This is where the designers gave way to aerodynamicists, to avoid tearing the Elva&#8217;s pilot&#8217;s hair out up to at least 115 km\/h. Beyond that, what&#8217;s going on?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1417\" height=\"832\" src=\"http:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-1024x601.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19582\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-1024x601.png 1024w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-300x176.png 300w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1-768x451.png 768w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/1.png 1417w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1417px) 100vw, 1417px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">Thanks to a large air intake at the base of the front bumper, air is sucked in and compressed and exits through a gaping mouth upstream of the passenger compartment. Thanks to its interior deflectors, it spits out the air in a forward-facing flow, forcing the layer of air coming from the front bonnet to overlap it and pass over the heads of both occupants (see video below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"McLaren Tech Club - Episode 1 - How the Elva keeps your comfortable at 70mph without a windscreen\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/o8N6yet1Rc4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">If you are seduced by this extreme machine (and if you can afford it), know that you will be able to personalise it to your taste, thanks to a unique production of each copy, as you will be able to guess with the video below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Power Up - Creating the ultimate roadster\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/-oKMGgHcNyc?start=41&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>INSPIRATION : THE M1A<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"560\" src=\"http:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/McLaren-Elva-Banner-1920x1050-1-1024x560.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/McLaren-Elva-Banner-1920x1050-1-1024x560.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/McLaren-Elva-Banner-1920x1050-1-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/McLaren-Elva-Banner-1920x1050-1-768x420.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/McLaren-Elva-Banner-1920x1050-1.jpg 1417w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\">The McLaren Elva is inspired by a nearly 60-year-old race car. Considered the first &#8220;real&#8221; McLaren, the M1A was a tubular chassis sports car with independent suspension, four disc brakes and the 310hp Oldsmobile V8. It made its first appearance at the Mosport Grand Prix in September 1964. Its creator, Bruce McLaren, qualified on the front row and finished the race on the podium in third place. McLaren&#8217;s debut as a constructor was striking!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"http:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/LIGNESMCLAREN_00-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/LIGNESMCLAREN_00-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/LIGNESMCLAREN_00-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/LIGNESMCLAREN_00-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/LIGNESMCLAREN_00.jpg 1417w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/lignesauto.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/LOGOActus_BD-1024x367.jpg\" alt=\"L\u2019attribut alt de cette image est vide, son nom de fichier est LOGOActus_BD-1024x367.jpg.\" width=\"530\" height=\"189\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Designers can come up with strange ideas, sometimes they stumble over problems related to architecture or aerodynamics.
