&freedive
most accessible ways to enter this world. No engines. No tanks.
Just breath, body, and water.
But the human body has limits.
We tire. We slow.
Mclaren Extension
McLaren's design philosophy has never been limited to the road. In 2025, McLaren Engineering (via Linamar) collaborated with Honda Marine to produce a performance-tuned outboard engine called the McLaren Performance M300, extending McLaren's performance DNA from the racetrack deep into the ocean.

McLaren reimagines how we move in the ocean?

so..HOW DOES IT WORK?
Hover for hand position
Buttons
You pick up P0. Two inputs — that's all.
The trigger controls speed and doubles as a kill switch. The button cycles through modes.
Everything else is handled for you.
Screen
Press the trigger. The screen comes alive.
Speed and battery — front and center, always visible.
Nothing else clutters the view.

joy together
you can do that because..
INTAKE STRUCTURE
Three integrated openings — main propulsion intake, secondary flow intake, and pressure relief vent.
Keep flow controlled at every speed. The bottom-mounted intake means P0 moves just as fluidly above the water as below it.
TAIL STRUCTURE
A central propeller housed in the tail. Flow-stabilizing structure around it, a protective grill in front.
Thrust exits cleanly — nothing caught, nothing wasted.
You don't have to worry about the dark anymore！
LIGHT DESIGN
An LED headlight cuts through the water ahead. A red taillight marks where you've been — keeping you visible to others. Depth doesn't limit you. Neither does direction.

what about charging?
CHARGING MODULES
Back on the yacht, plug in. P0 fast-charges in the low-hour range — ready before you are.
Two modes let you choose between speed and battery longevity.
Your next dive starts the moment you want it to.
It started with a simple wish
"to fly underwater, and swim like a fish"
