Discoverable version of the GranTurismo coupe, the Maserati GranCabrio Folgore already appears under camouflage before its launch scheduled for 2023.
The Maserati GranCabrio Folgore currently only shows its exterior under camouflage. Initial observations suggest the design is identical to the coupe, closely resembling the outgoing model. The convertible adopts a soft top and reveals the exhausts of the thermal variant. Like the coupe, the convertible will probably show no clear distinction of its electric propulsion. As for its specifications, Folgore says nothing for now, but is expected to adopt the 3-motor system with 761 hp.
Launch of the Maserati GranCabrio Electric in 2023
“Ahead of the launch of the Maserati GranCabrio, expected next year, prototypes are continuing intensive testing on the road, on circuit, and in various conditions,” specifies the manufacturer with the Trident, “to collect essential data for final optimal tuning.”
The Maserati GranCabrio Folgore will officially come out in 2023, the same year as the GranTurismo coupe. It remains to be seen how much such an electric convertible will cost, which we will not know until several weeks.
A 100% electric Maserati lineup by 2030
In addition to the Maserati GranCabrio Folgore, all models in the lineup will gradually become electric. Starting in 2025, every new model will have its 100% electric counterpart, like the convertible. The brand has also already confirmed its goal to complete the transition of its entire catalog by 2030, well before the 2035 ban in the European Union.
