McLaren’s 60th anniversary celebrations will continue into its 60th year with the introduction of a new range of options available on all newly ordered series-production models. A package of 60th Anniversary themed individual features, which includes new exterior and interior visual content paying tribute to McLaren’s capture of motorsport’s unofficial ‘Triple Crown’ achievement, is available on GT, Artura and the all-new 750S supercar.
A key landmark in McLaren’s six-decade history, the completion of the Triple Crown – consisting of wins in motorsport’s three most prestigious races - came 21 years after McLaren recorded its maiden victory in the Indianapolis 500, in 1974. Triumph at the Monaco Grand Prix – a race McLaren has now won 15 times, a record for any Formula 1 constructor – followed in 1984. The momentous achievement was completed in 1995, with the F1 GTR winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans at what was McLaren’s first entry into the iconic endurance race.
Three exterior paint colours, each one a tribute to the victorious cars that won the Triple Crown for McLaren, are available across the series-production road car line-up. Indy Orange is a new solid colour that replicates and modernises the bright orange shade of the 1974 Indy 500 winning M16D. Another new solid colour, Monaco White takes its inspiration from the predominantly white shade of the 1984 Monaco Grand Prix winning MP4/2. The trio of paints is completed by a metallic option called Le Mans Grey, a tribute to the victorious F1 GTR from the 1995 24 Hours of Le Mans.
In combination with these paint options, Triple Crown Stripes are offered. These painted stripes run up the centre of the bonnet and are repeated on the rear wing. This exclusive option will be available to order on 750S models only and will be produced for 60 orders – one for each year of McLaren. A McLaren Triple Crown logo is incorporated at the front, while at the rear each individual year of victory – ‘74, ‘84 and ‘95 – is featured, including intricate artwork. It is finished with a contrasting rear wing underside featuring further Triple Crown branding.
Other exterior enhancements include two new 60th Anniversary brake caliper colours. An Indy Blue paint colour is inspired by the Indianapolis 500 win, colour matched to the blue of the ‘3’ race number worn by the victorious M16D. Le Mans Gold replicates the colour of the brake calipers fitted to the legendary McLaren F1 GTR. The new caliper colours are available on 750S, GT and Artura.
Cars ordered with gloss carbon fibre door mirrors can be further specified with a 60th Anniversary ‘Speedy Kiwi’ logo applied to the mirror casings in Orange or Silver. The logo matches the one on a new dedication plaque exclusively designed for cars equipped with 60th Anniversary options.
60th Anniversary interior options include a painted steering wheel centre line marker finished in Indy Orange, which is available on cars with a carbon fibre steering wheel specified. The steering wheel marker can be complemented by new extended carbon fibre painted gearshift paddles, featuring stripes in the McLaren Triple Crown colours.
All cars ordered with any 60th Anniversary options will be fitted with a new, brushed aluminium bespoke dedication plaque, featuring a 60th Anniversary logo in McLaren Orange. The logo incorporates a ‘60’ within the famous McLaren ‘Speedy Kiwi’, the badge worn by Bruce McLaren’s racing cars. Any 750S ordered with the Triple Crown Stripes will feature a “1 of 60” marking on the dedication plaque, highlighting the rarity of the specification.

Chevrolet has unleashed the unthinkable in the Corvette ZR1. The King of the Hill returns with the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer, mind-bending specs, and iconic design to challenge the world’s best supercars in both coupe and convertible variants.
• Corvette ZR1 features a 5.5L, twin-turbocharged DOHC flat-plane crank V8 engine dubbed the LT7.
• The LT7 engine produces 1,064 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and 828 lb-ft (1123 Nm) of torque at 6,000 rpm, per SAE guidelines — the most power ever from a factory Corvette and the most powerful V8 ever produced in America from an auto manufacturer.
• Corvette ZR1 boasts a GM-estimated top speed of over 215 mph (346 Kph) on the racetrack and will dispatch the quarter mile with a GM-estimated sub-10-second time1.
• Purposeful carbon fiber aero package creates over 1,200 pounds (544 Kg) of downforce at top speed.
• ZR1 revives one of the most iconic styles in Corvette history: the split rear window.
“The team that revolutionized Corvette with a mid-engine architecture took on another challenge: take ZR1 to the next level,” said Scott Bell, vice president, Chevrolet. “Corvette ZR1 is about pushing the envelope with raw power and cutting-edge innovation. From Stingray, to Z06, E-Ray, and now ZR1, the Corvette family continues to elevate with each new iteration — and challenge the best in the world.”
The new 2025 Ram 1500 is now available in the Middle East, featuring an all-new 3.0-liter Hurricane engine family that brings more power, performance, and improved fuel efficiency.
“The new 2025 Ram 1500 brings our customers more: more power, more performance and more fuel efficiency with our all-new 3.0-liter Hurricane engines,” said Chris Feuell, Ram brand CEO – Stellantis. “With a choice of new and proven gas engines or our upcoming electric truck offerings, Ram is built to serve truck buyers everywhere. Our new powertrain offerings add to the unique combination of bold styling, leading-edge innovation and technology, durability and capability Ram customers have come to know and love.”
The automotive world is abuzz with the announcement that Lanzante, the renowned vehicle specialist known for transforming track-focused machines into road-going marvels, is set to convert the Red Bull RB17 hypercar into a street-legal version. This ambitious project aims to bring Adrian Newey’s V-10 beast from the racetrack to the public roads, and while the challenge is daunting, Lanzante's track record suggests they are up for it. The Red Bull RB17, designed by the legendary Adrian Newey, is a testament to cutting-edge engineering and performance. The track-only version of the hypercar weighs a mere 1,984 pounds, making it lighter than a Mazda MX-5 Miata ND. Yet, despite its featherweight design, it boasts a staggering 1,200 horsepower. This immense power allows it to lap Silverstone a second quicker than a Formula 1 car, according to recent simulations.
