McLaren unveils all-new, next-generation High-Performance Hybrid supercar - the McLaren Artura
17 Feb 2021

The all-new Artura is revealed as McLaren’s first-ever series-production High-Performance Hybrid (HPH) supercar
The distillation of more than half-a-century of McLaren’s expertise and experience in race- and road-car engineering
Blends thrilling performance, driving dynamics and engagement with EV driving capability
First model to be built on all-new McLaren Carbon Lightweight Architecture (MCLA), uniquely optimised for HPH powertrains and built in-house at the McLaren Composites Technology Centre (MCTC) in the Sheffield region
Lightweight body featuring superformed aluminium and carbon fibre has perfect supercar proportions; ‘form follows function’ design philosophy gives ‘shrink-wrapped’ pure and functional look
Class-leading power-to-weight ratio of 488PS/tonne* (at lightest dry weight of 1,395kg*)
Super-lightweight engineering makes the Artura lightest in its class with kerb weight (DIN) of just 1,498kg*
Powertrain comprises all-new twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 petrol engine with an E-motor and energy-dense battery pack, producing combined outputs of 680PS (671bhp) and 720Nm (530lb ft)
585PS (577bhp) – approaching 200 horsepower per litre – and 585Nm from all-new V6
95PS E-motor delivers instant torque of up to 225Nm, ensuring sharpest-ever throttle response from a McLaren supercar and ferocious acceleration: 0-100km/h in 3.0 seconds*; 0-200km/h in 8.3 seconds*; and 0-300km/h in 21.5 seconds*
The Artura is the most fuel-efficient McLaren ever produced (50+mpg, 129g/km CO2 in combined EU WLTP*); 7.4kWh battery supports 30km* electric-only range
Five-year vehicle warranty; six-year battery warranty and 10-year body warranty
All-new lightweight eight-speed transmission integrates McLaren’s first electronic-differential
New rear suspension concept, uprated electro-hydraulic steering and Proactive Damping Control enhance agility, stability and dynamic performance
Next-generation Pirelli P ZERO™ CORSA tyres with innovative Pirelli Cyber Tyre® technology offer grip levels comparable to the extreme P ZERO™ Trofeo R tyres of the 600LT
Completely new interior with all key controls accessible with hands on the wheel; new 8in HD touchscreen infotainment system enabling configuration of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS); and smartphone mirroring
Ground-breaking electrical architecture enables Over-The-Air (OTA) updates, integrated stolen vehicle tracking (available in certain markets) and future upgrades
Available to order now (depending on market); choice of four specifications with UK pricing from £185,500*
The all-new McLaren Artura is revealed today, marking the beginning of both a new chapter for the pioneering luxury supercar company and a new era in supercar technology and performance.

McLaren’s first series-production High-Performance Hybrid supercar focuses more than half a century of the company’s racing and road-car experience and expertise into a next-generation supercar that blends ground-breaking technology with McLaren’s dedication to pure driver engagement.

Underpinned by the McLaren philosophy of super-lightweight engineering, the all-new Artura is the distillation of every attribute inherent in a McLaren – distinctive design, unrivalled performance, dynamic excellence and engineering innovation – with electrification now bringing the additional benefits of even faster throttle response, lower emissions and being able to run in pure EV mode for emissions-free journeys of up to 30km*.

All-new from the ground up, the Artura presented McLaren engineers and designers with new opportunities to innovate, chief among these being how to preserve McLaren’s super-lightweight engineering philosophy when adding hybrid powertrain elements including an E-motor and battery pack.

A demanding programme of weight reduction, encompassing every area of the Artura from the chassis platform – this is the debut of the new McLaren Carbon Lightweight Architecture (MCLA) – through the uniquely compact HPH powertrain system to the weight of cabling used in the electrical systems (where a 10% reduction was achieved), resulted in the Artura having a lightest dry weight of 1,395kg*. The total weight of hybrid components is just 130kg (which includes an 88kg battery pack and 15.4kg E-motor), resulting in a DIN kerbweight of 1,498kg* which is on par with comparable supercars that do not have hybrid powertrains, giving the Artura a super-lightweight advantage.
