Luxury carmaker McLaren has joined forces with the LEGO Group for a buildable replica of one of the industry’s most esteemed supercars, dubbed, “LEGO Speed Champions McLaren Elva.”
The 263-piece playset enlists intricate building instructions that incorporate the vehicle’s two-seat open cockpit, heavy-duty engine and detailed branding motifs across a bright blue colorway. Measuring 1.5 inches high, six inches long and three inches wide, the compact toy arrives complete with a McLaren driving figure, decked out with a racing suit, helmet and wrench, inspired by McLaren’s Principal Development Engineer for Ultimate Series, Rachel Brown.
The car itself was designed with the ultimate joyride in mind, featuring an open-top construction with no roof, windscreen or windows. Notably, the automotive company’s advanced Active Air Management System utilizes aerodynamics to create a “bubble” of air around the car’s occupants to protect from expected wind. Just like the real vehicle, the LEGO version include’s the brand’s innovative AAMS vents.
