Supercar culture is gaining traction in India, and several new manufacturers are entering the market with high-priced products. Even though we have car manufacturers such as Lamborghini, Aston Martin, Rolls Royce, Ferrari, and even McLaren in India, spotting them on our roads remains difficult. The owners of these vehicles do not drive them on a daily basis. The reason for this is, well, narrow roads and traffic jams. Here’s a video that shows how difficult it is to drive a multi-million dollar supercar like a McLaren through India’s congested and narrow streets.
Spotter India posted the video to their YouTube channel. A brand new McLaren 720S sports car is seen on a busy and narrow road in this video. Based on the license plates of other vehicles on the road, the location is most likely Karnataka. Bengaluru has a sizable supercar and sports car population. The vlogger has frequently seen many supercars on Bengaluru’s streets. This video, however, is not like the others. It demonstrates how difficult it is to drive an expensive car like this on a narrow and congested road.

The McLaren 720S sports car is on a narrow stretch of road that is congested in both directions. The driver is driving the car slowly forward. To make matters worse, a side of the road has been dug for some work. This made the driver’s job much more difficult. (Provigil) He must be careful not to hit any of the vehicles in the traffic jam with his expensive car, and he must also avoid driving into the dug up road. There were bikers overtaking the sports car from the left side, which was not helping the driver in any way.
The McLaren driver moved the car forward slowly. What we don’t realize is that, unlike the typical cars and SUVs we see on our roads, these vehicles are wide and take up a lot of space. Another reason why owners of sports cars dislike driving their vehicles on narrow and congested roads. The car shown here is painted in McLaren Orange. The McLaren 720S is a sports car with a 4.0 litre V8 twin-turbocharged petrol engine. The engine can produce up to 720 PS and 770 Nm of peak torque.
