McLaren has confirmed the McL 820 as its next series-production supercar, arriving in 2027 to succeed the outgoing 750S, itself an evolution of the 720S launched in 2017.

The new car will produce 820hp, though McLaren has yet to reveal its powertrain and whether it will use a hybrid system.

Rather than unveiling the car, McLaren revealed its name on a giant camouflaged kiwi statue in London, referencing founder Bruce McLaren’s New Zealand heritage.

The McL prefix introduces a new naming convention linking the company's road and racing divisions. Further details are promised next year.

Neil has been checking out the first new Audi A2 e-tron in Ireland, resplendent in this gorgeous shade of oh-so-nineties ‘Intense Blue.’ The range stretches to better than 600km depending on the battery and version, and it’s picking up styling cues from the much-loved nineties original. Teeny-tiny aero door handles are neat, and the starting price is just over €39,000. Upgrade, homage, or pastiche?

Jaguar has unveiled the first ‘Chromatic Moments’ car at the British Museum's Red Ball, where the Type 01 made its dynamic debut.

Just 60 examples will be produced worldwide, each hand-painted and individually finished with touches including laser-etched signatures. London Red is claimed to be inspired by the city's red-brick buildings, architecture and galleries, while celebrating 90 years of Jaguar.
