Maserati's Bold Leap into the Future: Electrifying News from the Italian Luxury Automaker
In a bold move that marks a new era for the Italian luxury automaker, Maserati has laid out its electrification plans, setting the stage for an exciting future. Spearheading Maserati's electrified lineup is the eagerly awaited GranTurismo Folgore, accompanied by the Grecale Folgore, heralding the brand's transition towards a greener future. But that's only the beginning of Maserati's electric odyssey.
- The GranTurismo Folgore and Grecale Folgore: This year, the automotive world will witness the debut of Maserati's electric ambitions with these two models leading the charge. With their impending launch in the United States, these vehicles symbolize Maserati's step into the future, albeit detailed specs for the Grecale crossover remain under wraps.
- The MC20 Electrified: Announced in 2020, the electric incarnation of the MC20 supercar is set to dazzle in 2025. Speculations suggest a 700-horsepower tri-motor setup, a figure that might get overshadowed by its spiritual cousin, the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale, boasting 750 hp and a range of approximately 240 miles. However, these numbers remain speculative as official details are scarce.
- A New Electric SUV in the Horizon: Maserati's electric lineup will expand further in 2027 with the introduction of a large electric SUV. There's a possibility of shared DNA with the forthcoming electric Jeep Wagoneer S, adding an intriguing layer to Maserati's electric venture.
- The Quattroporte's Electric Renaissance: Initially expected in 2025, the next generation of the iconic Quattroporte will now embrace the electric revolution in 2028. This delay adjusts the timeline but not the excitement surrounding the sedan's future.
Before these models grace the roads, Maserati will unveil the GranCabrio Folgore, a convertible variant of its electric grand tourer, scheduled for release this year. An audacious commitment accompanies these launches; Maserati vows that every new model henceforth will bear the electric mantle.
While welcoming the electric era, Maserati also bids adieu to its combustible past. The V-6 versions of the Ghibli and Levante will continue until they reach the end of their life cycle, marking the end of an era as Maserati pivots fully towards electrification.
This transition isn't just about new models but symbolizes a shift in ideology for Maserati. By embracing electrification, Maserati isn't merely following a trend; it's redefining its legacy and path forward in the luxury automotive landscape. The journey towards an electrified future is paved with anticipation and promises of unparalleled performance and sustainability, embodying the essence of innovation and luxury that Maserati stands for.
