McLaren Jakarta introduced the new McLaren 720S on Wednesday at its showroom in Pacific Place, South Jakarta.
Attended by customers and car enthusiasts from inside and outside the capital city, the launch was particularly aimed at increasing the British brand's growth in the Indonesian market.
"Indonesia is a significant market in the world of McLaren. We are extremely pleased to unveil this latest addition to our Super Series line up," said the firm's managing director George Biggs in a press release.
Globally debuted at the 87th Geneva International Motor Show in March, the McLaren 720S boasts lighter, faster and more dynamic capability compared to its McLaren 650S predecessor. The new 4.0-liter M480T engine powering the 720S, "which has 41 percent new part content compared to the 3.8-liter engine that continues to feature in the McLaren Sports Series," is said to be able to generate a maximum of 720PS and 770Nm of torque. Drivers can also expect to enjoy an "astonishing performance", including "standstill to 100 kilometers per hour that takes less than three seconds and, just five seconds later, the car can pass the 200 km per hour mark on its way to a maximum speed of 341km per hour".
