Wow, Check out the new McLaren P1 GTR's interior

McLaren P1 GTR's interior


McLaren P1 GTR

       
        The new McLaren P1 GTR will feature a steering wheel inspired by the one on Lewis Hamilton's championship-winning 2008 MP4-23 Formula One car.
        First off, you should know that the P1 GTR is an even harder, more powerful version of the already quite powerful ‘standard' P1. It's combination of 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 and electric motor now produces a whopping 986bhp, 83bhp more than the ordinary P1. It looks like something from a Batman movie car.
        We also get a good look at the insides, and that wheel. As mentioned, it takes cues from the MP4-23, with the mode switches in the centre, DRS and IPAS buttons on the top corners, the engine start in the bottom right hand corner and a KITT-style ‘boost' button included too. All in, it looks bloody excellent.
        There are lightweight DTM-style seats with motorsport six-point harnesses - specially setup for each individual driver - with a HANS-approved carbon fibre seat shell. And though it's pretty sparse inside, there's still air-con, a sure necessity.
        Considering just 30 are expected to be built, each costing somewhere in the region of £2 million.
