In a groundbreaking collaboration, McLaren Automotive and the LEGO Group have created a life-size, drivable replica of the iconic McLaren P1™, made entirely from LEGO Technic elements.

This unique vehicle, crafted with an impressive 342,817 pieces, was put to the test by McLaren Formula 1 driver Lando Norris as he completed a thrilling lap around the historic Silverstone Circuit.

The life-size LEGO Technic McLaren P1™ weighs approximately 1,220 kg and features fully functional steering, marking a first for LEGO big builds that allows a model to navigate corners on a racetrack. This extraordinary creation was the result of 8,344 hours of hard work by a dedicated team of 23 specialists from both the LEGO and McLaren teams.

It is powered by an electric motor comprised of LEGO Technic Function batteries and features eight motor packs, each made up of 96 LEGO Power Function motors. In total, the vehicle showcases 768 LEGO motors that emulate the performance of the original McLaren P1™ V8 engine.
