<p>The cross-section of audiophiles who are also McLaren fans must be quite small, but it numbers at least one, myself. So you can imagine the squeal of delight I let slip when into my inbox popped this, the brand new Bowers &amp; Wilkins Zeppelin McLaren edition. </p><p>It's the same B&amp;W Zeppelin you know and love, adorned with some delicious papaya details, as well as that McLaren Speedy Kiwi. If you recall, the Zeppelin was one of the the most iconic iPod and iPhone docks back in 2008, and it persists in 2023 as a potent speaker. </p><p>No longer relying on aged docking technology, it can stream high-quality audio from all the usual sources. This speaker is the result of an eight-year partnership that has seen Bowers &amp; Wilkins speakers power the audio inside all of McLaren's supercars and hypercars. </p><h2 id="the-audio-package-3">The audio package</h2><figure data-bordeaux-image-check=""><div><p><picture><source alt="Bowers &amp; Wilkins McLaren" data-normal="https://vanilla.futurecdn.net/imore/media/img/missing-image.svg" data-original-mos="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff.jpg" data-pin-media="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff.jpg" data-sizes="(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)" data-srcset="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-320-80.jpg.webp 320w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w" onerror="if(this.src &amp;&amp; this.src.indexOf('missing-image.svg') !== -1){return true;};this.parentNode.replaceChild(window.missingImage(),this)" type="image/webp"></source><source alt="Bowers &amp; Wilkins McLaren" data-normal="https://vanilla.futurecdn.net/imore/media/img/missing-image.svg" data-original-mos="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff.jpg" data-pin-media="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff.jpg" data-sizes="(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)" data-srcset="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-320-80.jpg 320w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-480-80.jpg 480w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-650-80.jpg 650w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-970-80.jpg 970w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-1200-80.jpg 1200w" onerror="if(this.src &amp;&amp; this.src.indexOf('missing-image.svg') !== -1){return true;};this.parentNode.replaceChild(window.missingImage(),this)" type="image/jpeg"></source><img alt="Bowers &amp; Wilkins McLaren" data-normal="https://vanilla.futurecdn.net/imore/media/img/missing-image.svg" data-original-mos="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff.jpg" data-pin-media="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff.jpg" data-sizes="(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)" data-srcset="https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-320-80.jpg 320w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-480-80.jpg 480w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-650-80.jpg 650w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-970-80.jpg 970w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-1024-80.jpg 1024w, https://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/h4PbwyvgmC8AAx2r9kY8ff-1200-80.jpg 1200w" onerror="if(this.src &amp;&amp; this.src.indexOf('missing-image.svg') !== -1){return true;};this.parentNode.replaceChild(window.missingImage(),this)" src="https://vanilla.futurecdn.net/imore/media/img/missing-image.svg"></img></picture></p></div><figcaption itemprop="caption description"><span itemprop="copyrightHolder">(Image credit: Bowers &amp; Wilkins)</span></figcaption></figure><p>The new Zeppelin McLaren edition will cost £799 / $899 / €899 from retailers, that's the black one you can see here.

Those will only be available in select McLaren dealerships and probably quite a bit more expensive. </p><p>240W of power drives the Zeppelin's stereo speakers, left and right, positioned around a large subwoofer.
