The funding will also finance a £500 million overhaul of production facilities, including bringing engine manufacturing back in-house. The move signals a strategic shift toward greater self-sufficiency and a broader electric vehicle strategy. Industry analysts suggest this could strengthen McLaren’s position in the growing luxury EV market.
