McLaren announces it latest store

Ten years after opening the doors of its first global retailer in London, British luxury supercar manufacturer McLaren Automotive announces that its 100th retailer is set to open in China later this year.  

McLaren Automotive’s first retailer opened in the summer of 2011 and allowed customers and fans to discover the company’s first supercar, the 12C.

In the decade since, McLaren has continued to grow its retail presence to over 40 territories worldwide and has marked the decade with much-admired supercars such as the benchmark-setting 720S and the seminal 675LT – the first of the modern-day McLaren Longtails – the McLaren P1TM which was the world’s first hybrid hypercar as well as the GT and ultra-exclusive Ultimate models, the McLaren Senna, Speedtail and, more recently, the Elva roadster.

To mark its 50th anniversary, McLaren opened its 50th store in 2013 in Auckland the birthplace of founder, Bruce McLaren.

The new site is operated by the Giltrap Group that has close links with the McLaren brand. Sir Colin Giltrap is a patron of the Bruce McLaren Trust, and knew the famous racer before his move to the UK.
