Maserati, the highlight of the new ‘Made in Thunder’ model: what is it?


And Amazing new teaser from Maserati comes out randomly: “Made for Thunder” is the motto. What is it about? It appears to be a new car from the Folgore series (so it’s electric) and whose unveiling is scheduled in less than a week, on April 15th at 8:00 pm European time.

We said Folgore, which is the word used electric versions of the Maserati range. So far we have seen the GranTurismo Folgore and the Grecale Folgore. Now it seems the time has come to add a third car to this lineup, but which one?

It could be the Folgore variant of the Maserati GranCabrio, recently presented in its combustion version, or it could be something completely different. The theory also considers the possibility of one MC20 radio, already confirmed in 2020 when the hot Maserati MC20 was announced. However, Maserati has confirmed that the electric MC20 will only go into production in 2025, making the announcement in April plausible, but still early for sales (if it’s the MC20).

Who knows, it could also be an electric version of the Levante SUV, although less likely in our opinion, as Maserati’s SUV platform doesn’t seem ready. Instead, considering that the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale shares the platform with the MC20, it is more plausible that it is him. What we do not know, however, is what kind of power training the electric Maserati MC20 (or rather, Folgore) can undergo. However, with that in mind GranTurismo Folgore delivers 751 horsepowerwe expect the MC20 to feature something a little more powerful.

Davide Grasso, CEO of Maserati, had announced some time ago that the electric MC20 would be the company’s first supercharged sports car, developed from scratch and then converted to electrification following the original combustion version. Maserati has taken a unique approach to development one platform for the combustion version and the (future) electric version. of MC20. If it really was him, then we are facing a brand promise made 4 years ago that has finally come true.
