McLaren has released the performance specs for the McLaren P1 hybrid supercar that is going to debut next week in Geneva. The P1's hybrid powertrain generates a total 903 horsepower, which is enough to help the supercar reach 0-62 in less than three seconds, 0-124 mph in under seven seconds and an electronically-limited top speed of 217 mph.

The P1 is powered by a mid-mounted 3.8L twin-turbocharged V8 that is mated to an electric motor that together generate 903 horsepower. In fully electric mode the P1 has the ability to travel up to 12 miles with an average speed of 30 mph.

McLaren has also announced that the P1 will start at £866,000 ($1.31 million) when it goes on sale this fall.
Sounds to be just as epic as the first car... in performance and price!

Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

The 918 Spyder is a much more attractive car IMHO.
