in the offing is not yet entirely clear, but according to Collins ‘something with more than two seats’ is certainly in the pipeline.
SUVs as a cow of supercar brands
It would be a logical move for McLaren to venture into SUVs. Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Lotus, Porsche and Even Ferrari The British supercar manufacturer has already preceded. And not without merit. Take the Urus As an example, it has grown in a few years into Lamborghini’s best -selling model ever. And today Porsche is no longer so much a sports car manufacturer, but actually an SUV builder who still sells some sports cars here and there.

Are we going to see a McLaren-SUV?
So it may well be that we will see an McLaren SUV, but it can also be a sedan for example (or go crazy, an MPV). In addition, Collins points out that the two -seater segment is also more diverse than what McLaren now offers. The brand may also experiment with other styles within the segment.

Together with the new owners, he had it adjusted here and there to increase the chance of success. You will also soon also come across NIO technology in McLarens. Who would have thought that? In addition, the McLaren CEO says that it will take over the development speed of Chinese car builders. Maybe that makes the supercar manufacturer in the long run just as successful If the McLaren F1 team is today.
