McLaren’s 2024 750S, as the successor to the impressive 720S, has a lot to live up to. The car maker has made significant updates to ensure that the new supercar is even more thrilling than its predecessor. One important feature is its high-mounted, stainless steel exhaust, which is lighter and produces better sounds than the 720S’ system.

Understanding why the new exhaust is better requires technical knowledge of harmonics. Essentially, engineers have fine-tuned the exhaust to minimize certain sounds that can be undesirable for everyday driving. The new exhaust emphasizes a just-right frequency for a satisfying sound experience, with an added intense sound for spirited driving. Additionally, the new exhaust is smaller and has a revised construction, resulting in a weight saving of 4.8 pounds.
