Description

In this video Top Gear looks at the new McLaren 788HS supercar, a rival for the Ferrari 296 Speciale. It’s the Final Boss of McLaren’s 700-series range after the 720S, 750S and 765LT, and if its HS predecessors are anything to go by, it’ll be like a mini W1 without all the hybrid gubbins! 🚗 McLaren 788HS 🎤 Ollie Kew 🎥 Subscribe to Top Gear YouTube: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear ⏪ Subscribe to Top Gear Classic YouTube: http://bit.ly/SubscribeToTopGear 📖 Subscribe to Top Gear Magazine: https://top-gear.visitlink.me/YeyndO 🎧 Top Gear Magazine Podcast: https://topgear.podlink.to/Podcast ✉️ Top Gear Newsletter: https://www.topgear.com/newsletter-signup 🛍️ Top Gear Shop: https://www.topgear.com/shop Follow Top Gear ⬇️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/topgear/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/topgear TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@topgear X/Twitter: https://x.com/BBC_TopGear This is a commercial channel from BBC Studios.
