Cut-priced Italian exotica (Maserati Grecale GT 2023 Review)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 พ.ค. 2024
- The Maserati Grecale is the most attainable model line from the famed Italian carmaker. And the entry-level GT is the stylish midsize SUV at its most affordable.
But does 221kW turbocharged four-cylinder power befit any machine wearing the Trident badge? And does the Grecale’s budget-conscious pitch deliver on bona-fide luxury expectations curated by an exotic nameplate with 110 years of providence?
The Maserati Grecale lines up against rivals such as Alfa Romeo Stelvio, Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC in its pitch as your next premium European family hauler.

At a glance I thought this was a Ford Puma.
Ditto.
“Hi, I’d like a Ford Puma please, but somehow even less reliable”
@@jeremybean-hodges6397 you just know someone will buy it simply because of the Trident. Luxury goods buyers are just different.
Lol
Or Honda ZR-V
You are not the only one😂
3 year warranty in this day and age....doesn't give consumers much confidence in the build quality
I can hear the depreciation screaming from here…..
not boring, the frequent trips backwards and forwards to the mechanic for warranty issues and mechanical problems will keep you too busy to get bored oh and the devaluation faster than north koreas currency
I’m not the target market for this car, but as a driver I would hate having the gear selector buttons adjacent to the touch screen that the front passenger will interact with.
Can anyone say "depreciation" & "unreliability" ?
I would wait until some buyers absorb the depreciation and buggy software before considering this vehicle.
More expensive than a Macan when new. After 12 months likely to be cheaper. Resale value suicide.
the gear switch is a huge nono, why do some car makers do that :s
Ford Puma...?
I would not like to be impaled by the trident in service or repair cost, lest by the reliability, and I'm out.
Just get the honda zrv. Looks similar is fast enough no turbo lag much cheaper and reliable
You clearly waited to make this review until Maserati increases their prices. They just got an 10-15% price pump on all Grecale versions. Considering the GT started at 85k euros there no question whether someone would choose a lame Macan over a Grecale
Posh Stelvio
Maserati! What have you done to your brand?
Shame that maserati has reverted back to weird italian ergonomics just for the sake of being different
I've tried the Modena version and have absolutely no idea what you are talking about 🤷 Please explain
You either buy the trofeo or stay home
That infotainment system is like a cheap Jeep.
Porsche Macan
I mean, the CX-90 only looks a million times better
Mazda and Maserati 😂😂😂 Mazda is McDonald’s burger 🍔 and Maserati is exotic Italian pasta
@@Bollywoodhollywood2023 Bahaha, Maserati is glorified Chrysler at this point
@@Bollywoodhollywood2023 Just for a few moments. Look pass the badge and justify why this Maserati Grecale is an exotic Italian pasta as you've put it. I'm not having a dig either. Curious to know.
@@Bollywoodhollywood2023Mazda looks more expensive than Maserati inside and out 😂
@@hellothere4342 exactly and justify what Mazda charges you for a tin box with an engine it . Mazda has no soul . They are in a very different league
Why waste time reviewing the base model? No ‘real’ Maserati driver will even consider this option.
What's a 'real' Maserati driver? Do 'real' Porsche drivers buy Macans? The fact is the Grecale is going to attract new buyers who don't have supercar cash to splash.
@@chasingcarsagree
Overpriced Ford Escape !
Such a wasted opportunity, not quite sure how Maserati got this so wrong.
Ugly and pointless but will sell like hotcakes…
