Here in US my dealer called today saying July/August. Who knows

mclaren NB told me they ran out of 12V batteries and it’s affecting all cars… currrent eta is before November. I ordered mine the day after launch

I consider myself a patient person, but this has honestly been one of the hardest waits! Never imagined all the press and hype with a year delay beyond expected (as I was told Nov 2021 originally) — and only if you are right of course.

This year has made me reflect that I want to use as a daily driver to everywhere except my downtown area…given the fact that any car now only has max a 10-year value of life, best to use I think. The EPA mileage rating, sensors, carplay etc all lend to the driveability.

Does the car have 360 bird eye view for parking? I got the technology and practicality packs

Good luck to those who will have their Artura 😕
this is going to be a problem car
I am happy to have canceled my order, I prefer to wait for the spyder so that the problems will be solved.
I am disappointed by the communication of Mclaren
moreover the market will be flooded by a large number of cars which will be delivered at the same time

out of curiosity, how did they handle your deposit?

You are correct
View attachment 222615

so is this saying basically you should always have the car plugged in whenever possible?

I haven’t gotten any details about charging from dealer…is my regular socket enough?

 

[cabanaboy5]

Yes “The IC-CPD charging equipment provides a standard grounded power connection to residential building sockets from 100 V to 240 V 50/60 Hz (depending on the model variant) and a charging current of 6 A up to 16 A according to the specifications on the back label of the control box of your device.”

Think I should wait for car before looking into upgrading socket to higher amps? Will upgrading be better or any risk to battery?

My sales manager said my Artura order is projected to be delivered in December. I put in the order and deposit in May

that’s lucky. my order was May 2021

 

[cabanaboy5]

their demo unit. Will they actually sell it to you or is this just fishing ?

cool that it’s number 142. i like the look too of those seats!

 

[cabanaboy5]

Superfluous, when did you submit the order? I never got more concrete dates like others but submitted in May 2021.

Also nice spec!

Per my dealer this morning, customer deliveries will begin in the US during October (thus confirming what others have posted). My November FOK date remains unchanged. Fingers firmly crossed.

 

[cabanaboy5]

yeah I’d be nervous to track this car (whenever it does come) without any clear sense of whether tires and parts are truly available.

 

[cabanaboy5]

Today I was told November delivery. Ordered May 2021

The winters (and other cyber tires) have been lsited on tirerack for a long time but as backorder with no date.

 

[cabanaboy5]

my Nov date pushed back to Dec…at this point will only believe when I see

 

[cabanaboy5]

I'm a low 600s VIN and the latest is that my Artura is on a boat, expected to port in Baltimore 1st week of December. Delivery expected 3rd week in December at my local dealership. I was previously given Sept, Oct and Nov delivery ETAs.

Finally got my VIN today and I’m same range as you…

Dealer called and said we locked in 2022 pricing…which I think saves us a net of 20K ballpark. Anyone else know details on 2022 pricing vs 2023? Think she was trying to make me feel better about the delays and false promises

 

[cabanaboy5]

If I’m expecting delivery around Christmas, then when do you guys suggest asking my insurance company if they will cover? Got VIN recently with window spec sheet in pdf

 

[cabanaboy5]

My order was supposed to be complete by 11/11, but status is still "IN PROGRESS". The batch before that were shipped out. I was informed today that Asia Pacific branch office will be announcing something to the dealerships next week. It's getting better and better.

oh man I’m getting so impatient.
