The McLaren Artura is not the most common tuner choice, but a few customization experts have enhanced its performance and design. Novitec, a well-known tuning company, has refined McLaren’s Sports Series models for years.
Last summer, Novitec showcased a stunning black McLaren Artura with visual and mechanical upgrades, including a power boost. They’ve done it again, with an even more dynamic presence.
What’s New in This Novitec McLaren Artura Upgrade?
At first glance, it might seem like a stock Artura, but the most noticeable change is the massive rear wing, giving the supercar a more aggressive stance. Additionally, Novitec has fitted a high-performance exhaust system, improving sound and power.
Apart from these upgrades, the Artura retains its factory look. The glossy black paint finish stands out in a sea of brightly colored supercars. The red brake calipers contrast strikingly, while the wheels remain similar to the original McLaren design, complete with OEM center caps. Inside, the cabin follows the same all-black theme, complemented by subtle metal accents.
Novitec Mclaren Performance Enhancements: A Slight Power Boost
Novitec kept modifications minimal but effective. Thanks to the new exhaust system, the Artura likely has a slight increase over its stock output of 690 horsepower (700 PS/515 kW) and 531 lb-ft (720 Nm) of torque. The supercar’s 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 engine delivers 596 hp (605 PS/445 kW), while its electric motor adds another 94 hp (95 PS/70 kW).
Even in stock form, the McLaren Artura can hit a speed of 205 mph (330 km/h) and sprints from 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in just 3.0 seconds. These figures may be slightly improved with Novitec's tweaks, making the Artura an even more thrilling ride.
Novitec McLaren Artura: A Supercar with Cutting-Edge Engineering
The McLaren Artura debuted in 2022 as a replacement for the 540C, 570S, and 570GT. Built on the advanced McLaren Carbon Lightweight Architecture (MCLA), the supercar features a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive setup. Manufactured at McLaren’s Woking facility in England, it was designed by Rob Melville, the creative mind behind the 720S, Senna, Speedtail, and other modern McLaren models.
