McLaren Plans to Go Full Hybrid by 2025
The manufacturer will also introduce ‘augmentation’ assistance.
McLaren has announced that it plans on every vehicle in its lineup being a hybrid model by 2025. There will also be eighteen additional models, a huge jump for the 6 currently available. Some of the cars will be completely new models while others will be derivatives of existing vehicles.
In addition to this news, CEO Mike Flewitt also spoke about driver assistance technology, saying it would be “augmentation” instead of “autonomy,” saying that the features would be “designed in for safety, legislation, and emissions.” COO Jens Ludman expanded on this idea, saying that the idea is that it’s like “having a virtual coach who could show you how to improve on a track.”
