@@brandonfromlondonuk3484 You sound like a pleasant person to be around. /s The Maserati GT has always received high praise for its appearance, in fact people have looked back on the original late 2000s model and remarked that it has aged gracefully.

By the way hypercars look the way they do because they're hyper specialized for speed. The reason hypercars have the stretched wedge shape is because it is very aerodynamic and maximizes down force, they sacrifice creature comforts and practicality. They often require lots of air intakes to cool their massive engine and brakes, the styling is often extreme because owners want to show off their ludicrously expensive car. Personally they fit my taste and I find the look matches the radical nature of the vehicles. OTOH I could see where someone would be coming from if they called it juvenile. There are hypercars with restrained styling like some models made by Porsche.
I've owned 2 GranTurismos; a 2008 4.2L and 2014 4.7L and I don't think I could do without the sound of the V8 with this car. Even the new V6 doesn't sound that great in comparison. Still beautiful tho.
Then you should invest in the MC20 based V6 twin turbo. That said, it won't sound like the naturally aspirated Ferrrari-Maserati sourced engine ever. This is why I'm keeping my 2014 GT.
I believe the EV variant will fail badly. It’s just not competitive for the asking price. Previously customers used to pay big money to get first of all a great engine and a sound from a supercar or luxury/GT brand and that experience. So 80% of the price in the minds of customers was justified by a particular engine. Without it, if new Chinese or Korean brands (or from elsewhere) come out with their new GT/performance EV coupes with good interior/exterior design, not many people will buy a EV Maserati because those brands will give better battery and infotainment tech for sure and will be at least half the price. For the money asked this Maserati should’ve had Plaid levels of performance if not more and 120kwh battery at least.
@@MarkMaxwell-author that day is not so close...also todays EV-s will age very badly...with heavy batteryes without much autonomy...they will never be desirable
@@ivanlazarevic78 have to respectfully disagree. Today my 2022 Tesla Perf Model Y does 0-60 in 3.5 and has 300 miles range, better performance, tech, and cost of ownership than the lion's share of ICE on the road. Batteries and EV tech are only going to get cheaper and better. Autonomy doesn't enter into it.
its gorgeous - alot of people have been bashing maserati, especially after the ghibli, but they have some of the most gorgeous, amazing sounding cars in the market.... and that interior is stunning!
you like cars without soul then....Driving this thing feels like you re dead, so heavy no sound even my Polo is more enjoyable when I press the throttle.
The problem is for electric you end up with a load of unnecessary weight and inefficiencies if you share a platform - I don't think these will age well, I'd wait for something EV from the ground up. Maserati themselves are ditching ICE as Charlie said at the end, so for them this is just a transition product.

what? it looks almost exactly like all other Maserati cars for last 20 years. Objectively it is pretty but the problem is it looks the same as old used ones that are worth less than 20% of this car. Good luck selling that. they were not selling well in the first place. also 2:53 look at those welds. No wonder owners won't be able to open the bonnet. Quality of those welds gets me thinking there might be child labor involved.
Looks like a gas car though, you can make EVs beautiful without having them look like a gas car with fake grilles. Just look at the taycan, model S, ioniq 5/6, EV6, Hummer EV, rimac nevera etc. Gorgeous EVs without looking like the body of an ICE vehicle was ripped straight off.
@@Chevdriver No, in it's core the new GranTurismo is based on "Giorgio" - i.e. the architecture of Alfa Romeo Giulia, Stelvio and Maserati Grecale, among others. The old GranTurismo platform, which essentially was a shortened M139 Quattroporte (designed by Ferrari), was way too heavy and not really electrifyable.
Interesting. Feels to me like 100 years ago with rolling chassis for coach builders, the same as the EV skateboard chassis of today's manufacturers. Good to see maserati challenging that
Many journalist writes the skateboard as a better solution, but its a cheaper solution, not a better. Easire to make different or more cars on it, but they all will be tall! Lotus Evija is also has its batteries put in different way, and that looks good as well and i guess it isnt horrible to drive with its battery placement actually they could play with the point of balance of the car. Skateboard chases cars rarely looks really good.
For me, it looks like a mild facelift of the previous incarnation. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing, but I think they got it so right last time, they were afraid of a clean-sheet design for fear of mucking it up, and I think that is ultimately a failure of the design team. Other than that, the Folgore seems to offer something unique at this point in time; an EV that will hopefully rival the Bentley Continental GT. If the interior quality is there or thereabouts, and they can deliver orders quickly, I expect to start seeing a lot of these on London streets. However, I'm not so excited about the petrol versions. I think this new GranTurismo will likely pull the prices of the old ones up rather than push them further down, even though they are horrendously thirsty. The design is just too similar to the old one to make people think they've got to have the new one. As a Maserati aficionado I have been somewhat shocked that Maserati has taken so long to replace the previous long-running car, and then all they have come up with is what looks like a facelift. I'm interested to see how the market reacts. I have been similarly disappointed to see the emergence of models that quite frankly shouldn't be wearing the Trident. I think the MC20 is great, but it seems Covid means it will be a commercial failure. Maybe the MC20 Folgore will be a commercial success? It seems strange that the future of a brand with a history of special engines may be saved by being a performance EV leader.
I need to hear what the electric performance sound profile for this car is gonna be like. It needs to be engaging and smile-inducing like the old V8 did so well. I got something around the 8:45 mark, but i really want to hear some raw footage, sound is important in a Maserati gran tourer for me, probably because the old Garn Turismo was one of the most obnoxious sounding GTs ever. Regardless, fingers crossed for Maserati, they’re a cool brand and have the potential to be the Italian Porsche. here’s to hoping they go in the right direction.
Obnoxious is not the correct description of the Ferrari sourced naturally aspirated 4.7L V8 engine. More like unique but brute force sound that makes any driver smile from ear to ear!
This might be the first ev of any description that I like. Mainly the evolved styling , handling and over 200mph in a ev !! If the petrol version does 200mph and handles the same or better I'd still prefer that , but not bad for a ev Maserati....Not bad !! 8/10
Also, you can tune the ICE version and easily get more power out of it. EV tunning isn't really possible on the other hand. You only need about 600 HP to have the same power/weight ratio as the EV.
I don't have anything against EVs. I really like the Taycan and R1S. But sorry, a Maserati EV is just not a good idea. Maserati as a brand has little else to offer than a good engine and a nice sound. Taking that away really makes you question why you should take this over a Taycan, E-Tron GT or similar vehicles. Because the styling, although neat and clean, isn't going to replace the engine for that brand.
@@mouisehay930 And yet all the manufacturers are turning their line up electric. Notably, again, Porsche and Audi which are mentioned. The fact is, if Maserati does not do the same, they'll simply fall behind and disappear because they are not competitive. Wether you understand that or not; but clearly, they did.
Judging by past performance, this is a vehicle which will be worth about $10K in about 5 years from now. If you hate having money (a lot!), then get a Maserati!
Idk about anyone here, but watching these electric vehicles really has me thinking Formula E’s gen 3 cars are going to be a joy to watch this upcoming season!

One thing about the range. The drag coefficient might not be the best, but it has a small frontal area compared to most EVs because of the battery placement.
Granturismo was a flawed car that still made you fall in love with it. Sadly, what made it so awesome is now gone. The design is changed for the worse, and the V8 growl is missing. I'm not interested in this
This car probably looks gorgeous but my problem is, I am comparing it to the absolute beaut the previous gen is and am finding this ugly. The previous gen Gran Turismo is one of the best looking (and sounding) cars on earth -- of all time.
Beautiful car, gorgeous footage as well, but during the drive section that missing engine noise is super prominent. That thrill is gone... its gonna be interesting to see how the industry adapts.
I thought that this car should have 1200 HP ? I understand that its all about number type of market + looks and status , because electric cars mostly feel generic ,but still . I guess MC20 is the last car that truly show why Maserati is actually a good and exciting.
While ironic due to the feature being an electric car, I appreciate the restraint on music in this vid. Driving ambience is quite good on its own vs a soundtrack
They should’ve introduced the option to add speakers like a Tesla to play any rev or ‘electric’ sound inside and out to make it more engaging. Silence is good sometimes but you should have a option to choose
Honestly I like it...of course the internal combustion engines from Maserati are something else but we gotta understand that this gonna be the future or we'll have to wait for biological fuels.
Maserati without an exhaust , is like the 80s without coke… a tropical vacation without any sunshine.. a yacht without any women.. a construction site without any immigrants.. An exquisite Italian dinner without any wine.. you get the point.
At least when Porsche sells you a 140k, 750hp electric sports car, it is built specifically to be an electric car to maximize the benefits of the chassis, performance and perks of being an electric car. And honestly, one of the main reasons to get a Maserati sports car is for its sound. Well, we aren't getting any here.
The aerodynamic difference is an interesting one (to me). Why would they choose not to make the petrol version more aerodynamically efficient as well - what are the down-sides which outweigh the benefits in the case of IC but not EV?
I applaud Maserati for keeping the same general design of the GT (although it was actually designed from the ground up). Looks like they have their shit together.
They can be if they are powered by renewables. Even without those EVs have vastly lower emissions footprints. Try to keep up with the modern world. I know it's baffling.
LOL you are soo brainwashed. That was invented by BP, the whole personal carbon foot print myth. Pure Electric BEVs are just Fun, Powerful, Tough and blow thicc smoke from roasting the tires.

I don’t know what to think about the front of this car. Previous Maserati’s used to look angry, this one looks surprised.
Lmao😂
At least they didn't give it the wierd wooden-dutch-shoe front end like so many fully EV vehicles get.
It's that interior for me.
Bellisima!
I thought that this car should have 1200 HP ? I understand that its all about number type of market + looks and status , because electric cars mostly feel generic ,but still . I guess MC20 is the last car that truly show why Maserati is actually a good and exciting.
MC20 brings on Maserati name forever
Limited by the draw from the batteries. Probably the high voltage pull is too much heat and strain for batteries even if the motors are capable
While ironic due to the feature being an electric car, I appreciate the restraint on music in this vid. Driving ambience is quite good on its own vs a soundtrack
They should’ve introduced the option to add speakers like a Tesla to play any rev or ‘electric’ sound inside and out to make it more engaging. Silence is good sometimes but you should have a option to choose
Let’s pretend you were joking … because artificial engine noise is a joke as well.
It s just because we got used to cars being ICE. After 20 years of exclusively electric cars i can assure you nobody would care about exhaust notes.
looks epic really beautiful desighn and slik :)
The main problem with the grand tourismo was its infotainment system...
The design reminds me of the Fisker Karma which isn't a bad thing.
Honestly I like it...of course the internal combustion engines from Maserati are something else but we gotta understand that this gonna be the future or we'll have to wait for biological fuels.
@M it's just the beginning...Imagine what will happen in 10 more years
Most beautiful GT. No question.
That’s because the dashboard is still from 2003, as only Maserati can do
Maserati without an exhaust , is like the 80s without coke… a tropical vacation without any sunshine.. a yacht without any women.. a construction site without any immigrants.. An exquisite Italian dinner without any wine.. you get the point.
I think they did a great job with this
From one of the greatest sounding cars to this......?
Maserati design is always beautiful sleek elegant,love the alloys perfect for this car gorgeous overall.🇧🇩
At least when Porsche sells you a 140k, 750hp electric sports car, it is built specifically to be an electric car to maximize the benefits of the chassis, performance and perks of being an electric car. And honestly, one of the main reasons to get a Maserati sports car is for its sound. Well, we aren't getting any here.
Love the look of it. Thank god there's petrol versions. I'll come back whatch all of your review on those ones.
The aerodynamic difference is an interesting one (to me). Why would they choose not to make the petrol version more aerodynamically efficient as well - what are the down-sides which outweigh the benefits in the case of IC but not EV?
Cooling
@@sylvaind.6786 Yes. And breathing. You know @@philipminns3933 the combustion thing needs air ;-)
Nah dats fire bruh they smart for giving you a electric option and a engine👏
Absolutely beautiful car!!!Let’s hope for a V12 in the future…f@cking emission rules…
Beautiful looking engine and eargasm sound is no longer anymore
Best Maserati GranTurismo 😍
Great exhaust noise
I’d take the Petrol and laugh at the electric ⚡️ version 😂
Forgetting that the RS E-Tron GT exists and is already in the market, then yeah you can say it exists in a class of its own.
Maserati knew to create a petro version because let's face it, a Maserati without a exhaust note is like a shark 🦈 without teeth
Right 👍
I applaud Maserati for keeping the same general design of the GT (although it was actually designed from the ground up). Looks like they have their shit together.
But i like the Maserati quattroporte is the best V8 sound ever , Maserati without exhaust is pointless
The gt is back baby
How anyone can say electric cars are guilt and emissions free is absolutely baffling.
They can be if they are powered by renewables. Even without those EVs have vastly lower emissions footprints. Try to keep up with the modern world. I know it's baffling.
LOL you are soo brainwashed. That was invented by BP, the whole personal carbon foot print myth.
Pure Electric BEVs are just Fun, Powerful, Tough and blow thicc smoke from roasting the tires.
EVs are not emissions free. But the lifetime emissions from electric vehicles pale in comparison to the lifetime emissions from fossil fuel vehicles.
Beautiful shape. I hope they never get rid of this shape and just make it better like the 911
