The designers were asked to create a car that had “everything for a reason” and “considering social and environmental trends for future vehicles…imagine a small vehicle that encapsulates the brand."

Stephenson and other judges selected five finalists whose proposals were sent to McLaren to be made into 3D models. 

The winning design was Teeravit Hanharutaivan's MP4-S, which is a one-seat concept that you can see in the gallery. You can view more of his work here.
