Overall Rating
Priced at around $300,000, the 720s is nowhere close to being cheap or affordable. It is something you’ll have to think about before putting your money down. But if you can and if you do, you would not be disappointed.
Have you ever thought about buying a supercar that can do 200 miles per hour in a flash and tackle corners with ease as well? Have you ever thought about buying a spaceship? Have you ever thought about buying a Mclaren 720S? Well, you cannot buy a spaceship but you can buy something that looks like one. The Mclaren 720S is probably as close as you can get to buy an actual spaceship.
For 2020, the McLaren 720S continues to sport an enlarged 4.0L Twin-Turbo V8 rated at 710 hp and capable of doing 0-60 mph in 2.8 seconds. It also packs a modified carbon tub which is dubbed as the ‘Monocage II” and a redesigned cockpit.
The Mclaren 720s is offered with different options and packages. Which option to go for totally depends on the customer’s needs and requirements. If one likes performance, Mclaren offers the performance package. If one wants to go for comfort, there’s a Luxury package on offer that makes the interior just that more comfortable. And for those who seek a mix of both, there a Base 720s available as well.

The best part is that this engine feels stress-free throughout the rev range. Mclaren has made sure that there is no turbo lag and the 720 takes off as soon as you put the pedal to the metal.
The Mclaren 720S manages the 0-60 dash in a mind-numbing 2.7 seconds. Yes, 2.7 ticks from the factory. That is the definition of blisteringly fast. The Mclaren 720s breaches the quarter-mile mark in a very impressive 10.1 seconds.
