McLaren Automotive has developed a bespoke McLaren Artura model on the occasion to honour Queen Elizabeth II's 70-year reign. To celebrate the Platinum Jubilee of Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, the special McLaren Artura has been given a platinum paint and also a special badge has been created by McLaren Special Operations (MSO), the company's in-house bespoke division, to mark the occasion. This custom-made McLaren Artura is a high-performance hybrid supercar, informed the British luxury supercar maker.
A special badge has been developed that has been placed at the nose of the car. To create this one-off badge that says Elizabeth II, McLaren informed that its MSO and advanced coating partner AkzoNobel analysed different lighting conditions to define the most suitable metallic pigment combination. Following this, MSO’s paint developers then formulated the desired platinum composition which took eight days to complete that included durability and application testing.
