British luxury car manufacturer McLaren has unveiled a limited-edition McLaren 720 supercar dubbed the 'Daniel Riccardo Edition.' The new vehicle will be released exclusively in Australia and limited to just three total units.
Created as a tribute to the McLaren Formula 1 driver Daniel Riccardo, the brand new supercar has been released just as the pro racer has come off his first win in a McLaren at the Italian Grand Prix. Visually striking, the new vehicles come in a 'Papaya Spark' and 'Burton Blue' colorway, matching the colors used in the McLaren Formula 1 '2021 MCL35M' race car.
In terms of power, the 'Danie Riccardo Edition' boasts a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 capable of taking the car from 0-100Km/h in an astonishing 2.9 seconds while reaching top speeds of 341km/h.
