Luxury car manufacturer McLaren has introduced the 'Elva,' the company's lightest road car to date. The ultra-luxe, two-seater was designed to celebrate the brand's 1960s version of the McLaren 'Elva', which was designed by Bruce McLaren himself.
This roofless supercar features an open-cockpit design with no windows, a bespoke carbon fiber chassis, and unique carbon fiber seats. By removing the car's roof, windows, and windshield, McLaren hopes to create a one-of-a-kind immersive driving experience.
In addition, the new 'Elva' boasts an impressive twin-turbocharged V8 engine that is capable of taking its drivers from 0 to 62 miles per hour in under three seconds. Those interested in buying the car will be delighted to know that McLaren is also offering a wide range of personalization options including interior leathers in various finishes, unique paint jobs, pin-striped wheels, and more.
