McLaren has revealed that the 750S will be discontinued next year, and the British marque is taking final orders for the supercar now. Pricing starts at $365,100. The model has been in the lineup in some form for close to a decade.

The 750S arrived only a few years ago, but its roots date back to 2017, when the 720S debuted. That car was McLaren's second Super Series model, combining lightweight construction with a potent twin-turbocharged V-8, and the formula proved successful enough to spawn further versions.

One of them was the track-only 765LT. Then in 2023 came the 750S itself, which launched as part of McLaren's 2024 model year lineup. It took what worked in the 720S and pushed it further, with a more sculpted body.

Nearly a third of the parts were swapped out for newer components. The result is a car that weighs 2,815 pounds, which is 60 pounds less than the 720S it replaced, and that carries more power than its predecessor.

Its 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V-8 makes 740 hp, which is 30 horses more than the 720S. That is the engine buyers get across the standard car, and it is the basis for the final, more extreme version the marque has prepared.

What the 788HS adds

The final version of the car is the 788HS, announced earlier this summer. It is an exclusive variant with a more aggressive aero package than the supercar it is based on, and it weighs 16 pounds less than the standard 750S.

It also makes 37 hp more. McLaren says it can hit 60 mph from a standstill in two seconds and go on to a top speed of 205 mph.

McLaren 750S

Production of the 788HS is limited to just 200 examples. Half will be coupes and the other half open-top spyders, so each body style is capped at 100 cars. For anyone with a 750S-shaped hole in a collection, the window is now.

The $365,100 figure is the starting price for the 750S. The source material gives no separate price for the 788HS and no closing date for the order book, so how long final orders stay open is not stated.

What replaces it

The replacement is rumored to be an entirely new supercar with a hybrid-assisted V-6 making over 800 hp. It could be unveiled as soon as next year, which would put the reveal close to the end of 750S production.

That would be a clean break from the twin-turbo V-8 that has powered the 720S and 750S. McLaren has not confirmed any of the rumored details, so the engine, output and timing remain unofficial for now.

McLaren is one of eleven marques in our guide to the best British car brands, though it is no longer British-owned: Abu Dhabi's CYVN Holdings bought McLaren Automotive in December 2024. The 750S run is ending under that new owner.

The marque also entered our ranking of the most popular luxury car brands online, alongside Aston Martin and Bugatti, which displaced Cadillac from the top ten. Search interest in the name is there as the 750S winds down.

In our ranking of the most expensive cars in the world, the McLaren Speedtail is listed at $2.25 million. The 750S, from $365,100, is a different proposition: a series-production supercar rather than a limited hypercar.

We follow the marque and its rivals in our coverage of garage news, and the end of a car with a decade-long lineage is the kind of change that usually sends collectors to the order book quickly.

Next is the 788HS, whose 200 cars are the last 750S-based models McLaren has announced, and then the unveiling of the successor, which is rumored for as soon as next year.
