Some Interesting McLaren 570S Spider Facts
- Same Performance as the Coupé – Despite being a convertible, the 570S Spider retains the same 3.8L twin-turbo V8, producing 570 PS (562 hp) and 600 Nm (443 lb-ft) of torque, with no performance loss.
- 0-100 km/h in Just 3.2 Seconds – The 570S Spider accelerates from 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 3.2 seconds, identical to the coupé, and has a top speed of 328 km/h (204 mph) with the roof up.
- Retractable Hardtop in 15 Seconds – The electrically operated hardtop can be opened or closed in just 15 seconds, even while driving at speeds up to 40 km/h (25 mph).
