McLaren Artura Receives Prestigious Title As Britain's Best Driver's Car From Autocar Magazine
The McLaren Artura has been recognised as 'Britain's Best Driver's Car' at the 2025 Autocar Awards. This accolade follows a thorough three-day evaluation of top performance cars. The judges highlighted the Artura's exceptional handling, hybrid powertrain, and driver confidence on the road. Its dynamic capabilities are designed to meet the expectations of even the most demanding drivers.
Autocar’s Editor, Mark Tisshaw, praised the Artura for its versatility. He noted, "The Artura’s versatility as a mid-engined supercar really is special. You feel like you could, perfectly comfortably, do the office commute in it, run errands and take it on trips away. And, because it’s so easy to get into and so lovely just to drive ‘normally’, you would want to. That singular usability also runs parallel with a level of performance, handling precision, control feedback and all-round driver engagement that absolutely nothing else could live with on track at Cadwell Park."
The Artura stands out with its 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged hybrid engine delivering 700PS. It merges V6 power with advanced electrification technology. This combination offers thrilling acceleration and an emotive sound while providing an all-electric E-mode for quieter drives when needed.
McLaren's focus on creating engaging driving experiences is evident in the Artura's design and performance features. The car boasts a driver-centric interior with optimised ergonomics and electro-hydraulic-assisted steering for superior feedback. These elements contribute to its reputation as a high-performance hybrid supercar.
Nick Collins, CEO of McLaren Group Holdings, expressed pride in Autocar’s recognition of the Artura: "Autocar’s recognition of the Artura as Britain’s Best Driver’s Car is a proud moment for everyone at McLaren who has been involved with developing Artura into a standout supercar. This award is a testament to our relentless focus to craft supercars that truly connect with the driver to deliver unforgettable driving experiences."
The Artura also offers extensive personalisation options, allowing buyers to tailor their supercar according to their preferences and lifestyle needs. This flexibility ensures each owner can create a unique vehicle that meets their specific demands.
