McLaren Automotive

McLaren Automotive is a British automaker that focuses on supercar design, development, and manufacturing.

McLaren Cars was founded in 1985, eventually releasing one supercar, the McLaren F1 in 1992. Between 1994 and 2010, McLaren Cars was registered as a "dormant company".

The founder Bruce McLaren was a Formula One racing driver. He also founded a racing team in his name that went on to become a legend in Formula One.

In 2010, McLaren Automotive was relaunched, and McLaren Racing was spun off.

McLaren divides its sports cars into Sports, Super, and Ultimate series. Vehicles in the first two are named after their engine output in PS plus a type designation: C for club, S for sport, GT for grand tourer, and LT for longtail.
