Electric Hybrids and automatic sports cars are the latest entrants in the automotive industry.

Among sport cars, the 570S Coupe is one of the lightest cars. Weighting only 1,452 kg, the car has a good fuel economy of 25.5 miles. The new 2019 hybrid model would be a real deal to curb its CO2 emission. The 2019 570S will use Monocell II architecture, which is designed for a hybrid powertrain. Per Mike Flewitt, McLaren’s Chief Operating Officer, the hybrid design is built from a scratch so that it does not have to adapt to the existing chassis of the older models. Mike confirmed that McLaren will use its own autonomous technology through careful selection. Even though he knows that Autonomy is not appealing to customers, but McLaren will bet on capabilities following complete aspects of safety, legislation and emissions. It is known that the car will not be completely automatic, but will have options for self-driving.
