McLaren Artura Spider MCL39 Introduced in Success of 10th F1 Championship

McLaren has introduced the Artura Spider MCL39 Championship Edition, a limited-production model created to mark the company’s 10th Formula 1 World Constructors' Championship. The special edition will be restricted to just 10 units worldwide and has been developed by McLaren Special Operations.

Based on the Artura Spider, the MCL39 Championship Edition draws a direct link to McLaren’s 2025 Formula 1 campaign. The car takes its name from the MCL39 F1 car that secured the Constructors’ title during the season, and the changes are focused on design and cabin detailing, while the mechanical package remains unchanged.

On the outside, the Artura Spider MCL39 Championship Edition features a hand-painted finish combining Myan Orange and Onyx Black. The livery includes multiple references to the milestone, such as ‘10’ motifs with stars and outlines of McLaren’s previous championship-winning Formula 1 cars. The exterior also gets a Black Pack, gloss black forged alloy wheels, orange brake calipers, stealth badging, and a sports exhaust with a darkened exhaust finisher. Each example is individually numbered to reflect the limited production run.

Inside, the layout mirrors the standard Artura Spider, with additional elements linked to the title-winning season. The cabin uses carbon fibre trim, Alcantara and Nappa leather upholstery, with contrast detailing in McLaren orange. The seat headrests feature special ‘10’ embroidery, while a bespoke plaque on the centre console highlights the car’s championship edition status. Extended carbon fibre sill finishers are hand-signed by Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri, and list race wins from the 2025 season. A separate plaque in the front luggage compartment records McLaren’s wins, pole positions and fastest laps from the year.

Powering the Artura Spider MCL39 Championship Edition is the same plug-in hybrid setup as the standard model. This includes a 3.0L twin-turbo V6 paired with an electric motor, producing close to 690 bhp and 720Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, with electric-only driving capability and plug-in charging retained.

Only 10 units of the McLaren Artura Spider MCL39 Championship Edition will be offered globally. Pricing has not been announced and is expected to be positioned above the standard Artura Spider.
