McLaren 765LT with 1,000 hp

In early March, Hennessey announced it would increase the power of the McLaren 765LT up to 1,000 hp.

As a reminder, the standard McLaren 765LT develops 755 hp and reaches 60 mph in 2.8 seconds with a top speed of 205 mph (330 km / h). That was not enough for Hennessey, so he decided to work on the power of this supercar.

Founder & CEO, John Hennessey said: “The new 765LT is underrated from the factory. We tested it on our in-house dyno and it delivered about 765 HP – at the rear wheels. This means it’s producing closer to 865 bhp in bone stock form. ” He also said, “Upgrading the 765LT to 1,000 HP will drop the 0-60 mph time to just 2.1 seconds, which is just nuts.”

The standard McLaren 765LT costs $ 358,000. If you want to upgrade this beast, you will have to pay an additional $ 24,950 for the kit and installation.

McLaren Artura

Back in 2012, the British company McLaren introduced a hybrid P1 model with more than 900 horsepower. Eight years later, McLaren introduces a plug-in version of the hybrid model Artura.

This model has a 3.8-liter V8 engine that in combination with an electric motor offers more than 900 hp. Accelerates from 0 – 62 mph in 2.8 seconds with a top speed of 217 mph (350 km / h).

This model is powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine that combined with the electric motor delivers 671 hp (7,500 rpm) and 593 lb-ft (2,250 rpm) of torque. Arthur accelerates from 0 – 62 mph in 3 seconds with a top speed of 205 mph. The battery of the electric motor allows you to travel 19 miles (31 kilometers). It takes you 2.5 hours to charge 80 percent of the battery.

Artura features customizable cruise control, lane departure warning, high-beam assist and road sign recognition (as standard). The car also features McLaren’s new infotainment system (MIS II), a high-resolution touch screen, and new telemetry software with Variable Drift Control.

The new model is based on the new ultralight aluminum-carbon platform (MCLA). The total weight of the car with 90 percent fuel in the tank is 1,498 kilograms.

The McLaren Arthur is a model with slightly less power, but much cheaper, as the price of this model is around $ 225,000, while the price of the McLaren P1 is over a million dollars.

German tuner company Novitec has unveiled a new project, the McLaren 765LT. It is the successor to the McLaren 675LT model.
