McLaren Automotive has collaborated with California-based industrial digital manufacturing company Divergent Technologies, Inc (Divergent) to deliver advanced suspension hardware designed and engineered for its latest supercar, the McLaren W1.

Launched earlier this month, the McLaren W1 is the ground-breaking successor to two of the greatest supercars ever – the McLaren F1 and P1™ - and has been created according to the McLaren ethos of class-leading performance. The new McLaren W1 features Formula 1-inspired front suspension which is mounted directly into the Aerocell carbon fibre monocoque.

The company's innovative methods of designing and manufacturing have allowed McLaren's engineers to rapidly iterate designs to progress development of the supercar's groundbreaking structural suspension components, which have contributed to the W1's superior vehicle performance and driver engagement.

'We are thrilled to have partnered with Divergent, a company that shares McLaren's dedication to innovation in manufacturing and engineering. This cutting-edge technology has enabled us to develop more complex suspension structures in the McLaren W1, which enhance the driving experience for our customers and support McLaren's mission to continually push the boundaries of performance.'
