Maserati GranCabrio Folgore to launch this year

Maserati may be delaying its electric Quattroporte all the way to 2028, but it doesn’t mean it stops the progress of going all-electric. Thankfully, we will be treated to some interesting EVs from the Italian automaker before the arrival of its electric sedan.

First out of the gate is the all-electric GranCabrio Folgore - the topless cousin of the already on-the-market GranTurismo Folgore. The company is taking its sweet time polishing out all the fine details before releasing what was meant to be the world’s first electric convertible. Unfortunately, that title has been claimed by MG Cyberster, and even the little Fiat 500e has its claim to the throne. Although they all are aimed at different customers.

The GranCabrio Folgore will share its powertrain with the GranTurismo, meaning 761 hp channeled to all four wheels and supported by the 800V and 92.5 kWh battery pack cleverly stashed between and behind the seats. The topless version will likely sport the same 283 miles range as well as the 199 mph top speed. In fact, we don’t expect too many differences between the two versions - apart from the missing hardtop.

Maserati GranCabrio Folgore to launch this year

Maserati was supposed to unveil the convertible version by the end of last year but pushed the debut back by a few months. The development is apparently progressing well and we can expect to see a third electric Maserati sometime this year.

But that’s not all. It turns out the MC20 can’t escape the electrification efforts for much longer either. Maserati is preparing an all-electric version of its supercar for debut in 2025. And if that wasn’t enough, Grecale Folgore will get a larger sibling no later than 2027. This busy schedule explains why the Quattroporte has been put on the back burner and will have to wait its turn until 2028.

On the face of it, it looks like Maserati has the future well planned out but not all is rosy in the house of Trident. Stallantis-owned Maserati had to lay off 1,000 employees but apparently, this is only a temporary measure and the production at the Mirafiori plant in Italy should be back to normal in March.
