All-new from the ground up and underpinned by the McLaren philosophy of super-lightweight engineering, the Artura is a distillation of every inherent McLaren attribute combined with faster throttle response, lower emissions and the ability to run in pure EV mode, thanks to its ground-breaking electrified powertrain.
According to McLaren, the Artura is also the first model built on the new McLaren Carbon Lightweight Architecture (MCLA), which contributes to the car’s class-leading lightest dry weight of 1 395kg and a DIN kerb weight of 1 498kg.
SA school kids rock up to matric dance in a Bugatti Veyron and McLaren 570S and Mzansi is in disbelief
A private school in Benoni saw some of its learners flex at the 2022 Matric Ball, arriving in supercars such as a Bugatti Veyron, Lamborghini Huracan and McLaren 570 S, Briefly News reports.
The school fees per year are over R40 000 per learner and it seems the parents have the money to dish out on mega-powerful lux rides for their kids to arrive at the dance that took place on Wednesday 13 April.
The Veyron uses an 8,0-litre W16 engine with four turbochargers to produce 736kW, according to the company's site. The McLaren 570S cost R3 150 000 when it arrived locally in 2016. It is powered by a 3,8-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine with 420kW.
