McLaren will soon reveal the 720S’s successor to the world. To get people pumped up for the global reveal—which is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET tomorrow, April 25—the British supercar-maker has posted a short teaser video on its Twitter page.
The 10-second clip not only lets us briefly hear what the new car sounds like at startup, but it also gives us a glimpse of its rear end. From the video we see a set of curved taillights that sit above mesh rear vents, which are further illuminated when the lights turn on. The video closes with the words “Benchmark. Beaten.” followed by details about tomorrow’s global premiere.
While McLaren has yet to officially announce the name of the 720S’s replacement, earlier this year Automotive News reported that it’ll be called the 750S. That report also claimed the follow-up will gain 30 horsepower and be a “little more aggressive” than the outgoing 720S. That model featured a 710-hp twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 and was available as a coupe and spider (a.k.a. convertible).
Those details and more about the new McLaren supercar should be known tomorrow night. So stay tuned in to find out.

Eric Stafford’s automobile addiction began before he could walk, and it has fueled his passion to write news, reviews, and more for Car and Driver since 2016. His aspiration growing up was to become a millionaire with a Jay Leno–like car collection. Apparently, getting rich is harder than social-media influencers make it seem, so he avoided financial success entirely to become an automotive journalist and drive new cars for a living. After earning a degree at Central Michigan University and working at a daily newspaper, the years of basically burning money on failed project cars and lemon-flavored jalopies finally paid off when Car and Driver hired him. His garage currently includes a 2010 Acura RDX, a manual ’97 Chevy Camaro Z/28, and a ’90 Honda CRX Si.
