Granted it may be in the camo vinyl finish that most manufacturers use when testing, however this is evidently the McLaren P1 being tested. Naturally, McLaren has some very specific words to offer, and to this end here they are:
A dedicated team of McLaren engineers, technicians and racing drivers are running a fleet of XP-codenamed vehicles, around the clock in some of the most demanding conditions, and on roads and circuits across the globe. The rigorous testing procedures for the McLaren P1™ have seen the development team working closely with McLaren Automotive technology partners on bespoke components and developments, including Akebono on a highly-efficient braking system, Pirelli on high performance tyres and Mobil 1 on leading cooling, lubrication and hydraulic fluids. As all these activities converge on the final specification, a remarkable vehicle is emerging. The McLaren P1™ is set to deliver truly outstanding road and track dynamics and performance, coupled with levels of driveability and refinement unprecedented in such a supercar.
I’m sure that you’ll agree it sounds like it should be quite some animal. The McLaren P4-12C is one of the best riding cars in the world so something even more special is sure to be a rare treat. I’ve absolutely no doubt, as at the time of writing, most motoring journalists cannot wait to get behind the wheel of this vehicle. Certainly it will a contender for ‘Car Of The Year 2013’. I’d put a wager on that!
