    But translating this shape to LEGO Technic elements did come with its challenges.

    “Replicating smooth, organic curves and shapes with (mostly) angled LEGO Technic elements is always a balancing act. We have to find solutions that work within the building system without straining the elements.”

    “Where this wasn’t possible, we designed new elements to replicate the authentic McLaren P1 functions, design and details. The advanced gearbox combined with E-mode and hybrid mode system are completely new to LEGO Technic models, so we developed a new shifter drum element and two new gear wheels, including a 45° bone gear, to make them work smoothly. The unique tires and overall curvy features were recreated with the help of creative building techniques, new alloy wheels, wheel arches, panels and a new A-pillar.”

    The result is detailed, complex and unmistakably McLaren, inside and outside.

    The LEGO Technic McLaren P1 set offers a rewarding challenge for adult building fans. It would make a great gift for supercar lovers and McLaren fans, offering a building project to savor and a display piece to cherish.

    So, you’ve seen the car inside and out, now there is only one more question…

    Are you ready to drive it away ?
