Start Reversing Gray Risk-Free

The most dangerous thing about the McLaren 720S is how quickly it convinces you that you're a better driver than you actually are. It hides its ability in plain sight.

At normal speeds, it feels almost too composed. The steering is light but precise. Visibility is excellent thanks to the slim roof pillars. The suspension is compliant enough that you could realistically live with it every day. It doesn’t fight you or demand attention the way older supercars once did.

It feels approachable.

And that’s exactly where things can go wrong.

Because beneath that calm surface sits 710 horsepower waiting for the slightest mistake. The rear wheels receive that power almost instantly, and the margin between control and chaos is smaller than it appears.

This is not a machine that forgives ego.

It’s a track weapon with zero patience for driving error.

Respect it, and the 720S becomes one of the most exhilarating supercars ever built.

Underestimate it, and it can turn a simple drive into one of the most expensive lessons you will ever learn.

Now that we’ve got that out of the way, it becomes easier to understand why the McLaren 720S mattered so much when it arrived.

When McLaren launched it in 2017, on paper this was an update to the Super Series lineup, but in reality, it was a full reset. The company wasn’t trying to refine the 650S anymore. It was trying to redefine what a modern supercar could be.

Speed, usability, design, and engineering all had to move forward together.

The 720S sat at the center of McLaren’s second-generation road car philosophy. The MP4-12C proved the company could build a supercar. The 650S made it sharper. But the 720S was the first time it felt like McLaren was setting the pace, not chasing competitors.

Even the name reflects that confidence.

“720” refers to its 720 metric horsepower output, which translates to 710 horsepower in U.S. measurement. The “S” simply stands for Sport. No dramatic backstory. No forced mythology. Just a number that quietly tells you what the car is capable of.

Simple on paper.

Not simple in execution.

Because everything about this car is built around one idea: reducing the gap between intention and response.

That philosophy shows up everywhere once you understand what you’re looking at.

At the heart of the 720S is a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine.

It produces 710 horsepower and 568 lb-ft of torque, all sent to the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

The numbers are impressive on paper. The amount of control McLaren managed to build around it is just as impressive behind the wheel.

0 to 60 mph happens in 2.8 seconds.

The top speed is 212 mph.

And yet acceleration doesn’t feel chaotic or dramatic. There’s no real sense of delay or effort from the drivetrain, just a direct connection between input and movement.

You press the throttle, and the car responds immediately.

It weighs just 3,128 pounds thanks to McLaren’s carbon-fiber Monocage II chassis, which is a major reason it feels so sharp. Nothing feels heavy or delayed. Everything reacts instantly.

The steering follows the same philosophy. The feedback is immediate and consistent. Among enthusiasts, the 720S is known for having exceptional steering. The limits arrive sooner than expected once you start pushing the car.

And that’s where its character really shows.

Put simply, the 720S is built for efficiency at extreme speed.

It doesn’t feel like it’s trying to impress you.

The 720S is filled with details that remind you this is no ordinary car.

The dihedral doors swing upward and cut into the roof, creating one of the most recognizable silhouettes in the supercar world. Inside, the digital gauge cluster can fold down into a slimmer display, showing only the essential information. It's a small feature, but one that perfectly matches the car's personality.

Visibility is also surprisingly good. The slim roof pillars and large glass area make the cabin feel more open than most mid-engine supercars.

Of course, ownership isn't perfect.

There's no glove box, although there are smaller storage areas throughout the cabin. The backup camera can be frustrating to use since the display sits behind the steering wheel. Maintenance can be expensive, and exotic-car ownership always comes with costs that go beyond the purchase price.

But that's part of the deal.

You're getting a performance supercar, not a daily commuter.

When the 720S was introduced in 2017, prices started at around $288,000. Today, examples can be found anywhere from roughly $220,000 to over $320,000 depending on mileage, condition, and specification.

The car was offered in several forms over its life. The Coupe was the original expression of the platform, focused purely on performance. The Spider added a retractable hardtop while keeping almost all of the Coupe’s speed and structure. Later, the 765LT built on the 720S formula with more power, less weight, and a sharper focus on track performance, sitting as the most extreme evolution of the platform.

That range of versions plays a role in keeping demand strong. Buyers can choose between usability, purity, or outright aggression, all from the same core architecture.

For many enthusiasts, the 720S represents something rare in the exotic car market: a level of performance that still feels outrageous at a price far below what it once cost.

The McLaren 720S quickly became one of the defining supercars of its generation.

Part of that came from the numbers. But a bigger part came from what people saw the car doing in the real world.

The 720S developed a reputation for humiliating cars that cost significantly more. Video after video showed it winning drag races against Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and other exotic cars that many assumed would be faster.

That reputation spread quickly.

The car became a favorite in racing games like Forza Horizon and Need for Speed, while social media helped introduce it to an entirely new generation of enthusiasts. Even people who couldn't name another McLaren usually knew what a 720S was.

Among car enthusiasts, the 720S is often viewed as one of the greatest performance bargains of the modern supercar era. It's brutally fast, surprisingly usable, and capable of keeping pace with cars that sit in entirely different price brackets.

The fact that people still talk about the 720S this way says everything you need to know about the car.

Note: These scores reflect the car as a performance-focused supercar, not a daily driver or comfort-oriented grand tourer.

Performance - One of the fastest and most complete supercars of its era.
Acceleration - Instant response in any gear, not just from launch.
Design / Aesthetics - Functional but still one of McLaren’s most recognizable shapes.
Engineering Innovation - Carbon tub and aero efficiency still feel ahead of rivals.
Steering / Driving Feel - Precise, consistent, and highly regarded by enthusiasts.
Exclusivity - Not rare, but still firmly exotic.
Daily Usability - Usable for a supercar, but limited by maintenance and practicality.(kind of notorious for breaking down in the first 15k to 20k miles)

Performance — 9.9
Acceleration — 10.0
Design / Aesthetics — 9.4
Engineering Innovation — 9.7
Steering / Driving Feel — 9.8

Overall Score - 63.7/70

Note: Country-by-country figures are estimates based on industry data, registration trends, and market distribution. McLaren does not publish official regional sales breakdowns for the 720S.

Total (Estimated Global Production): 15000–16000 (Combined coupe and Spider production)

Look, let me reiterate one thing about the McLaren 720S.

This car is simply incredible.

Every generation gets a few cars that change the conversation. The 720S was one of them.

The McLaren 720S isn't important because it was faster than everything else. It's important because it forced everything else to become faster.

We've seen this story before.

In sports, competition creates greatness. Messi and Ronaldo. LeBron and Steph. Brady and Manning. When the standard rises, everybody else has a choice: improve or get left behind.

The same thing happened here.

The 720S helped define one of the greatest eras of supercars. Years later, manufacturers are still chasing the standard it helped create. It raised expectations for speed, engineering, and what enthusiasts believed was possible from a road car.

And that's a lesson worth remembering.

Success isn't always becoming better than the competition.

It's becoming the thing the competition has to chase.

And if you're ambitious, become the standard rather than simply trying to keep up.
