McLaren MP4-12C Matches the Nissan GT-R’s 0 to 60 MPH Time of 2.8 Seconds [w/Videos]

According to official data from McLaren, the MP4-12C sports car covers the sprint from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 3.1 seconds. Naturally, the car should accelerate to 60 mph (96 km/h) slightly quicker, but by which margin? Well, the people at Drag Times put the MP4-12C to the test and found out the car accelerates from standstill to 60 mph in an impressive 2.8 seconds.

This matches the time set by a 2012 Nissan GT-R, also tested by Drag Times. Taking into account that the Nissan has an advanced AWD system and a brutal 4,100rpm launch control, the McLaren’s result is even more impressive.
The car tested was fitted with Toyo R888 street tires, which are of the same compound and tread wear rating as the factory-fitted Pirelli Corsa tires. The impressive off-the-line acceleration of the McLaren is partly due to its launch control system and the 7-speed SSG transmission, with the 616hp 3.8-liter Twin Turbo V8 engine of course having the decisive role.
Tests revealed the McLaren reached 100 mph (161 km/h) in just 6 seconds flat, 1 second faster than the Nissan. The test drivers said the MP4-12C’s launch control felt much easier and less abusive than the GT-R’s.
Scroll down to see the test video and another video showing a comparison between the McLaren MP4-12C’s launch control system and those of the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Ferrari 458, Porsche 911 Turbo S and Nissan GT-R.
