The Maserati Grecale has been priced from £58,500 in the UK, with V6 models commanding a much higher pricetag
The mild-hybrid cars, meanwhile, start with 296bhp and 332lb ft from a twin-turbocharged 2.0-litre unit mated to a belt-integrated starter-generator and a 48V battery in the boot to give improved economy and an electrical power boost under hard acceleration. Maserati claims a 0-62mph time of 5.6sec, 30.7-32.5mpg on the WLTP combined cycle and – crucially – an engine note “that retains the usual characteristics of any other Trident-brand car”.
Optional air suspension gives six levels of adjustment over a 65mm height range – sitting lowest in Park mode and at full height in Off-road – and a new Vehicle Dynamic Control Module serves as “a top-ranking orchestral conductor” for all dynamic elements of the chassis.
The rear end, meanwhile, is characterised by new boomerang-shaped headlight designs claimed to be inspired by the Giugiaro-designed 3200 GT sports coupé from 1998 and a new-look exhaust, while the performance-minded Modena and Trofeo variants are marked out by a rear track widened by 34mm over the standard Grecale GT - as well as bespoke bumpers and chrome detailing on the front grille.
The driver display is digital as standard and there’s a 12.3in central infotainment screen, an 8.8in touchpad for the climate control and a new digital clock mounted prominently at the top of the dashboard. The removal of the bulk of physical controls, as a result, allows for a larger central armrest and a dedicated phone-charging cubby.Materials and colour schemes differ according to trim level.
