Transparent-Top Supercars

This McLaren Supercar's Transparent Roof Can Change Its Degree Of Tint

McLaren Special Operations, the bespoke section of the British automaker, has managed to take an already impressive McLaren supercar and add an extra aesthetic and functional twist by installing a gorgeous glass roof outfitted with a range of smart technologies.

This McLaren 570GT Concept vehicle features an 'Electro-Chromic' roof whose tint level can be adjusted by passengers, who can choose five different tint modes ranging from near-clear all the way up to a very dark tint.

Elsewhere, this McLaren supercar still maintains its 3.8-liter, twin-turbo V8 engine and 562 brake horsepower rating.

However the highlight feature of this vehicle is certainly its special glass roof, which adds a touch of class to the car's external appearance while also providing a useful amenity for passengers who want to be able to control lighting environments inside the car.
