2025 Maserati GranCabrio Folgore

At the beginning of March, Maserati presented its new powerful sports convertible that combines tradition and innovation, raw engineering and Italian elegance, the GranCabrio. Now it is launching the first luxury electric convertible, the Maserati GranCabrio Folgore.

The GranCabrio Folgore is the Italian manufacturer’s third electric car that shares an 800-volt system with its first electric car, the GranTurismo Folgore. Also, the GranCabrio Folgore will be powered by three electric motors with a total power of more than 1,200 hp (895 kW). However, power is limited to “just” 762 hp (568 kW) and 996 lb-ft (1,350 Nm) of torque. That’s enough power to push the 2,340-kilogram heavy car to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.8 seconds with a top speed of 290 km/h (180 mph). If the driver wants more power (up to 830 hp/619 kW) he can achieve it with the MaxBoost option.

The car comes with all-wheel drive as standard, while RWD is available as an option. There is also an option to send power to only one of the rear wheels, which is similar to an electronically controlled differential. It should be noted that drivers will be able to choose between four drive modes: Max Range, GT, Sport and Corsa.

The Maserati GranCabrio Folgore is equipped with a 92.5 kWh battery pack located in the floor that ensures a range of 445 km, with a single charge. Thanks to the 270-kilowatt fast chargers, the battery can be charged from 20 to 80 percent in just 18 minutes.

The first deliveries are expected by the end of 2024 or the beginning of 2025, and each car will cost around 190,000 euros.

2023 Maserati GranTurismo Coupé

Maserati will soon introduce the latest generation of the GranTurismo Coupé, which will be powered by an internal combustion engine. The car should appear on the market next year, and the Italian car manufacturer has published photos of the future car.

The new Gran Turismo pays homage to the A6 1500 model that was produced 75 years ago. It will be powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter Nettuno engine with 621 hp and 538 lb-ft (729 Nm) of torque. The engine is paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission and reaches 62 mph in 2.9 seconds with a top speed of 201 mph (323 km/h). Also, the GT GranCabrio will be powered by the same engine, but Maserati did not reveal its performance.

At the beginning of the year, Maserati presented its second crossover Maserati Grecale powered by the same engine that in its most powerful version Trofeo delivers 530hp (390 kW) and 457 lb-ft (620 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to all wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. According to Maserati, it reaches 60 in 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 177 mph (285 km/h).

Maserati’s plan is to electrify all its cars by the end of the decade. In addition to these models, which will arrive on the market in 2023, Maserati will electrify the Quattroporte, Levante and MC20 models by 2025. The Maserati GranTurismo Folgore should hit the market in 2024, and will be powered by three electric motors that will produce a total of 1,200 hp (883 kW), which is enough to reach 62 mph in 2.6 seconds with a maximum speed of 320 km/h.
