The Original: The Impressive McLaren Elva
The McLaren Elva is an open-top supercar without a windshield designed for maximum driving experience and speed. It belongs to McLaren's Ultimate Series generation, produced from 2020 to the present. The striking design of this vehicle comes from chief designer Robert Melville, known for evolving McLaren's distinctive and aerodynamic design. Technically, the McLaren Elva impresses with its 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine generating an astounding 815 horsepower and reaching a top speed of over 200 mph (320 km/h). Thanks to an advanced airflow management system directing airflow over the car, the lack of a roof becomes an advantage in terms of lightweight construction and performance. Its predecessor in the Ultimate Series was the legendary McLaren P1, a hybrid supercar also known for its top-notch performance.

Interesting Facts about the Real McLaren Elva
The McLaren Elva was developed by McLaren Special Operations (MSO), the in-house division for custom customer projects. The name "Elva" harks back to McLaren's past and recalls the open-top race cars of the 1960s. The Elva is known for its revolutionary Active Air Management System (AAMS), which optimally distributes airflow, providing a unique open-air experience. The AAMS essentially creates an invisible windshield by directing airflow over the heads of the occupants. Weighing just 1,198 kilograms (2,641 pounds) due to the extensive use of carbon fiber in the body and seats, it enables exceptional driving dynamics. These technical features make the McLaren Elva a standout representative of Next-Generation supercars and a dream for any car enthusiast.
