Maserati MC20 Cielo with better aerodynamics and more power

In 2022, the Bavarian tuner Novitec presented a series of carbon components for the Maserati MC20 coupe, and now it does the same for the MC20 Cielo, giving the car a thrilling and individual appearance.

A special equipment package includes naked-carbon aerodynamic components such as a splitter, intake, hood vents and a ducktail rear spoiler. All of this can be combined with various exhaust upgrades including the system in the photos, which uses ultra-lightweight Inconel and optional gold accents. There are also yellow sport springs on offer that can bring the floor closer to the ground by 25 mm, and are compatible with the car’s factory front lift system. Also, customers can choose aluminum spacers for 28 or 40 mm wider wheel tracks on both axles.

When it comes to the interior, Novitec fulfills individual customer requests with exclusive interior appointments tailored to the wishes of the vehicle owner in every detail.

Under the bonnet is a 3.0-L V6 Nettuno twin-turbo engine with 711 hp (530 kW) and 603 lb-ft (818 Nm) of torque, which is 80 hp (59 kW) and 65 lb-ft (88 Nm) more than the standard model. The increase in power was achieved thanks to the N-Tronic module and the high-performance exhaust system, so now the MC20 Cielo accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 2.8 seconds (0.2 seconds faster) with a top speed of 325 km/h (202 mph).

Novitec also offers a set of 21-inch NF11 forged rims produced in cooperation with the American company Vossen.

2025 Maserati MCXtrema

In a few months, Maserati will premiere its new racing beast, the Maserati MCXtrema. The car is still in the testing phase and deliveries should start in Q3 2024.

Maserati hasn’t revealed a lot of information, but what we do know so far is that the MCXtrema will be powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 engine with 730 hp (540 kW) and 538 lb-ft (730 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 6-speed sequential gearbox and a limited-slip differential. The car has so far undergone 200 hours of simulator testing, as well as 1,000 hours of virtual analysis.

It will be equipped with the MCXlusiva programme that allows customers to choose between three variants: Tech Beast, Corse and Speed Beast. Also, they can choose two options for the color of the wheel rims, Matte Black or Grigio Corsa Bright, and three versions for the seats: Blue, Black or Ice.

“A wonderful creation made to devour the asphalt and trip through the curves, a true gem of mechanics and aerodynamics, perfect for balance and handling. With MCXtrema, we have raised the bar of development even further, working with the track in sight and always bearing in mind the needs of the Maserati customer, who remains the focus of our work and to whom this car is dedicated. The interior has been designed around the driver; we developed a cockpit as a cross between a fighter and a Formula 1 single- seater. MCXtrema is an evolution of the MC20 without type approval for the road: for the Trident’s super sports car par excellence, we had already worked obsessively on its handling and overall architecture, to achieve this ultimate, extreme, and exhilarating version. MCXtrema is a thrill to drive, unlike any other car,” said Andrea Bertolini, Maserati’s Chief Test Driver.

Maserati will produce only 62 copies of this car, and customers will be able to choose the “One of 62” plate inside the passenger compartment.
