That’s right - McLaren has finally released a convertible version of its hybrid sports car. However, while the roof may have changed, much of the rest of the car is the same. So the question is, does the Spider edition warrant the £221,500 price tag, when the standard Artura ‘only’ costs £202,000? Let’s take a closer look… In terms of the design, the exterior is almost identical to the standard Artura - but that’s not exactly a bad thing! This means the front end has several vents, with each one serving a purpose. Along the side, you realise just how low down the car is, and there are huge air vents to be found on either side. Around the back, there are yet more vents to help cool the engine, as well as a large diffuser. All in, it looks pretty stunning! On the inside, the Artura Spider is super minimalistic. Most of the functionality is controlled through a small infotainment screen, although to be honest, it can be a bit laggy. The centre console holds buttons for the drive selector, and there’s a set of digital dials that move along with the steering column. The materials throughout the cabin are all well-made and feel expensive, but what more would you expect from a car that costs this much! The Artura Spider is powered by a 3-litre twin-turbo V6 coupled with an electric motor. It’s the same engine as in the standard Artura, but the power has been increased by 20hp, so it now produces a total of 700hp! This power is sent to the rear wheels only via an 8-speed dual-clutch gearbox. So is the Artura Spider the best choice? Or should you choose a different convertible sports car instead? Stick with Mat to see for yourself!
