McLaren's new hybrid supercar has computer chips in its tires


(CNN) McLaren unveiled the Artura on Tuesday, a new hybrid supercar that is, relatively speaking, much more affordable than the British company's previous hybrid models. McLaren's other hybrid cars have been limited production hypercars, like the $2 million Speedtail and the $1 million P1. With a price tag of $225,000 in the US, the Artura is the first of McLaren's relatively mainstream supercars to have hybrid power. It can operate like other hybrid cars, storing up energy from the engine and from braking, but it can also be plugged in to charge. The Artura's Pirelli tires have computer chips embedded in them that can relay information, such as tire pressure and temperature.
