Maserati: Folgore stands for the electric future 🎥
THIS IS COMING The next steps in Maserati's electric car plans are now official. The most important point: the BEVs GranTurismo Folgore and Grecale Folgore are already available in several countries - including Switzerland.
The Italians' electric offensive, which runs under the label Maserati Folgore (the Italian word for lightning), is set to gain further momentum this year with the GranCabrio Folgore. The Italian manufacturer is planning the MC20 Folgore for 2025. A new E-SUV is to follow in 2027 and the Quattroporte Folgore in 2028. The latter was actually already planned for 2025, but development was apparently halted.
Production entirely in Italy
The Maserati model range is designed, developed and manufactured entirely in Italy. It is currently delivered to more than 70 countries around the world, which corresponds to an export rate of 86 percent. Modena continues to be the beating heart of the brand, which has been based in the historic factory in Viale Ciro Menotti (Center Gallery) for more than 80 years.
Derived from the formula E
Maserati believes more than ever in the future of electric mobility. The brand is currently organizing itself in all areas to improve its competitiveness and exceed the expectations of new luxury consumers. The company has already begun its journey into the new electric age by unveiling its first two BEV vehicles: The GranTurismo Folgore and the Grecale Folgore (gallery left, Folgore refers to the all-electric Maserati models) are already available. The GranTurismo Folgore, an icon of the brand, offers state-of-the-art technical solutions derived from Formula E. With motorsport in its genes, Maserati has also been the first Italian brand to compete in Formula E since 2023.
Dare Forward 2030 will apply from MarchÂ
Maserati is part of the "Dare Forward 2030" strategic plan announced by parent company Stellantis on March 1, 2022 and is a fully-fledged part of the overall organizational matrix. All new Maserati models will feature electric powertrains that offer great innovation and high performance - both typical of Maserati's DNA. 2024 is a pivotal year for the company's development and growth, especially given the challenges and changes facing luxury brands in the global automotive industry.
