  • - The shape of the 765LT Spider is inspired by aerodynamics, a relentless pursuit of speed, and an unparalleled driver experience, shaped by the Spirit of Rebellion.

  • - The purity of its form is evident in the elongated profile, the innovative front splitter, the dramatic side air intakes, and the McLaren Senna-inspired carbon fiber front license plate plinth, all contributing to its unique stance.
