McLaren P1 in Toronto

The McLaren P1 stunned during its Canadian debut at the Toronto Auto Show.

The P1 is McLaren’s newest supercar which goes head to head with the Porsche 918 Spyder, Ferrari LaFerrari and Lamborghini Aventador for king of the road.

Only 375 units are intended to be produced so it’s unlikely you’ll be seeing them every day – if ever.

Powering this hybrid monster is a twin-turbocharged 3.8-litre V-8 engine tuned to deliver 727 horsepower and 530 pound-feet of torque along with the electric motor which adds an additional 176 horsepower and 133 lb-ft of torque. Total output is rated at 903 horsepower and 663 pound-feet of torque.
