The McLaren 12C, first named the MP4-12C, is a mid-engined sports car produced by the British carmaker McLaren Automotive from 2011 to 2014. It was sold as a coupe and as a retractable hard-top convertible called the Spider, which appeared in July 2012. It marked the return of McLaren to production car sales after the F1 ended in 1998. The car is built around a carbon fibre structure called the MonoCell and uses a 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and series manufacture began at the company facility in Woking, Surrey. More than 3,400 were built before the 650S, which shares most of its components, replaced it in April 2014.
