MCLAREN 600LT SPIDER WILL DO 196 MPH WITH THE TOP DOWN

MCLAREN 600LT SPIDER WILL DO 196 MPH WITH THE TOP DOWN
McLaren has revealed the 600LT Spider, the fifth car to carry the Longtail name. Prices for this 592-hp beauty start at $256,500.

 Just like the coupe, the Spider features a 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 engine pumping out 457 lb-ft of torque. McLaren estimates the convertible will do 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds, an identical time to the coupe. Hitting 124 mph should take 8.4 seconds, or 0.2 second slower than the coupe. Top speed is 201 mph with the roof up, or 196 mph with it down.

 McLaren says the Spider retains the structural rigidity of the coupe thanks to its carbon-fiber MonoCell II chassis. It needs no additional structural strengthening, and therefore is only 110.2 pounds heavier than the coupe for a dry weight of 2,859.4 pounds. Despite the 600LT Spider being a convertible, its fixed rear wing makes the same amount of downforce as the coupe's: 220.5 pounds at 155 mph.

Drivers can operate the three-piece hardtop with the push of a button. It can be raised and lowered at speeds up to 25 mph. There is also a wind deflector that can be adjusted separately from the roof. Open up this deflector and you get to really enjoy the sweet soundtrack coming from the top-exit exhausts.

 Inside the cabin, the McLaren 600LT Spider features familiar Alcantara trim and carbon-fiber racing seats from the P1 as standard. There are plenty of options, including the MSO Clubsport Pack, which includes Super-Lightweight carbon-fiber racing seats, carbon fiber interior accents, titanium wheel bolts, and gloss visual carbon-fiber front fender vents. This package will set you back a whopping $22,090. On the configurator that is now live, you can choose from 29 exterior paint options and multiple interior color themes. You can also delete the audio and climate control systems if you really want to save weight. All cars are hand-assembled by McLaren in England.

Renault HBC small SUV confirmed to be launched in India in 2020

Renault HBC small SUV confirmed to be launched in India in 2020 The latest development was recently revealed by Venkatram Mamillapalle, Renault India’s new Managing Director. “The mid-term plan is in force and everything goes as per the plan,” he said. We need to have double the share by 2022 with a proper line up (of products) with RBC (Triber) this year and HBC next year. The HBC has been in the rumour mill since 2016, but Renault has remained light-tipped on the progress of the project so far. It will be the final model to come from the Kwid family after the Triber. Like the Triber, it should have an individual design and not be a mere product extension. The Renault HBC should measure no more than 4,000 mm in length, to get taxed at the least possible rate(s) and have economical pricing. Power could come from the turbocharged version of the Kwid’s 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol engine that is said to be offered as an option in the Triber next year.
