# Reimagined Supercars Kevin Andersson's Mclaren F1 Reimagined Concept Updates the Iconic Layout By Amy Duong | Published 2026-04-14 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kevin-andersson References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2026/04/13/mclaren-f1-concept-shows-what-the-iconic-supercar-could-look-like-in-2026/)  [McLaren](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mclaren-570s-concept) [F1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lamborghini-f1-concept) Reimagined is a concept by Kevin Andersson that reinterprets the original supercar using contemporary materials and engineering references. The design retains the central driving position and three-seat layout, preserving a defining feature of the 1990s model. An exposed carbon fibre monocoque forms the structural base, with visible mounting points for suspension components inspired by [Formula](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solus-gt) One systems. The proportions follow the original with a long front section, cab-forward stance, and pronounced rear volume. The exterior introduces recessed horizontal headlights, large side air intakes, and upward-opening doors that follow the same motion as the original. Aerodynamic elements include a front splitter, rear diffuser, and a deployable rear wing integrated into the body. Inside, the cabin uses a full carbon structure with a curved digital display spanning the dashboard and two passenger seats positioned slightly behind the driver.
