McLaren 720S Review | McLaren's new Ferrari-rivalling supercar tested on road and track | Autocar

Published on 2 May 2017. This is the new McLaren 720 S, McLaren's Super Series sports car, which replacemes the 650 S and will go head-to-head with the Ferrari 488 GTB. And? And it has lots of power; some 720hp (710bhp) from its 4.0-litre, twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which drives the rear wheels via a seven-speed gearbox. The 720 S is 90% new inside and out, with a brand-new carbon fibre passenger cell, revised hydraulic suspension and an engine that's 200cc bigger and some 40% new inside. Join Autocar's Matt Prior as we test the 720 S on road and track, and give you a full technical run down of this world class supercar. New videos are uploaded to Autocar each week.

Mini E: ultimate electric hot hatch? Full road test // Jonny Smith CarPervert
  • Published 2nd March 2020. The Mini E - or Mini Cooper se to be precise - is Mini's first mass produced electric car. They did make a batch of experimental Mini One EVs in 2009, and whilst they had excellent performance the batteries took up the whole back seat area. 10 years later the latest UK-built British icon has been gifted the electric powertrain of its BMW i3 cousin and a few minor trim tweaks to provide a quicker 0-62 than its Honda e arch rival, as well the Peugeot e208, revised VW e-Up! and Renault Zoe. With a WLTP range of 145 miles, however, is it enough to be a convincing purchase against the other electric hatches in this sub £30,000 supermini class? Testing the new leccy Mini in the real world is vital, so I drove it on a suitably Mini adventure from Oxfordshire to Swindon to meet up with a classic Austin Rover Mini that can be ordered with fully electric conversion. The Swind-E is the product of Swindon Powertrain, a company who balance hyper e-bike manufacture with BTCC touring car engine building, and soon an off-shelf e-axle electric motor conversion kit to purchase. I will be driving the Swind-E in detail on another episode of CarPervert, as well as a full factory tour of Swindon Powertrain, who in their 50 year lifespan have been involved in F1, WRC and even the forthcoming Lotus Evija EV hypercar project.
