    A hybrid McLaren is nothing new for the manufacturer in Woking but this will be their first-ever mainstream model set to replace the Sports Series.

    It is tipped to be revealed around the middle of the year and will make use of a twin-turbocharged V6 as part of a plug-in hybrid powertrain allowing it to travel around 20 miles (32 km) on electricity alone.

    Autocar spoke with CEO Mike Flewitt and although he declined to comment on specifics, he is excited about boosting power and reducing emissions with the hybrid package.

    “We have experience of hybrid systems with cars like the P1, P1 GTR and Speedtail, and that recipe of offering a car that can be both truly economical and thrilling to drive remains our goal,” said Flewitt. “McLaren is all about building the best driver’s cars, and we see opportunities with hybrid, in terms of the instant torque and filling the gaps in the powerband.”

This indicates that the owner has a Mercedes-AMG One hypercar on order. Let's hope it makes its way to SA!

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?
