Maserati GT2 Stradale: From the Track to the Road

Highway version of the diabolical Maserati GT2, the Stradale took the time for an experience with its future customers.

The Maserati GT2 Stradale, first introduced on August 16 during “The Quail” at the Monterey Car Week in California, will be available in Europe starting in April. This road-legal model is derived from the GT2, designed for motorsport. The official presentation took place in Andalusia through a special event that allowed international partners and clients to test its performance on the road and on track. The route, starting from Marbella, crossed the Sierra de las Nieves national park before reaching the private Ascari circuit near Ronda. This 5,425-meter track is named in honor of the driver Alberto Ascari, who was an official Maserati driver in 1954.

Alongside the development of the 100% electric range, the GT2 Stradale provides a final breath of 100% thermal engine for Maserati clients with the MC20. It reflects the brand’s renewed commitment to competition, as illustrated by its victory in the GT2 European Series championship. Designed to combine sporty performance and road comfort, it is powered by a Nettuno V6 engine developing 640 hp, 10 hp more than the MC20. Capable of reaching a top speed of 324 km/h and accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds, it stands out as one of the most high-performing propulsion systems in its category.

“The GT2 Stradale is the perfect expression of Maserati’s duality between elegance and competition. It embodies the expertise and passion of our teams.” promises Santo Ficili, Maserati CEO. The car benefits from the Fuoriserie customization program, allowing clients to choose from several exclusive finishes. Produced since December in Modena, it is limited to 914 units, a nod to Maserati’s founding year, 1914.
