The McLaren Artura debuted in 2021 as the brand’s first-ever series-production plug-in hybrid supercar designed and built from the ground up in almost a decade.
The Artura is also the most fuel-efficient McLaren model to date, capable of delivering north of 21km/l.
Artura is also the first model to be built on an all-new hybrid powertrain-specific McLaren Carbon Lightweight Architecture (MCLA).
It’s powered by a new Ricardo-sourced 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 engine (M630), with hybrid assistance from a 94bhp electric motor.
The electric motor draws power from a 7.4kWh battery pack, which offers an electric-only driving range of 30km, which can be consumed while driving at speeds of up to 130km/h.
Thanks to a kerb weight of just 1,498kg, the Artura does the 0-100km/h run in just three seconds, which is only 0.2 of a second slower than the $1 million+ McLaren P1.
The powertrain also benefits from an all-new eight-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox, which integrates McLaren’s first-ever electronic differential.
The 0-200km/h sprint is done in 8.3 seconds, and the top speed is electronically limited to 330km/h.
The Artura’s frunk (front trunk) offers a luggage capacity of up to 160 litres. It also stores the plug-in vehicle charger.
