Project CARS Welcomes McLaren Automotive - PC PS3 X360 WiiU


Five Iconic McLaren Sports cars To Be Included in WMD-Powered Title


Slightly Mad Studios are very excited to announce the newest addition to Project CARS as McLaren Automotive joins the expanding list of manufactures represented in the studio’s upcoming WMD-powered racing title.

Thanks to the efforts of SMS partner Andy Marshall of Racetek Simulators, players will be able to experience five of McLaren’s most successful & sought after sports cars in Project CARS.


Part of the McLaren Group, McLaren Automotive creates high-performance vehicles equipped with Formula One technology. McLaren sports cars have enjoyed tremendous success on and off the race track, clinching various awards, championships and accolades ever since the company’s foundation in 1989.

Project CARS will allow everyone to experience the long way McLaren has come, starting with the 1994 McLaren F1. The company’s first road car made the Guinness Book of World Records as “World’s Fastest Production Road Car”, hitting 391 kph of top-end speed thanks to its mighty BMW V12 engine.


The F1’s speed translated to on-track success quickly as McLaren won the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans and made a big impact on GT racing with the F1 GTR race car that was campaigned around the world by various customer teams.

16 years later, McLaren picked up where they left off with a brand new road car, the McLaren 12C. Like its predecessor, the 12C set a new benchmark across the board, earning the car the “ 2012 Car of the Year” & “Best Supercar” awards.
Once again, a successful road car also bred a great racing machine as the McLaren 12C GT3 has been successfully racing in some of the world’s most competitive racing series and endurance racing events since 2012.

Completing the selection of McLaren cars in Project CARS is the company’s newest brainchild – The McLaren P1 plug-in hybrid supercar.
