McLaren's 3.0L twin-turbo V6 plug-in hybrid mid-engined supercar, the first McLaren PHEV on NZ roads.
Last reviewed: 23 April 2026
The Artura is McLaren's first series-production plug-in hybrid supercar, launched in 2022 with a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 paired to an axial-flux electric motor for approximately 680 PS combined system output, and extended with the Artura Spider in 2024. NZ supply runs through Giltrap McLaren Auckland on new allocation with a developing Approved Pre-Owned flow beginning to appear on earlier 2022 and 2023 coupes. The Artura qualifies for PHEV tier pricing at some specialist asset-finance lenders and the reduced $38 per 1,000 km Road User Charges rate, which shifts the finance conversation against equivalent 750S V8 or GT V8 applications. Carbon MonoCell II chassis carries across from the 720S line, which means the lender pre-purchase inspection conversation on any future Artura used stock will mirror the established 720S approach.

Financing notes
At $440,000 across a 4-year term at an indicative 9.5% specialist asset-finance rate with PHEV tier eligibility, the weekly lands around $2,555, or roughly $11,100 a month. Shortening to 3 years pushes the weekly to roughly $3,280 but cuts total interest by more than a third. Artura residuals are too new for settled NZ data, but early international signals suggest the car behaves closer to standard-run McLaren on residuals than to limited-allocation variants. Specialist lenders typically hold terms to 3 to 4 years on Artura with a 30 to 40% deposit while local residual data develops across the first NZ delivery cycle.
Model-specific questions
At some specialist lenders, yes, typically 0.25 to 0.75 percentage points below equivalent 750S or GT V8 pricing. PHEV tier treatment is not universal across specialist lenders and depends on loan amount, age, and specific lender product. Confirm tier treatment explicitly when the specialist lender quotes, because not every lender extends PHEV pricing to exotic-segment applications at this price level, and some lenders apply km or age thresholds that can exclude older Artura cars once the Approved Pre-Owned pool develops.
On after-tax cost, Approved Pre-Owned Artura at 2 to 3 years old typically delivers a 15 to 25% price saving against new while retaining most of the 3-year McLaren factory warranty through Giltrap McLaren. First-wave Artura buyers paid an early-adopter premium, so later Approved Pre-Owned stock is often the stronger finance proposition for buyers without a specific allocation-driven new-car reason. Confirm remaining warranty balance and any software-update history through Giltrap before committing.

Disclaimer
A car loan is a commitment that runs for years, and repayments come out of the same pay cheque as everything else. Before committing, it is worth modelling the weekly and monthly cost against the household budget, which is what this site is built to help with. Borrowing at a level that stays comfortable on a bad week, not a good one, is widely regarded as the safer frame.
Carfinance.org.nz earns a commission from a partner brand when a visitor applies through this site and their application is approved. That commission is paid by the partner, not the applicant, and it does not influence the rate the lender offers. We refer every visitor to the same partner because they compare multiple New Zealand lenders on the applicant's behalf, so the recommendation is not driven by a sponsored deal. Every figure shown on this site is a modelled estimate based on the inputs entered; the actual rate, fees, and repayments are set by the lender after assessing the applicant's circumstances and own credit decision. Carfinance.org.nz is a calculator and information tool. We are not a lender, not a broker, and not a registered financial adviser. Any decision about whether a specific loan suits a specific situation is best made after talking with the lender, and for amounts that materially affect the household, with a registered financial adviser.
We are finalising our New Zealand finance partner. The calculator above is the whole tool, and the figures you have already worked out are yours to keep. Check back soon, the partner referral will go live here.
