New McLaren MP4-12C Spider with Retractable Hard Top Officially Revealed
The MP4-12C has finally lost its top as McLaren Automotive presented the second addition to the family in the guise of the new Spider model that comes equipped with a retractable hard top, much like one of its chief rivals in the mid-engine supercar segment, the Ferrari 458 Italia Spider.
The metal roof is operated using a switch in the lower section of the centre console and takes less than 17 seconds to raise or lower. McLaren points out that unlike many other convertible models of its kind, the Spider's roof can be operated whilst the car is moving at speeds of up to 30 km/h (19mph).
Right behind the passenger compartment is a rear windscreen that can double as a wind deflector and which may also be electronically lowered and raised. To improve safety, a roll over protection system has been incorporated into the rear buttresses.
