McLaren Roadster "MP4-12C Spider" begins Middle Eastern tour

The British sports car manufacturer McLaren recently officially unveiled its latest new product in the UAE - the MP4-12C Spider Convertible. The long-awaited model is an open version of the 12C supercar, which is largely identical to it. However, the new 12C Spider, thanks to a successful combination of the convenience of a sedan and the outstanding speed characteristics of a racing car, leaves its competitors far behind.

The hard convertible convertible roof consists of two elements; it can automatically fold or open on the move in 17 seconds at speeds up to 30 km / h.

When folding, the roof is cleaned in a special niche in the trunk, located under two "humps of security" that protect the driver and passenger in the event of a rollover. When the roof is raised, this niche can be used as an additional luggage compartment.

Like its twin coupe, the 12C Spider body is a one-piece carbon monocoque providing the necessary strength as well as excellent aerodynamic properties. To accelerate to a hundred kilometers per hour, the Spider needs only 3.1 seconds (when it is “shod” in Pirelli P Zero Corse tires), and its maximum speed is an incredible 329 km / h!
