Who it suits. Drivers wanting a two-seat rear-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid Short trips that fit within the 11-mile electric range Buyers with access to 240-volt charging
The Artura makes sense for a buyer focused on a compact electric allowance inside a gasoline-powered two-seater. Its 11-mile EPA range can cover only brief trips before the gasoline figures matter. The 39 MPGe combined rating recognizes its plug-in operation, while the 18 MPG combined rating shows the fuel cost after that electric portion. Rear-wheel drive, a turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder, and an automatic transmission define the mechanical layout. The yearly EPA fuel estimate is $4,550, so running expense remains a major part of the decision.
What it is
The Artura is a 2023 two-seat car from McLaren Automotive. It uses rear-wheel drive, gasoline, and plug-in hybrid power. Its engine is a 3.0-liter turbocharged six-cylinder paired with an automatic AM-S8 transmission.
The EPA numbers
The EPA rates the Artura for an 11-mile electric range. Its combined rating is 39 MPGe, with energy use of 86 kWh per 100 miles. On gasoline, it returns 18 combined MPG: 17 in city driving and 21 on the highway.
What it costs to run
EPA annual fuel cost is $4,550. That figure reflects the Artura's 18 combined MPG gasoline rating. Charging at 240 volts takes 3.5 hours in the listed EPA figure.
How its figures compare
The Artura's highway rating is 4 MPG higher than its city rating, at 21 versus 17 MPG. Its 18 combined MPG sits between those two results. The plug-in figures present a separate view: 39 combined MPGe and an 11-mile EPA range.
Who it suits
The Artura suits a driver who wants a two-seat, rear-wheel-drive plug-in hybrid and whose regular trips can fit within its 11-mile EPA electric range. Its 240-volt charge time is listed as 3.5 hours.
Trade-offs
The plug-in system adds an electric range rating and a 39 MPGe combined figure, but gasoline use remains central to its EPA profile: 18 combined MPG and $4,550 in annual fuel cost. City driving is rated at 17 MPG, below the 21 MPG highway figure.
Verdict
Choose the Artura for its specific combination of two-seat packaging, rear-wheel drive, and plug-in capability. The numbers point to short electric trips rather than long electric travel, followed by gasoline driving with an 18 MPG combined rating. A 240-volt connection can replenish its listed charging requirement in 3.5 hours.
