Unveiled online in December 2019, the 620R is a road legal iteration of the 570S GT4 race car. The car shares its Monocell II carbon fibre monocoque chassis with the 570S GT4 race car as well as the engine which, not subject to racing restrictions and ECU changes is now rated at 612 hp and 457 lb⋅ft making it McLaren's most powerful sports series model. Other changes include semi-slick Pirelli P zero Trofeo R tyres with track only Pirelli racing slicks being optional, a bare minimum racing interior with the carpeting removed, carbon fibre racing seats with six-point harness, door pull straps, carbon fibre shift paddles, 12 o'clock mark on the steering wheel, McLaren Track Telemetry system (MTT) and deletion of air-conditioning and infotainment system; although they are available as no cost options, adjustable coilover motorsport dampers; which feature 32 individual settings per corner to allow the driver to tailor rebound and compression rates to their preferred settings, stiffer anti-roll bars have and track-focused carbon-ceramic brakes with 390 mm brake discs at the front and 380 mm brake discs at the rear with forged aluminium calipers. The adjustable rear wing made from carbon fibre is shared with the 570S GT4 and allows the 620R to generate 185 kg of downforce at a speed of 155 mph. The large wheel sizes of the car (19 inch at the front, 20 inch at the rear) allow for no mechanical adjustment when the standard tires are switched for racing slicks. The rear wing has an integrated third brake light to make the car road legal.

Performance figures include 0-62 mph acceleration time of 2.9 seconds, 124 mph acceleration time of 8.1 seconds and a top speed of 200 mph which is less than the 600LT due to the car's focus on aerodynamic enhancements. The production of the 620R was limited to 350 units, but due to COVID-19 complications, and a very poor marketing campaign on behalf of McLaren, only 225 units were produced. Each car came with a numbered plaque on the interior. Three basic interior colours were offered: Onyx Black with orange racing stripes, Silica White with orange racing stripes, and McLaren Orange with white racing stripes. A special colour palette was offered by MSO along with a livery inspired by the Senna GTR.
