The teams at LEGO and McLaren
Automotive worked together to create
a drivable, 1:1 scale LEGO Technic
McLaren P1™ supercar!
This incredible machine is an
engineering masterpiece made from
a whopping 342,817 LEGO Technic
elements!
It weighs as much as a real car
(about 1220kg) and features working
steering and even LEGO Technic

This car is SO so cool that even 2025 Formula 1 Championship Winner Lando Norris took it for a spin around the famous Silverstone racetrack!
The model marks the first time ever that a LEGO scale build has been able to drive around corners, the first time EVER that a LEGO scale build has been capable of completing a lap of a racetrack, and the first time EVER that a Formula One racing driver has driven a LEGO build!
The model celebrates the 1:8 LEGO® Technic™ McLaren P1™ set (42172), a complex LEGO Technic set with a 7-speed gearbox, dual clutch transmission, suspension, a V8 piston engine, adjustable rear wing and fully opening dihedral doors… it’s not a set for the faint-hearted!
