More information on the Elva from Eric Stafford - Car and Driver: "A car windshield protects passengers from rushing wind and dangerous debris, but the McLaren Elva eliminates that barrier to provide the purest driving experience possible. The automaker also includes an innovative feature that directs air up and over this topless beauty to help shield passengers from the elements. Still, the Elva's main mission is driver immersion. That's helped by the hypercar's mid-mounted 804-hp twin-turbo V-8 that exhales through four exhaust barrels. Combine that with a lightweight carbon-fiber construction, and this McLaren ranks among the quickest cars on the market. Regardless of performance posturing, the 2021 Elva is a breathtaking creation that competes with windscreen-less exotics such as the Ferrari Monza and Aston Martin V12 Speedster. The McLaren Elva is a limited-production model inspired by race cars that were designed by the legendary Bruce McLaren in the late '60s. It's also the latest member to join the company's exclusive Ultimate Series, which includes legends such as the McLaren P1 and more recent sensations such as the Speedtail. Even if you're among the excessively rich folk who can afford the Elva's seven-figure price, McLaren will build only 399 examples. Those who are lucky enough to acquire one can then proceed to customize it through the company's MSO Division. The most sensational of these bespoke options include a 24-karat-gold heat shield for the engine compartment. Engine, Transmission, and Performance: Its wild and unconventional design can easily distract from the Elva's remarkable performance credentials. This includes its twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 that produces 804 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. The engine hooks up to a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission that powers the rear wheels. McLaren claims the Elva will accelerate from zero to 62 mph in less than three seconds and from zero to 124 mph in just 6.7 seconds. For added context, that latter number makes the Elva quicker than the track-focused Senna. The Elva also is reported to be the company's lightest road car ever, but likely not lighter than icons such as the McLaren F1. While our extensive tests have proved time and time again that anything wearing Bruce McLaren's namesake will excite the senses, we still walked away from a test drive in the Elva stunned by its speed and graceful handling. Interior, Comfort, and Cargo The outside and inside of the Elva are seamlessly connected. Not having a roof-let alone a windshield-will do that. The integrated appearance also can be attributed to how the exterior bodywork extends into the upper dashboard and door panels. Apart from the obligatory central infotainment screen, the Elva's interior design is uncomplicated. McLaren wisely keeps the flat-bottomed steering wheel free of buttons, and the binnacle that houses the fully digital gauge cluster is connected to the steering column, so the entire unit moves together. A series of climate-control vents are located below the beltline, presumably to maximize hot and cold air flow. These face a pair of supportive-looking seats for the driver and passenger. They're the ones who benefit from the Elva's neatest trick, which uses natural airflow and a front-mounted deflector to direct air up and over the cockpit. McLaren calls it Active Air Management, and the system automatically adjusts based on how fast the car is traveling. The company will also offer a fixed windshield to comply with certain state laws and pacify those who can't help but diminish the whole experience."
