McLaren’s Artura supercar<\/a> launched a year ago is set to spawn a racing variant.<\/p>\n

A camouflaged prototype was filmed by YouTuber\u00a019Bozzy92 earlier this week testing at Italy’s Monza racetrack, and it appears to be already at a late stage of development. This means the car could be racing as soon as 2023.<\/p>\n

Given the almost road car-like look of the prototype, we’re most likely looking at an Artura GT4 to fill in for the aging 570S GT4<\/a> in McLaren’s customer racing lineup. Hopefully there will also be a version designed for track enthusiasts along the lines of the 570S Sprint<\/a>, which is based on the 570S GT4.<\/p>\n

The Artura road car is powered by a plug-in hybrid powertrain consisting of a 2.9-liter twin-turbocharged V-6 and an electric motor integrated with the transmission, in this case an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic. Peak output is 671 hp and 531 lb-ft of torque, with drive sent to the rear wheels only.<\/p>\n

This race car is likely running the V-6 only. In the road car, the engine on its own delivers a peak 577 hp and 431 lb-ft.<\/p>\n

Ferrari’s upcoming GT3-spec race car based on the rival 296 GTB<\/a> will also skip the electrification of its road car sibling. The 296 GT3 is scheduled to starting racing in 2023.<\/p>\n

McLaren’s current GT3 contender is based on the 720S supercar. It’s possible an Artura GT3 is developed to replace the 720S GT3, although McLaren may also hold off on developing a new GT3 race car until it launches a successor to the 720S.<\/p>\n

The Artura is priced from $225,000. Pricing for McLaren’s race cars, which are largely hand built by the McLaren GT division, typically runs substantially higher than the pricing for the respective road car counterparts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
