McLaren Confirms Multi-Seat Road Car as Nio Tech and New Model Announcement Nears
CYVN’s ownership puts Nick Collins in charge of a 2030 roadmap centered on self-sustaining growth.
Overview
- Reports point to an all-new McLaren being announced before the end of the year, with details yet to be disclosed.
- Collins says a future model will accommodate more than two occupants, but he has not confirmed whether it will be an SUV, sedan or another format.
- Nio-sourced components will enter McLaren models “much sooner than you think,” including at a component level in the current range, according to Collins.
- The Nio tie-up is enabled by owner CYVN Holdings’ industrial strategy and its roughly 20 percent stake in the Chinese EV maker.
- Following McLaren’s merger with startup Forseven, Collins has mapped products through 2030 and is prioritizing a lineup that generates free cashflow.
