How Many McLaren Sennas Were Made?
If you have an affinity for high-end supercars like those sold at Sterling Motorcars, you’ve probably heard of the McLaren Senna. If not, then strap in–you’re in for a wild ride! This limited-edition “hypercar” from McLaren Automotive was introduced in 2018 with staggering performance specs, celebrity endorsers, and exquisite hand-crafted detail. Motortrend called the 2019 model “unlike anything else on Earth” and referred to the ride as “mind-scrambling,” putting to shame other supercars in the same category.
Part of the mystique surrounding the 2019 McLaren is the limited availability—just 500 models were produced, and all new units sold out almost immediately. But don’t despair—pre-owned 2019 McLaren Senna models are popping up all the time. Keep an eye on our used inventory and you may just find a model with your name on it!
2019 McLaren Senna: All the Details
So, why is there so much fuss over the McLaren Senna? Why does it take roughly 300 hours to hand-craft just one of these cars at McLaren’s factory in Surrey, England? It’s hard to truly understand the hype around this supercar without getting behind the wheel, but we’ve got the next best thing in our guide below. Read on for some details about why everyone’s talking about the 2019 McLaren Senna.
Design: Car and Driver compares the 2019 McLaren Senna’s design to a “prehistoric shark.” Motortrend notes that, on a test drive, three different people left their cars to take pictures of the 2019 Senna. We can’t promise that the same will happen to you on the streets of DMV, but the design quality of the Senna is unmistakable. Making use of lightweight carbon fiber, faux-suede or leather upholstery, and a minimalist interior cabin that keeps focusing on the road, the McLaren Senna’s design is equal parts sleek, powerful, and aerodynamic.
Performance: To earn the term supercar–or even “hypercar,” as many have called the McLaren Senna–a vehicle has to have performance specs that are off the charts. The 2019 Senna more than meets the challenge, delivering 789 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque from its 4.0L V8 engine. It reaches 60 mph in 2.8 seconds and 100 mph in 5.1 seconds. Talk about taking your DC Metro-area commute to the next level!
Availability: As stated above, the 2019 McLaren Senna takes a painstaking 300 hours to hand-assemble in England. As such, there are only 500 models out there in the wild right now. While you can’t find a brand-new model today, there are pre-owned models appearing here and there, some coming from extremely high-profile owners–for example, in December 2020, Post Malone put up his incredibly rare (one of just three models made) 2019 McLaren Senna XP for sale.
