McLaren 765LT hits German Autobahn for High-Speed Run

Take a look at the supercar from the driver’s perspective.

For car enthusiasts who are looking for speed, the German Autobahn is a magnet. YouTube has countless videos of high-speed runs on public roads. A new video by Novitec Group shows a sinisterly black McLaren765LT doing exactly that.

This appears to be a stock McLaren . It is called “original” in the video title, even though Novitec offers performance and visual enhancements For the model. We do not see any of these in the example. The 765LT is powered by a twin-turbocharged, 4.0-liter V8 motor that produces 755 horsepower (56 kilowatts) as well as 590 pound-feet (890 Newton-meters). It is paired with a seven speed dual-clutch gearbox, which shifts 15% faster than the one found in the 720S. According to the automaker the 765LT can reach speeds of 62 miles an hour (100 km per hour) in just 2.8 seconds.


The McLaren’s power was evident on the busy Autobahn, and the video gave a unique perspective behind the wheel. It felt as though you were in the driver’s chair, with the camera pointing out above the dash. The car enveloped you. It is not easy to read the digital speedometer in parts. However, it does reach 300 kph (184 MPH) when it passes traffic on an orderly road.

It is always interesting to see a supercar on a public road, as that is not something most people have the luxury of enjoying. As the McLaren approaches, other drivers respectfully move to the left lane. This allows it to continue its high speed run without any delay. Although the 755 horsepower of the 765LT is enough to propel the car down the Autobahn, those who want more power could choose Novitec’s upgrades for 855 HP (629 kW).
