Description

The racing series behind the model

Extreme E is an off-road racing championship for electric SUVs that visits locations chosen to highlight the effects of climate change, from deserts to coastlines. NEOM McLaren Extreme E is one of the teams competing in this series, and the LEGO Technic version captures the boxy, high-clearance shape typical of these vehicles, sitting on oversized wheels built for sand and gravel. It's a licensed model from a racing category that gets far less LEGO attention than Formula 1, which makes it a distinctive addition to a motorsport collection.

A compact build with 252 pieces

At 252 pieces across 63 unique elements, this is one of the smaller sets in the Technic range, which keeps the build within a single sitting while still involving genuine Technic construction: beams, axles and connectors joined into a rigid frame before the body panels go on. That size makes it a reasonable entry point for anyone new to Technic building, or a quick project for an experienced builder who wants a finished model without a multi-session commitment.

Colour scheme and finish

Black, blue, light bluish grey and red make up the model's palette, echoing the livery of the real race car. Black and light grey form the structural base of the chassis and panels, while blue and red pick out the team's sponsor colours as accents. Together they keep the finished model recognisable as a race car even at a glance. The exact split of how many pieces come in each colour is listed in the parts table on this page.

Reusing the parts elsewhere

The axles, pins and panel pieces in this set are standard Technic elements, so they mix easily with other Technic models if you want to try your own vehicle builds or top up spares from older sets. With 63 different part types included, it's worth checking the list below before ordering extra pieces for another project, since there's a good chance this set already covers what you need.
