McLaren 570S Spider buyers can now take advantage of the new Track Pack options package that brings together a range of practical and visual features to enhance race track experiences. The 570S Spider Track Pack, which can be specified only on new vehicle orders, is designed to deliver enhanced levels of driver engagement for owners interested in occasional track days, while still maintaining the daily usability of the McLaren Sports Series convertible. In addition to reducing vehicle weight by more than 33 kg (72 kbs) over the standard 570S Spider, the Track Pack adds a louder, more sporty exhaust note and sharpens the appearance of the Spider.

“The 570S Spider has already gained a reputation as an extremely accomplished luxury sportscar that is hugely enjoyable to drive on a circuit,” said Jolyon Nash, Executive Director, Global Sales and Marketing, McLaren Automotive. “This new Track Pack brings together in one package design features, specification and popular practical options desirable for track use, further increasing choice for Spider buyers and at the same time offering them even better value.”

The cockpit of a Track Pack car will benefit from one of six lightweight By McLaren Designer Interior Sport Design themes in Alcantara which can be chosen by the buyer. Carbon Fibre Race Seats, which deliver a 13kg (28 lb) saving over the standard Sports Seats, and a Carbon Black Alcantara Steering Wheel look and feel more track oriented, the results of which can be captured using the factory-fitted McLaren Track Telemetry (MTT) system that provides lap times and sector splits as well as post-drive analysis and data-logging with graphical plots of vehicle speed and time deltas.

Track Pack specification also includes a Carbon Fibre Interior Upgrade that sees door inserts, tunnel sides, extended gearshift paddles, steering wheel spokes, door and lower centre console switch packs and the McLaren IRIS infotainment surround finished in the lightweight material.

Exterior features include a Dark Palladium Roof and Super-Lightweight 10-Spoke Forged Alloy Wheels in Stealth Finish, with Pirelli P-ZERO Corsa tires which reduce weight by 15 kg (33 lbs) over the standard wheel. Other options in carbon fibre are available if further weight reduction is desired. A Sports Exhaust with Stealth Exhaust Finisher, which is both lighter and louder than a standard Sports Series system, completes the Track Pack.

Introduced in the summer of 2017, the McLaren 570S Spider is now the most popular of the McLaren Sports Series cars. Powered by a 3.8-litre, twin-turbocharged V8 engine producing up to 570 horsepower, the Spider is the lightest car in its class with the highest power-to-weight ratio. The higher rear spoiler first seen on the 570S Coupe Track Pack model, which accounts for more than ten percent of 570S Coupe sales, is standard on the 570S Spider, generating additional downforce to enhance aerodynamic balance at faster race track speeds.
