Qais Sedqi, who owns a McLaren 765LT, was clearly impressed by the driving dynamics and superior performance of the McLaren Artura.
Qais Sedqi, the famous businessman and founding member of the Supercar Club, which is the largest gathering of supercar owners in the Middle East, experienced the thrill of driving the Artura, the first high-performance hybrid supercar from McLaren, on the “Pure McLaren” racing day held at the Pure McLaren track. Silverstone is the home of British motor racing and a long-term fixture in the Formula 1 calendar.
Qais, who is also known for his Instagram account under the name Gloves in Grey, traded in his beloved McLaren 765LT, which was allocated to him at McLaren Special Operations (MSO), for an Artura, to participate in a day of excitement and excitement on the track. Supervised by McLaren professional driver, former Grand Prix champion and European GT4 champion, Joe Osborne. At the end of the day, Qais praised the Artura’s high dynamic capabilities and its lightweight V6 hybrid propulsion system.
Qais Sedqi said: “This car has a superior ability to deliver power, and I love that about it! When choosing Track Mode, we clearly feel the car’s interaction with the track, whether in handling the car, in the propulsion system, or in the active electronic stability control system.” It is a car that gives the driver a very enjoyable driving experience and builds a sense of confidence.
I enjoy my experience on this track and am very impressed with the exciting torque this hybrid system generates. “It is a great car and very fun to drive.”
Building on McLaren’s philosophy of ultra-lightweight engineering, the Artura is the first model to use the all-new McLaren Carbon Lightweight Architecture (MCLA), which has been uniquely upgraded for hybrid vehicles. The all-new 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 gasoline engine with an electric motor produces a combined power of 671 horsepower and 531 pound-feet of torque, while the 94-horsepower e-motor delivers an instantaneous 166 pound-feet of torque, ensuring the best throttle response. Ever in a McLaren with 0-60mph acceleration in 3.0 seconds. Performance is further enhanced by the vehicle’s curb weight of 3,303 pounds, the lightest in its class.
