Looking ahead, we will shortly welcome the Artura to India, the all-new high-performance hybrid supercar," McLaren Automotive Managing Director - APAC and China - Paul Harris noted.

The company's retail outlet in Mumbai will offer sales, aftersales and servicing on the complete range of McLaren models. The supercar manufacturer said it will offer the breadth of its model range to Indian customers, including the Everyday McLaren GT and the marque's first ever high-performance hybrid Artura.
