2025 McLaren Artura Spider: The Electrified Convertible Supercar

Abu Dhabi : Pricing starts at approximately AED 1.2 million, depending on customisation.

McLaren introduces the Artura Spider, the convertible version of its hybrid supercar. With increased power, an open-top design, and refined comfort, it delivers a thrilling yet practical supercar experience. Without wasting time, let's see what the Artura Spider has to offer.

McLaren Unleashes the Artura Spider

McLaren has officially introduced the Artura Spider, the latest addition to its hybrid supercar lineup. Retaining the sleek aerodynamics of the coupe, the Spider now features a retractable hardtop that opens in just 11 seconds at speeds of up to 50 kph. Despite this, the weight increase is minimal, keeping it lighter than many competitors.

Interior: A Blend of Luxury and Technology

Inside, the Artura Spider maintains McLaren’s driver-focused cockpit. The seats come in high-quality leather and Alcantara, with optional heated and memory functions for added comfort. A digital instrument cluster moves with the steering column, ensuring optimal visibility. The infotainment system features an 8-inch touchscreen, now angled more towards the driver and equipped with Apple CarPlay support.

Storage remains limited due to the mid-engine layout, but a small front trunk, or “frunk,” provides space for essentials. Improved noise insulation also enhances comfort when the roof is up, making highway cruising quieter.

Electrified Performance and Hybrid Efficiency

The Artura Spider is powered by a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 hybrid engine, producing 691 hp and 720 Nm of torque. Power is sent through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission, ensuring lightning-fast gear shifts. Performance highlights includes:

• 0-100 kph: 3.0 seconds.
• Top speed: 330 kph.
• Electric-only range: 33 km

Driving in electric mode allows for silent city cruising, but as soon as acceleration is needed, the V6 engine roars to life, delivering an exhilarating experience.

Ride Comfort and Handling

McLaren has fine-tuned the Artura Spider’s Proactive Chassis Control, enhancing both handling and ride comfort. A revised electronic differential and improved suspension tuning make it more usable for daily driving while retaining its track-ready agility.

Compared to the 750S, the Artura Spider offers a smoother ride, soaking up road imperfections more effectively.

Pricing and Final Verdict

The 2025 McLaren Artura Spider builds on the coupe’s strengths, offering open-top excitement without compromising performance. With a starting price of around AED 1.2 million in the UAE, it presents a compelling option for those seeking a hybrid supercar with McLaren’s signature driving dynamics.

For those who desire a balance of speed, efficiency, and everyday usability, the Artura Spider proves to be an electrified masterpiece.
