McLaren, continuing its agonisingly slow unveiling of its new P1 hypercar, has revealed the first images of the car's interior.
And, with just a single cursory glance at the above photos, two words leap out at you immediately, the first being carbon, and the second fibre. It's absolutely everywhere -- on the dashboard, on the floor, on the headlining, doors and rockers. The central control unit is even fashioned out of a single piece of carbon in order to save weight.
McLaren also claims to have removed the top layer of resin from the carbon fibre, a move which not only gives a more 'natural look', but which also lops 1.5kg off the car's kerb weight.
There is further evidence of this weight saving if you look at the P1's carpets, or rather where the carpets would be if they weren't an optional extra. Even the racing bucket seats are built around 'ultra-thin' carbon-fibre shells with very little padding and weigh just 10.5kg each.
Yet despite the hard-core simplicity of the P1, a number of creature comforts are on offer. Satellite navigation and climate control are both fitted and you even get a bespoke Meridian sound system.
McLaren claims that the P1 offers its occupants a "cocooning, efficiently packaged [and] comfortable" interior. The company also claims that the P1's glass roof makes the cabin feel like the cockpit of a fighter jet and enables the driver to plant the car more precisely on the road.
As I'm sure you'll agree, the P1's insides look as good as its exterior. We can't wait until McLaren gives the car its public unveiling at the Geneva Motor Show next month.
