McLaren Confirms 570S Name for First Sports Series Model, Shows New Teaser

McLaren has officially confirmed that the first model from its Sport Series family will be called the 570S Coupé, as a recent report anticipated.

The automaker has also confirmed that the name of the car gives away the power output of the mid-mounted V8 engine, which develops 570PS (562hp). The two-seater coupe will have a carbon fiber structure, possibly using the same carbon fiber monocoque as the 650S.

McLaren also said it will display its three tier model strategy together in New York for the first time. The company says every Sports Series model will share its DNA with the Super Series and Ultimate Series that sit above it in the lineup.

Along with this new information, McLaren has released a new teaser photo which reveals a small part of the car’s side that proves the importance of aerodynamics on the new model. We’ll learn more about the car (and hopefully see it in its entirety) as we get closer to the 570S Coupé’s debut at the New York Auto Show on April 1.
