The McLaren 750S takes ahead the car maker’s ‘form follows function’ design philosophy. The car’s styling can best be described as fresh and functional. There is a new front bumper. This diverts the airflow into smaller openings that house slim LED lights. The splitter is now extended and cLaren says it offers aerodynamic balance, which works in tandem with the larger rear wing.

At the back, both the versions of the 750S come with a P1-derived central exhaust. Due to this the car’s designers had to move the active rear wing higher by 2 inches. Other changes at the back include larger air scoops ahead of the rear wheels, new rear bumper, a new rear deck and a new mesh grill.
