McLaren Artura launch pushed back due to chips shortage

KUALA LUMPUR: McLaren unveiled its all-new high-performance hybrid supercar, the Artura, back in February.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • When will McLaren Artura launch?

    The McLaren Artura launch has been pushed back to July 222 due to the ongoing chip shortage issue.
  • How much does McLaren Artura cost?

    The McLaren Artura price tag reads $225,000, which is approximately equal to RM 937,376.
  • A few days back, we reported the delayed launch of the Maserati Grecale due to the same reasons. With this prolonged semiconductor crisis, several other auto brands are also affected. The automakers have been facing serious issues with their production and delivery of cars, resulting in huge business losses. The list of impacted car brands includes Toyota, Nissan, BMW, Alfa Romeo, etc. Consumers, on the other hand, are also facing troubles due to prolonged waiting periods. 

    Coming back to the McLaren Artura, the supercar features a sleek design inside and out. It is equipped with an eight-inch high-resolution infotainment unit, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity along with over-the-air updates, 10-way power-adjustable sports seats with heating, a Pirelli Noise Canceling System, Alcantara, Nappa leather upholstery, dual-zone automatic climate control, front/rear parking sensors and ADAS systems like adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and road sign recognition.

    Powering the McLaren Artura is a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 mill, coupled with an axial flux e-motor combined producing a maximum power output of 671 horsepower and a peak torque of 730 Nm. Broken down, the V6 pumps out 577 hp and 584 Nm, while the e-motor delivers 94 hp and 225 Nm. The powertrain is coupled with a 7.4 kWh battery pack, offering 30 km all-electric power alone.

    With a rear-wheel-drive system, the Artura can hit the century sprint in just three seconds, 0-200 kmph mark in 8.3 seconds, and 0-300 kmph in 21.5 seconds. The top speed is rated at 330 mph.

    The McLaren Artura price tag reads $225,000, which is approximately equal to RM 937,376.
