A rare accident recently occurred between the McLaren 600LT sports car and the Mercedes-Maybach GLS ultra-luxury SUV. This incident was captured on video in Yangdong District, Yangjiang City, Guangdong Province, China. |
The driver likely forgot to shift into park before exiting the vehicle and closing the door, causing the McLaren to continuously move forward. As a result, the front end of the 600LT and the rear end of the Mercedes-Maybach GLS sustained significant damage. |
The cause of this incident is still under investigation. In China, the resale value of the McLaren 600LT is approximately $200,000, and the Mercedes-Maybach GLS holds a similar value. |
Introduced in June 2018, the McLaren 600LT is a high-performance “long-tail” variant of the 570S. Following the brand’s design philosophy, this model features an extended overall length, lightweight components, and a more powerful engine. |
This is McLaren’s third model to bear the LT name, following the McLaren F1 GTR Longtail and the McLaren 675LT. Compared to the 570S, the 600LT is 73.7 mm longer. |
The one-piece carbon fiber monocoque chassis and numerous upgraded lightweight components contribute to the 600LT’s lightweight construction, weighing just 1,247 kg—96 kg lighter than the 570S. |
The titanium exhaust system is now positioned under the engine cover, similar to the McLaren Senna. The 3.8L twin-turbo V8 engine produces 600 horsepower and 620 Nm of torque. |
According to the manufacturer, the McLaren 600LT can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.9 seconds and reach a top speed of 328 km/h. |
