Company doesn't say if it beat the Porsche 918 Spyder
McLaren has released a stunning video of theP1 lapping the Nürburgring Nordschleife.
The company declined to say whether or not the car beat the Porsche 918 Spyder's time of 6 minutes and 57 seconds but they confirmed the P1 "achieved its one remaining performance target" by lapping the Green Hell in less than seven minutes.
As a refresher, the P1 has a twin-turbo 3.8-liter V8 engine and an electronic motor that develops 179 HP (132 kW) and 192 lb-ft (260 Nm) of torque. This enables the supercar to have a combined maximum output of 916 HP (674 kW) and 663 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque. The impressive specs allow the supercar to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than three seconds and hit an electronically-limited top speed of 350 km/h (217 mph).
