McLaren Automotive will run an anniversary programme of customer engagement and retailer activities in 2025 to celebrate the significant and enduring appeal of the six McLaren LT models, the first of which was unveiled in March 2015 at the Geneva International Motor Show.

The McLaren LT was introduced with the 675LT, a limited-volume coupe based on McLaren’s series-production 650S supercar that took inspiration from the McLaren F1 GTR ‘Longtail’ created to sharpen the racing edge of the McLaren F1 GTR – and which won its class in the Le Mans 24 Hour race in 1997. The 675LT quickly established the modern-day McLaren LT philosophy; driver engagement, track-focused dynamics, minimised weight, optimised aerodynamics and increased power, all wrapped up in a car produced in restricted numbers.

A further five McLaren LT models have followed, with the 675LT, 600LT and 765LT all produced in coupe and convertible Spider form. The most recent to come to market was the 765LT Spider, in 2021. All are recognised for the elevated levels of performance and pure expression of supercar excellence that are rooted in McLaren’s racing pedigree, as well as the enhanced desirability that befits their limited availability.

The Celebrate LT initiative is tailored to appeal to a community of McLaren customers that are among the most committed advocates of the McLaren supercar ethos. Exclusive new LT content has been produced using the cars that McLaren retains in its Heritage Fleet, and this will initially be available only to LT owners. During 2025, customers and fans alike will be invited to participate in activities hosted by McLaren retailers worldwide, such as open days, meet-ups and exclusive McLaren owner drive events, to mark the ten years since inception and with that the six iconic cars that wear the LT badge.

“For a decade, LT has embodied the pure, uncompromising performance that defines the very essence of McLaren. Relentlessly focused on delivering true driver engagement, every LT pushes the boundaries of weight reduction, aerodynamics, and power, to create an experience that is as thrilling as it is visceral. Loved by the most passionate McLaren drivers, LT is more than just a name – it’s a statement of intent for those who demand the purest expression of performance.” – Henrik Wilhelmsmeyer, Chief Commercial Officer, McLaren Automotive
