MASERATI, the luxury brand of carmaker Stellantis, unveiled on Monday (Oct 3) its new GranTurismo model ahead of an official launch scheduled next year for the brand’s first car available in a fully-electric version.
Maserati, which returned to an operating profit last year, has promised fully-electric – or so-called folgore – versions of all its cars by 2025, as part of a wider turnaround plan.
Maserati said in a statement the electric powertrain for the new grandtourer (GT) would be derived from Formula E technology, where the Italian brand will start competing next year.
The new GranTurismo will also be available with a three-litre, six-cylinder internal combustion engine (ICE), in two versions capable of 490 and 500 horsepower, Maserati added.
Both the fully-electric and the ICE versions will have an indicative starting price of around 200,000 euros (S$279,591), just below the entry price for a Ferrari car.
The GranTurismo will be produced at Stellantis’ Mirafiori plant in Turin.
