The design philosophy behind the new GranCabrio Folgore mirrors that of its counterpart, the GranTurismo. The Maserati GranCabrio Folgore maintains continuity while introducing subtle refinements that enhance its overall appeal.

At the front, the GranCabrio Folgore features vertical lights and the iconic Trident logo. Moving to the rear, the GranCabrio Folgore boasts eye-catching LED taillights inspired by the GranTurismo.

For wheels, it offers a range of options with six different designs and four finishes available. The wheel configuration, with larger wheels at the rear (21 inch 295/30) and slightly smaller ones at the front (20 inch 265/35), ensures superior handling and stability on the road. Additionally, the brake calipers, available in black and anodized dark copper can be further customized, offering a choice of four additional colors: white, blue, yellow, and anodized red.

With a color palette consisting of six elegant options—Bianco Astro, Nero Assoluto, Blu Modena, Verde Giada, Grigio Incognito, and Grigio Maratea Matte, the car is all about individuality.

Engine

The GranCabrio Folgore marks Maserati's entry into the realm of luxury full-electric convertibles, redefining exhilarating performance without compromising sustainability.

Powered by three electric motors and boasting four driving modes, MAX RANGE, GT, SPORT, and CORSA, the GranCabrio Folgore boasts a total installed power of over 1200 hp. These motors, specially designed for Maserati's exclusive use, deliver high levels of power density (9.2 kW/kg) and are driven by silicon carbide (SiC) inverters derived from Formula E, ensuring precise control and minimal power loss.

The ability to adjust torque distribution between the front and rear wheels enhances the car's agility and responsiveness on the road. The car also features an advanced battery system with a nominal capacity of 92.5 kWh for continuous power delivery of around 750 hp to the wheels.

The innovative "T-bone" battery pack layout not only optimizes vehicle height and weight distribution but also contributes to the car's exceptional agility. With regenerative braking capabilities of up to 0.65 g, the car maximizes energy recovery during deceleration.

Interior

Step inside, and you'll be greeted by a sanctuary of luxury and innovation. The interior boasts a finish with contrasting stitching, which creates a captivating ambiance that complements the car's exterior beauty.

But it's not just about aesthetics—the GranCabrio Folgore is equipped with cutting-edge technology derived from Formula E cars, ensuring an exhilarating driving experience. Maserati Connect, which uses the vehicle's internet connection to enhance driving experience with essential services, is even more comprehensive with the GrandCabrio Folgore.

As Maserati's first 100% electric convertible, the GranCabrio Folgore represents a shift in the luxury automotive landscape. With its unparalleled blend of performance, comfort, and sustainability, it sets a new benchmark for electric vehicles in the market.
