What is a plug-in hybrid?
A plug-in hybrid is often described as a PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle). Similar to a fully electric vehicle, a plug-in hybrids’ battery needs to be ‘plugged-in’ and charged.

A PHEV can typically complete short or local journeys on battery power alone. In this instance, the McLaren Artura can drive 19 miles, at up to 81 mph, whilst in pure EV mode. A PHEV also has a combustion engine which kicks in once the battery runs out of charge. Once the vehicle’s range is used up, it will work like a normal hybrid, until recharged again. When used effectively, the fuel economy is exceptional.

Being a hybrid model doesn’t mean sacrificing power and performance. The McLaren Artura has an all-new twin-turbocharged V6 engine working in conjunction with an E-Motor to offer an exhilarating performance of 680PS. With impressive top speeds of 205 mph (330 km/h) and reaching 0-62 mph in 3.0 seconds, the Artura is a car for the driver.
