About the Maserati Grecale
The beginning of a new era of thrilling performance and Italian passion, the dynamic Maserati Grecale sets the standard that all performance-focused luxury SUVs will try to mimic in the coming years. The name ‘Grecale’ comes from the fierce northeast wind of the Mediterranean Sea, a subtle nod to the tremendous power found beneath the hood of this SUV. Powertrain options range from two individual mild-hybrid engines to a race-proven high-performance 523-horsepower V6 based on the Maserati MC20 Nettuno engine. Equally as impressive, the stunning interior of the Grecale is infused with advanced tech and premium comfort features to help you relax. The perfect example is its remarkable display screen surface area which measures over 33 inches in total, providing an immersive infotainment experience via the Maserati Intelligent Assistant (MIA) multimedia system. Legendary style combined with tireless innovation, the driver-car interface of the Maserati Grecale includes digital readouts that instill a connection between you and the open road.
What the Critics Say
“More luxurious than an Alfa Romeo Stelvio, more charismatic than a Jaguar F-Pace, more exotic than a Porsche Macan, the Grecale could be the Maserati that finally brings the storied Italian brand into the premium mainstream in America.”
— MotorTrend
“Of course, it’s difficult to draw definitive conclusions from such a brief first drive, but my experience with the Grecale is overwhelmingly positive. The vehicle is beautiful and its interior stellar, there’s plenty of tech and the dynamics are well sorted. Simply put, the new Grecale is a winner, which is exactly what Maserati needs.”
