2025 McLaren Artura Spider

The McLaren Artura Spider is the new powerful car in the British car manufacturer’s fleet. It brings a number of aerodynamic improvements, 690 hp, and McLaren considers this model to be the most economical car in the fleet.

Artura Spider is powered by a 3.0-liter V6 engine combined with an electric motor with a total power of 690 hp (515 kW) and 531 lb-ft (720 Nm) of torque. That’s enough power to push the 1,457 kg car from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.0 seconds, 200 km/h (124 mph) in 8.4, and 300 km/h (186 mph) in 21.6 seconds, with a top speed of 330 km/h (205 mph). It is equipped with a 7.4 kWh battery that provides a range of 33 km (21 miles).

The Spider is 62 kg heavier than the Coupe model, and the company states that the difference is in the weight of the roof, which can be folded in 11 seconds at a speed of 50 km/h. The car is equipped with improved suspension, a new exhaust system (sport exhaust system is optional), new tailpipes, and has better handling.

In addition to improving aerodynamics, McLaren has also improved the cooling of the engine and brakes, and the ducts leading to the brake system allow for better and more consistent performance of the carbon-ceramic brakes at high speeds.

Inside, the driver-oriented interior is equipped with luxurious materials, a steering wheel free of buttons and controls, a functional driver’s display that hosts controls to select Handling and Powertrain modes with a stealth mode that hides non-essential content, reducing distractions and promoting full concentration on the road ahead . Customers can choose between Clubsport seats and electrically adjustable, heated comfort seats with memory.

2024 McLaren 720S GT3 Evo

On March 2, the new season of the World Endurance Championship (WEC) starts, and the teams are making final preparations by presenting their cars with which they will try to win the championship title. One of them is McLaren with its new car, the McLaren 720S GT3 Evo.

For the first time, McLaren will compete in all three “Triple Crown” races in the same year, having won each of them individually in the past. On the track will be two cars in a combination of black and orange colors with the numbers 65 and 95, which mark McLaren’s victory at Le Mans in 1995 with the F1 GTR model.

The McLaren 720S GT3 Evo is equipped with larger air intakes on both sides, a set of wider wings, larger bumpers and a splitter allowing teams to quickly change parts. By installing new body parts, additional downforce and stability of the vehicle on the track is greater. At the back, the rear wing is placed slightly higher to further increase downforce. Also, this season McLaren will use Goodyear instead of Pirelli tires.

When it comes to the powertrain, the 720S GT3 Evo will be powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with between 550 and 600 hp (410 – 447 kW). We will have more information about the performance at the beginning of the season.

The front part recalls the McLaren Formula 1 MP4/2 car with number 7 with which Alain Prost was most successful in the 1984 Grand Prix race in Monte Carlo (Monaco), while the color combination on the rear part celebrates the M16D car with starting number 3 with which Johnny Rutherford won the American Indy 500 race in 1974. The middle part of the car celebrates the McLaren F1 GTR with starting number 59, with which Yannick Dalmas, Masanori Sekiya and JJ Lehto won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1995.

Inside, the bucket seats are trimmed in Alcantara while the headrests feature a logo that represents the “Triple Crown.” Alcantara covers the door panels and the dashboard.

The car will be produced in only 6 copies, and the company said that all copies have already been sold. It is powered by a 4.0L biturbo V8 engine making 750 hp (560 kW) and 590 lb-ft (800 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph (100 km/h) in 2.8 seconds with a top speed of 330 km/h (205 mph).
