MEDIA Media release 09.00 BST August 16, 2021 — All-new Artura joins McLaren luxury supercar display at the British Motor Show ▪ McLaren Automotive’s first series production high-performance hybrid supercar, the Artura, will be on display at the British Motor Show ▪ Show appearance follows the Artura’s public dynamic debut earlier this summer ▪ McLaren presence includes the GT and 720S – the latter in both Coupe and Spider form McLaren Automotive will have a major presence at the British Motor Show, headlined by the all-new Artura – McLaren’s first series production high-performance hybrid supercar. The show, which takes place from August 19-22, will be held at the Farnborough Exhibition Centre – a short distance from the McLaren Technology Centre in Woking. Resplendent in Ember Orange, the Artura’s show appearance follows on from its public dynamic debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in July. The first car in its class to embrace electrification, the Artura remains true to the McLaren tradition of innovation in order to preserve its character as a lightweight supercar, despite the addition of an electrified drivetrain. Evolving technology first developed for the Ultimate Series P1TM and Speedtail hybrid hypercars, the plug-in hybrid Artura delivers scintillating performance and handling, while also being capable of low emissions and up to 30km* of near-silent running in electric-only mode. Priced from £285,500, the Artura debuts a lightweight carbon fibre-based architecture - built at the McLaren Composites Technology Centre in the Sheffield region - and an all-new powertrain. This incorporates an all-new 120°-angle twin-turbo 3.0 litre V6, assisted by a compact 94bhp axial-flux E-motor.
