“The Folgore full-electric strategy has been developed with customers’ requirements in mind, which remain the focus of every single product and form part of the Brand’s DNA,” said the company.

Cars in the Folgore range

The first car from the Folgore range will be a new 100 percent electric GranTurismo. It will debut in 2023 and will be made at Maserati’s Mirafiori production hub.

According to the company, the new GranTurismo will “offer cutting-edge technical solutions derived from Formula E, superb performance, comfort and elegance, all typical of the Trident.”

The car is expected to be a 1,200 hp roadster powered by an 800-volt battery, which will give the machine a top speed of around 300 kph, as per reports.

Maserati is also going to launch the all-new Grecale SUV. An electric version of the car will be available in 2023, the company said.

The renowned carmaker said that all Maserati models will be launched in 100 percent electric version by 2025 as part of the Maserati Folgore family. These include the MC20 super sports car, the new Quattroporte sport sedan and the all-new full-size Levante SUV.
