Everything is relative
Maserati previously quietly included the electric variant of the Gran Turismo in the Dutch configurator and now the brand is doing the same with the electric variant of the Grecale. With a starting price of over €123,000, the electric Maserati Grecale Folgore is of course not a bargain, although it is within the Grecale family!
Just like the Gran Turismo, the Grecale is also available with petrol engines and an electric drivetrain. The smaller SUV brother of the Levante is available with 300 hp (GT) and 330 hp (Modena) 2.0 four-cylinder and as Trofeo with a 530 hp V6. Then there is the electric Folgore. In terms of power, it is comparable to the Trofeo and is even almost as fast. It’s just significantly less expensive!
While Maserati asks around €178,000 for the Grecale Trofeo with a very strong six-cylinder, the Grecale Folgore is listed for €123,650 in the Dutch configurator. It is therefore about 55 grand less expensive and the Grecale Folgore of course has Dutch legislation to thank for this. After all, he is not bitten by the BPM monster. It only costs slightly more than the Grecale Modena with the 2.0 four-cylinder (€120,446).
What the Grecale Folgore has to offer? Many! Two electric motors together generate 557 hp. This makes it stronger than the Trofeo, but not faster due to its higher weight. While the Trofeo sprints from a standstill to 100 km/h in 3.8 seconds, the electric Grecale Folgore does so in 4.1 seconds. So negligibly slower. We see a bigger difference with the top speed. The Trofeo runs at 285 km/h, while the electric Maserati Grecale Folgore stops at 220 km/h.
The electric range of the Maserati Grecale Folgore is a very useful 487 kilometers thanks to its 105 kWh battery pack. More detailed technical data will follow later. These may differ from what you read above, because Maserati does not currently communicate the same figures everywhere. It sometimes speaks of a system power of 500 hp, but also of 550 hp and even of 566 hp. However, the prices are final.
