The McLaren Artura Spider MCL39 Championship Edition is the Woking-based manufacturer’s first high-performance hybrid uncovered

by Francesco Michienzi

McLaren Automotive pays tribute to McLaren Racing’s tenth Formula 1 Constructors’ World Championship title.

   The 3-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol engine is coupled with an electric motor (an axial-flux motor). It features rear-wheel drive and an 8-speed automatic transmission. In terms of performance alone, this model can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 3 seconds and attain a top speed of 330 km/h. It is the styling features and the numerous details across the bodywork and aboard that define this special edition of the Artura Spider MCL39 Championship Edition. These include the hand-painted livery, featuring a shade that blends MSO Bespoke Myan Orange (orange) and Onyx Black.

The exterior features are enhanced by the Black Pack and the super-lightweight, gloss-black, ten-spoke Dynamo forged alloy wheels, with McLaren Myan Orange brake callipers contrasting with the black McLaren logos, complemented by the Stealth Badge package and the sports exhaust with a Stealth Exhaust finish. The number 10 stands out on the sides, appearing both as a numeral (also featured on the headrests) and as stars, which are also found in the MSO Bespoke interior, with a 12 o’clock marker on the steering wheel in Myan Orange.

Each model will feature a personalised plaque on the centre console, emphasising the car’s exclusivity. The Track Record, located in the boot, details the wins, pole positions, and fastest laps achieved by the Woking-based team during the 2025 F1 World Championship season. The interior boasts Alcantara Performance Carbon Black and Jet Black Nappa leather, while the door sills, finished in satin-finish carbon fibre, will be hand-signed by the F1 team’s drivers, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri.
