British supercar maker McLaren is set to lower prices across its India range by close to 38 percent according to people aware of the company's plans. This makes it the first supercar marque to follow Jaguar Land Rover in passing on the benefits it expects from the India-UK free trade agreement.
- McLaren prices in India are set to be reduced by up to 38 percent
- JLR has also revealed revised India prices in anticipation of India-UK FTA
McLarens price revision anticipating India-UK FTA
| Model | New Price | Old Price | Difference |
| 750S Coupe | Rs 4.94 crore | Rs 7.94 crore | Rs 3 crore |
| 750S Spider | Rs 5.46 crore | Rs 8.78 crore | Rs 3.32 crore |
| GTS | Rs 3.83 crore | Rs 6.15 crore | Rs 2.32 crore |
The McLaren 750S coupe's price is set to fall to Rs 4.94 crore from about Rs 7.94 crore. The convertible 750S Spider's price is set to drop to Rs 5.46 crore from Rs 8.78 crore, while theprice for the GTS grand tourer falls to Rs 3.83 crore from Rs 6.15 crore. Each model declines by about Rs 2.3 crore to Rs 3.3 crore. McLaren has not publicly confirmed the figures.
It's important to note that the Artura, on account of being a hybrid will see no price revision. Hybrid cars do not qualify for lower tax benefits for the first five years.
The duty relief stems from the India-UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement, which is set to cut the customs duty on British petrol cars above 3,000cc and diesel cars above 2,500cc from 110 percent to 30 percent in the first year, falling to 10 percent by the fifth year within an annual import quota. Both the 750S and the GTS use a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8, placing them in this top engine band.
The move follows Jaguar Land Rover, which on 5 May became the first carmaker to act, cutting the Range Rover SV's price by Rs 75 lakh to Rs 3.5 crore and the Range Rover Sport SV's price by Rs 40 lakh to Rs 2.35 crore. Those cuts ran to about 15-18 percent, and JLR said it might not pass on the full benefit. McLaren's planned reduction is more than double that, at about 38 percent.
When will the new prices be effective?
The agreement, however, has not yet come into force. It was signed on 24 July 2025, and an April 2026 target for implementation has slipped, with Indian and UK officials still resolving issues such as steel safeguards as of early June. None of the duty cuts apply until both sides exchange ratification notifications, so brands moving now are passing on benefits in anticipation. The quota also caps the number of cars that qualify and must be shared across British marques, which makes allocation as important as price.
McLaren entered India in 2021 and opened its first showroom in Mumbai in late 2022, run by importer Infinity Cars. Its India range centres on the 750S coupe and Spider, the Artura and the GTS. The brand had delivered about 50 cars in the country by early 2025.
Other British marques eligible for the lower duty include Bentley, Rolls Royce, Aston Martin and Lotus, none of which has yet announced a price cut. The extent of any reductions will depend on import volumes and individual brand strategy. For the luxury market, the agreement is India's first tariff concession on cars in any trade deal.
