The McLaren 750S has won Top Gear Magazine’s Performance Car of the Year at the annual Top Gear Awards, with McLaren being presented with the trophy at the awards event held in London on November 26.

The award is presented to the winner of Top Gear Magazine’s annual Speed Week event, which gathers the year’s best performance cars, as rated by the publication, for a week-long test on road and track. The 750S was tested on the Navarra circuit in northern Spain before heading to the picturesque and challenging roads in the Pamplona region, along with other Speed Week finalists.

The 750S was crowned Speed Week winner after impressing the Top Gear judges, who were vocal in their praise of the 750S’ abilities on road and track, particularly its huge performance, scintillating driver feedback and connection, engaging character and strong quality.

These achievements informed the reasoning behind the 750S taking victory expressed by Top Gear’s writers:

“Very few cars engage your senses like the 750S – not because of any vices, but simply because the forces coming at you are so alien. It is outrageously fast and agile, it communicates so clearly and it's so willing to adjust its line and angle of attack according to driver inputs. There's shock and awe but also fingertip subtlety.”
Top Gear Magazine, December 2024

“Thank you to Top Gear for naming the McLaren 750S its Performance Car of the Year. This award is recognition of its incredible performance and class-leading supercar credentials. The verdict is also testament to McLaren's determination to consistently push boundaries and beat our own exceptional benchmarks in driver exhilaration and desirability.”
Michael Leiters, Chief Executive Officer, McLaren Automotive
