In the World premiere at Geneva Motor Show, McLaren 650S already enjoys a major reception from the public.

The combination of the front aesthetic appearance of the P1 Supercar and rear of the current MP4-12C, with a whole baggage of considerable power, 650 horses, they make the from the 650S model more popular than the MP4-12C, the product of the British manufacturer's entry-level range.

And the starting price of the 650S is 230,000 euros, with almost 20,000 euros more. Created to fill the gap between P1 and MP4-12C, the new 650S seems to be gaining ground on the basic model, stealing from its customers. That is why McLaren MP4-12C production temporarily halted to make way for the applications received by 650S. Richard Molyneux, head of financial operations from McLaren confirmed the supplement of 650S production at the expense of the old model MP4-12C.

"There is a number of customers who want everything what is newer and better. The new 650S is a reaction to this trend and proof of awareness that we have reached. There is no reason now to do our homework, but to put it paper in six years, "said Molyneux.
