McLaren Automotive was pleased to showcase a pair of all-new McLaren Arturas at The Triple F Collection’s The Event 2 on Sunday, June 5th, in Columbus, OH. As the brand’s first-ever series-production High Performance Hybrid (HPH), the Artura blends the thrilling performance, driving dynamics and engagement McLaren is known for with EV driving capability.
The Event 2, the second annual event held by The Triple F Collection, featured some of the world’s most exclusive hyper, exotic, and sports cars and benefited the Make-A-Wish Foundation ® Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana. The Event 2 drew in an enthusiastic crowd of over 20,000 attendees and raised over $150,000 for Make-A-Wish Foundation®.
Says The Triple F Collection: “We are avid car enthusiasts at heart and we’ve had the unique opportunity to combine our passion for cars with giving back to our community, specifically children in need, through Make-A-Wish Foundation. We couldn’t ask for a better partner than McLaren to bring these two passions together!”
As McLaren brand enthusiasts, many of the Triple F Collection’s own cars were on display at the Event 2, including the McLaren P1, 675LT, Senna, 720S Spider, Speedtail and one of only 15 McLaren Sabres. An additional 27 McLarens were registered for The Event 2, with the two examples of the all-new Artura taking centerstage.
“Nothing pleases us more than when customers enjoy their cars, and the Triple F Collection, who are known to daily drive even the most exotic McLarens in their collection, are a prime example of this,” said Nicolas Brown, President, McLaren, the Americas. “As a brand, you couldn’t ask for more passionate and engaged owners, and it’s been fantastic showcasing the all-new McLaren Artura to a such group of enthusiasts.”
Underpinned by the McLaren philosophy of super-lightweight engineering, the all-new Artura is the distillation of every attribute inherent in a McLaren: distinctive design, unrivalled performance, dynamic excellence and engineering innovation. Even faster throttle response, lower emissions (39MPGe) and the ability to run in pure EV mode for up to 11 miles are the key benefits of electrification.
The Artura is the first model to utilize the all-new McLaren Carbon Lightweight Architecture (MCLA), which is uniquely optimized for hybrids, and is built in-house at the McLaren Composites Technology Center in Sheffield, England.
The all-new twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 petrol engine with an E-motor produces a combined output of 671bhp and 531 lb-ft. of torque. The 94bhp E-motor delivers instant torque of 166lb-ft, ensuring the sharpest-ever throttle response from a McLaren with 0-60mph in 3.0 seconds.
The all-new lightweight eight-speed transmission integrates McLaren’s first electronic-differential, while a new rear suspension concept, uprated electro-hydraulic steering and Proactive Damping Control enhance agility, stability and dynamic performance. Performance is further boosted with a curb weight of just 3,303lbs, the lightest in its class.
“The Artura… it has to be experienced to be believed. The intensity, the beauty, the refinement, the sheer speed all wrapped up into a daily-drivable, comfortable package is unparalleled,” said the Triple F Collection. “We have never seen a vehicle at this price point with technology meant for million-dollar hypercars. McLaren has done the impossible and the Artura will be a staple of our car collection.”
The McLaren Artura has a starting MSRP of $233,000* and includes a complementary 3-year service plan. The Artura is arriving at retailers across the country from July. For more information visit https://cars.mclaren.com/us-en/artura.
