ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ก.ค. 2022
- McLaren have released the Artura, an all-new model that features a hybrid V6 powertrain, combining a twin-turbo V6 with an electric battery. The car can do up to 11 miles of range on the electric motor and creates 671 horsepower.
Chris gets shown around the car by Jamie Corstorphine, Director of Product Strategy, and also takes it for a drive with some sideways action!
Let us know what you think in the comments below about the new McLaren and whether you would buy one!

I love how Chris isn’t afraid to slate Mclarens build quality right in front of them haha
🧂
I love that Mclaren can take it, unlike Ferrari who didn't like being called out on their testing procedures for magazines.
@@gpaje But, you still like the pasta, right?
Finally got the eff you money needed to be a good car journo
@@gpaje Because Ferrari was called out on absolute BS with no evidence.
Finally you give us a full Chris Harris segment. no special effects just pure motor journalism. Thank you Chris.
It's almost perfect, but missing onboards shots. I don't wanna watch his face, when he drive on the track 😆
Lol...he must've had a few espressos this morning.🤣
Thats because its not a top gear video
this isn't a top gear upload xD
Top Gear is not a good fit for Chris Harris.
"Functional jewelery " "oh, that's on an internal PowerPoint presentation isn't it.... because my dog also has functional jewels" - Chris Harris, 2022
😆😆😆
"They serve a different purpose there..." Jamie w/the quick comeback too!

First proper non-TopGear car review from Harris in how many years?
Back to the great TH-cam videos we originally followed you for, thank you
Yeah, TG was a great launch vehicle for Chris, but I have been waiting for this little gem to shine on his own again. No matter where he goes, there's spit, polish...and shine!
Carry on!
You'll find that between his Collecting Cars pieces, and his Chris Harris Drives segments, he's still been doing his fair share of deep-dive reviews. You just have to search a little harder for them on TH-cam.
You got a link to any?
Yeah, I can't even watch his moronic, childish chavving around with the other two apes on Top Gear...it's just absolute idiocy. I guess nowadays the "Gear" in Top Gear comes from some kind of illegal substances? And I used to watch every single Top Gear episode (and Fifth Gear, and US Top Gear, and I still watch all the car stuff on TH-cam).
@@pistonburner6448 It's not just you that feels this way. That's all I can say. And, yes, I have been watching for over 20 years now.
Not many journalists have the clout to tell a manufacturer how it is right in front of them. Love it.
The real auto journalist is back speaking "normal" again. No forced TopGear choreographed over-excited sound bite childish sh*te. What a relief to our ears. Wonderful to have you back Chris! Well done McLaren, and much success with the Artura. Ye deserve it.
Finally! I find Top Gear unwatchable.. could watch this all day though.
It's a refreshing change
Chris Harris has become bolder and more assertive in his assessments. He is perhaps the only car journalist around who can command that level of authority apart from Harry Catchpole or Harry Metcalfe.
Henry Catchpole just orgasms dramatically at every car he drives with faux amazement. Chris is just real. They're nothing like each other.
@@Jinsun202 Hmm, I see where you are coming from. I like to think of Catchpole's work as veering on the poetic side. I suspect Harry is the better writer and Chris is the better presenter perhaps.
Jason Cammisa on the other side of the pond also deserves a shout i reckon..
Henry Catchpole lol
They're all trying very hard to be more edgy than the other, doesn't suit them
Bless, nearly 20 minutes of Chris Harris. On TH-cam. Happy days
I really like this format. Everybody is up front and honest about their bias, and it's a pretty laid back review. Even though Macca might need a hard seller right now, Chris refuses to be that man. Cheers!
Surely there's space on a Sunday evening for a Chris Harris on Cars on mainstream TV. I don't think there's a better car journalist out there who delivers the goods than this fella and his team. Time to go solo Harris and drop the top gear cling-ons.
Chris was really taking the piss with this kind man 🤣
Yes I thought that too.
Being quite rude really… shame as he used to treat all the various ‘brand ambassadors’ with such respect
@@talisman250 on the other hand he was just speaking his mind. The talking over was a bit rude
Chris and Jamie used to work together at Autocar Magazine. I think Chris was his boss.
@@jryalls oh that makes more sense
I appreciate Chris Harris puts time an effort into these videos on top of his Top Gear gig. Thank you Harris!
lol, nice to see ex-Autocar Jamie Corstorphine and ex-Autocar Chris Harris have some banter on video in 2022 👍
Going into spooowt mode? Harris showing subtle appreciation for Smith and sniff.
I like Top Gear, but I wish Paddy would just shut up, this is why I love Chris Harris, just a brilliant car journalist, thank you for these videos, Rj in Oz
Best looking McLaren since the F1.. more of this please. If they continue on this trajectory I might consider buying one of their cars.
Ahem, the P1 perchance??
The p1 wins for me. F1 is............ehh
I think the front-end is better looking than any other McClaren ever made.
The taillights are touch anodyne and it’s a bit slab-sided. But I think it will age well. Looks more sophisticated than their other designs IMO. Sounds much better than other cats too!
the p1 is still awesome tho
I'm guessing Neil shot this but those driving shots where the camera car goes straight through and chris hits the chicane then they cross on the next turn was amazing. They work so well together to make a beautiful film!
Yes! Neil and the Grip Productions team
What time?
@@uGotGot1618 well food will be ready around 7:30 so if you want to come around 7:10 to help setup
@@uGotGot1618 between 14:30-14:45 very short but coordinated and excellent!
If I tried to attempt what Chris Harris pulled at @17:38 I’d be sitting in the tire wall with grass all over the windshield and my pants full of sh*t.
I don't believe any car journalist has ever combined driving skill, motor industry insight and media footprint better than Chris Harris. From a driving skill standpoint, he's clear over the horizon from any other primary TG presenter since the 2002 reboot. You'll note that I said "primary" - I'm not saying Chris is better than peak Eddie Jordan, or the late (and dearly missed!) Sabine Schmitz - come on now! And yes, that _"since the reboot"_ qualifier was also very necessary, because Tiff Needell 😉
None of the journalists who I put at least within hailing distance of him from a driving skill perspective, like Jethro Bovingdon (who might be better!), Henry Catchpole, Steve Sutcliffe (who's _definitely_ better), Ollie Marriage, Tiff (of course!), etc. match Chris' overall media profile. Likewise, I don't think that any of them clearly exceed his overall grasp of the industry (though several of them are certainly _comparable_ in that regard).
Back to the pure driving skill part, as evidenced by that track run: he's pretty good, isn't he? Though I'll note that every name I mentioned above would have been able to execute at a similar level, I think.
I'll always remember that he came within _one second_ of a current Formula One driver's time around Silverstone in a 765LT on Series 31 of Top Gear... _after_ said driver had run his lap and _then_ done a rip-snorting burnout to take his tires down.
Bro thank God you have this channel. I missed the old "Chris Harris On Cars" before you joined Top Gear.
the quality of this, the drone shots, the unfiltered Harris, the color grading, the continuity. A proper piece of journalism.
One thought on the car, does anyone else feel unnerved by how much the drivers seat moves and flexes under load as Chris chucks it around the track? hopefully that will be sorted in the production model.
Unfiltered Chris Harris is motor journalism gold. When he's not on the Top Gear TV show, you can tell that he's well into the zero-fucks-given stage of his career... and petrolheads are all the better off for it.
You could say he holds all the cards these days. He could annoy a manufacturer and they could ban him, but then their product isn’t on the biggest motoring TV show in the world. He really can say what he wants and they sort of have to take it.
So good to see Harris doing you tube vids again and not all that top gear jokes and giggles stuff
👌
At the same time I also enjoy the fun and crazy stunts they do at TG nowadays :)
Top gear is utter garbage, he sold out for the money. Bent over for dollars
Based on the way Chris said SPORT when putting it into that mode, I think he’s been listening to Smith and Sniff.
SPPOOORRRRRTTTTT
I don't think anyone could ever describe Chris as a sycophant. Love the way there's no filter.
Dear Chris, Did you get your bangers and the rest at the BBC canteen. It's great to see you making REAL honest commentary about cars again, and that V6 sounds awesome in a very bouncy McLaren
It really shows the difference between Top Gear and this independent production. Chris has more freedom and can add in some real thoughts about a vehicle
I like the way he slowly makes his way around to the driver side door! Also, I've searched the entire web to find a video of him driving this car. No one beats up on a car better than he does!
The chimney is where the fire comes out.
It’s the extinguisher port.
🤣🤣🤣
Chris - I say whatever the F- I want, whenever I want - Harris... @ 5:10. Luv this man to pieces, honestly the best
This will never get old
Look forward to this content more than TG . Not going to lie … Keep it up Chris
Loved the ending, Chris talks about his lunch! Funny
Thanks for giving it away
@@Fluterra well don’t read the comments until after you watch the video
As an American I'm trying to figure out what he said he had there. Lol
@@RYTF5 Ball of pork bits rolled together.
Epic! As a former 720s owner who tracked it. Hearing what Chris has to say about a car is worth its weight in gold. Especially when it comes to track!
why did you sell 720s? Current whip is..?
@@user-ht9fr6eh9u made money in it after driving her for over a year (2 seasons). I stay in Ontario, Canada so we have garbage weather 6-7 months of the year. Currently I drive a 2006 Camry 😂
@@RizM820 how would you rate Huracan.Performante v 720s? Thanks
@@RizM820 How refreshing is it to be able to park it (the Camry) anywhere or to kerb it and not have a heart attack?
My Mum asked what car I'd buy if she won lotto and gave me a few million. I told her I'd get another Fiesta; I like fast and expensive cars, I just don't want to deal with owning one.
@@user-ht9fr6eh9u I test drove a Performante on the same day as a 720s. The 720s makes the Performante seem slow. The only thing the Perf has on the 720s is that exhaust note.
Another quality video with Chris👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏽
Great to see Jamie post Autocar!
Proud of the surfacing of this, great little team
Must say the McClaren "Project Manager" stayed Stoic and Solidified in his nature correlating w/ Chris. Good interview.
Loved the ending, brilliant, 👍
Harris is the best motor journalist on the planet, no contest.
Agree with Chris, I was very confused why initially the motoring journalists were comparing this to the 296. hybrid considerations aside, the 296 is one level up in terms of price and speed.... This artura is more of competitor to the huracan, r8s, nsx, and the mc20 which is perhaps the biggest rival being released at the same time with roughly the same performance figures and price.
I like the understated look of this one.
Sweet ride, thank you 👍👍👍👍
Brilliant! Just as I was thinkin about all the videos that are out there of disgruntled Mclaren owners for one reason or another and Chris calls out the issue with panel gaps and quality control in front of a Mclaren rep. Very nice! Love the honest and brusque and brazen exchange e.g. 'functional jewelry' and Chris's dog. Lol!
The viper face is really quite appealing, as is the overall body shape. Very nice design.
One of the best looking McLarens so far.
Would love an MC20 though 🤣
My favorite car channel! Legendary reviewer
"But I'm in grave danger of decorating the dashboard right now" what a very and beautifully British way of saying it!
Otherwise I think it's another stunner and impressive car from McLaren!
Great review and glad Chris kept his lunch down
Quite the curmudgeonly start on Mr. McLaren, et quite analytical once behind the wheel. Nicely done.
Yes I also thought Chris was being a bit hard on that gentleman.
@@philtucker1224 chris used to be his boss at autocar... they are very good friends i believe.
Yea I agree I really like Chris and have followed him for years , but felt he was a bit over bolshy tbh shall we call it the “Gilet” effect ?;)
Nice work by the sound engineer keeping the wind noise out. Didn't go unnoticed mate.
These videos are so much better, than those over produced Top Gear clips with all their fast cuts, camera shake, music and effects etc.
Love the score on these videos
13:34
...go ahead Chris...give 'em a scratch...the functional jewels that is...we're all friends here...
When a criticism/compliment is due or justified, Chris gives it full beans with objective analysis. In a media world when most influences just kiss the ass of car makers, its so refreshing. Just because its " New " and " Fresh " doesn't mean its without it faults or even worse than previous designs/productions.
Harris just woke up and decided to spit fire that day 🤣🤣 Jamie probably had the biggest exhale when the shoot ended
Nice to see a Smith & Sniff 'Spoooaaaaarrrttt' @14:23
I scrolled through the comments to see this hahaha
I reckon that multi link rear is necessary to accommodate the wider, flatter engine and McLaren are giving it some PR spin.
You would think so but he explicitly states the wishbone is at the top - so not a traditional MacPherson setup - which makes even less sense. Bizarre choice and a poor explanation from him.
@@ImBarryScottCSS I reckon the wishbone mounts above the cylinder head and the engine is lifted in from below. It's so unconventional having an upper wishbone and multilink lower. The AMG One has a really funky set up, which is deliberate for performance but I can't see the McLaren solution being down to anything other than packaging. Especially considering Chris' opinion of the rear end.
I will watch any car video you make Chris. Keep it up
This one reminds me of the old Top Gear. Great job Mr. Harris!!
How???..
@@atg1338 Clarkson use to talk so much smack right to the companies faces, which led to manufacturers making actual changes in the design to better suit the customer, resulting in more sales for set company. This is what made the show great in the first place, 3 people voice of the car enthusiast saying the things to the right people we could never. That is what Top Gear is about, pushing the manufactures to the limit.
@@atg1338 Top Gear used to review cars before all the adventure/challenge nonsense
With all these nonsense influencers and chancers flooding our feeds, we need to treasure having Chris in our lifetime!
I tell you what I love about Chris reviews, he is very subtlety telling you his truth if you read between the lines without upsetting the manufacturer.
Yes Chris is back, love it!
Thats what i love about chris is that he doesnt matter learning new things hence the polstar, time and place for ev/phevs etc....
Had the pleasure of driving this a few weeks ago. It is unbelievable how quickly it picks up pace. Very well rounded supercar.
@Modern Classic Collectables like every supercar brand i guess. Ferrari have been flogging the same mid engined v8 and front engined v12 car design language since like 2012. A non-enthusiast would be unable to tell the difference between a an f12/812 if you showed them pictures back to back.
@Modern Classic Collectables says the morris minor driver
Would love to see more interior shots and info on the interior design
The audio sounds raw but I love the reviews 🤘
That weight figure is really impressive. Sounds more like a sports car over a supercar. 911 beater perhaps
Great review
These are gonna be everywhere in Wilmslow and Alderley Edge soon.
I can't deny, i doubt i could pull this out of a lineup from any other McLaren from the front though...
One of my favourite Chris Harris reviews was his first encounter with the McLaren 570S at Portimao. He loved that.
So, Chris, how does the Artura compare to that? My impression from this vid is that, despite its great steering and mega-power, you preferred the 570S...
We love Chris ❤
Who is "we"? And have you guys asked him to marry you already?
Loving the optical illusion at the beginning 🤣
Lovely review.A world class car
I was lucky enough to get a ride in one of these beauties on saturday...Absolutely loved it!!!
Impossible not to love Chris
Here is a question... if the battery gets you to the moors for your blast, do you then have to warm the engine up also? usually by the time I reach the moors my engine is primed and ready.
He crazy sometimesX this a great looking car, great improvement in look from 570
Recent Top Gear has totally lost me. I watched a repeat the other night, and the Paddy, Freddie & Chris Bantz is painful, I think. But, straight up reviews like this from Chris - great!
Chris is the only one who international viewers will understand too
It's dreadful and Christopher's ego is too big for his size 4 feet
Chris Harris facetious setting: 82%
Great and honest content
It does sound like a boxer at low revs and V6 like at high revs.
that intake howl at the top end sounds very Porsche to me to be honest
testing that at Llandow is just insanity!
A new fan 🙏🏽
I see a Chris Harris film, I click
The Sound!
Chris is a legend 💯
I'm watching Collecting Cars, you're Chris, and I'm James!
... Wait a second..
Classic Harris, icon!
Great car, great video. Like Top Gear, unplugged.
Been slightly jealous of past and present cars you've owned but I'm full blown green with envy that you have a Polestar One. Lucky, lucky man.
The sounds of 2/ Karts in the background 🥰
Did Harris slide a little smith and sniff references with the way he said SPOATS mode????
SPPPORRRTTAAHH
The B4235 chepstow to Usk is one of my favourite roads in the UK
I love Harris taking them to task on a bunch of things, but I think he was a little extra about it. This car is awesome
Free from the confines of broadcast tv Chris is back to his finest 👍👍👍👍
I enjoyed this Topgear episode, oh wait a minute...
Could have used a better mic in the car but really good journalism video overall. Thank you Chris and co.
Chris have come to a point where he speaks what he genuinely feels about the car; even infront of someone representing the manufacturer. Such a delight to watch!
More please 🙌
My 9 year old: "Why is the short guy being fussy and the other guy is just trying to do his job?"
The chimney comment. Classic Chris Harris. I've had a man crush on him for years now.
