Maserati recently unveiled the official pricing for its highly anticipated GranCabrio models during an event attended by luxury automotive enthusiasts and industry experts. The GranCabrio Trofeo will retail starting at 18,900,000 baht, with Modena Motorwork serving as the exclusive distributor of Maserati vehicles across Thailand. Meanwhile, the GranCabrio Folgore, the brand’s first electric convertible, is set to attract attention with its starting price of 14,900,000 baht.
The GranCabrio Trofeo is not just any luxury vehicle; it's infused with Maserati’s performance pedigree. Equipped with the V6 Nettuno engine, it boasts 550 horsepower paired with all-wheel drive. This ensures exhilarating acceleration and control, making it the perfect choice for those who crave both speed and sophistication. According to AutoLife Thailand, “GranCabrio Trofeo starts at 18,900,000 baht, exclusively available through Modena Motorwork.”
Performance specifications reveal just how powerful the Trofeo is: it can reach 0-100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds and has impressive handling capabilities. The luxurious interior is equally impressive, presenting state-of-the-art technology, including a 12.3-inch touchscreen and digital gauge display. Drivers and passengers can enjoy the convenience of electronically controlled features, such as the soft-top convertible roof, which opens and closes within 14 and 16 seconds respectively—even at speeds under 50 km/h!
The Folgore variant, on the other hand, marks Maserati's foray boldly onto the electric vehicle scene. Featured as the “first luxury convertible electric vehicle,” its design is utilized for impressive performance with three electric motors providing up to 830 horsepower with peak torque hitting 1,350 Nm. Headlight Magazine notes, “GranCabrio Folgore EV starts at 14,900,000 baht, featuring three electric motors on the world’s most powerful convertible platform.” This model reflects the growing trend among luxury brands to combine high performance with environmental consciousness.
With acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h taking just 2.8 seconds, the Folgore is built for exhilarating speed. Its advanced battery system not only offers quick charging capabilities but also delivers up to 445 kilometers on a full charge, marking it as one of the most efficient options currently available.
Maserati is making significant strides with both vehicles, emphasizing their innovation and dedication to quality. The interior of the Folgore encompasses blue and white tones with comprehensive equipment, providing both luxury and driving pleasure. The dashboard is accentuated with dual touchscreens (12.3 inches for the main controls and 8.8 inches for climate adjustments) ensuring the latest technology enhances user experience.
These models come equipped with innovative infotainment systems and are part of Maserati's overall strategy to bridge heritage with modern requirements. “This model presents the first luxury convertible electric vehicle, merging performance with eco-friendliness,” stated Maserati’s spokesperson, highlighting the brand's commitment to sustainability.
Both Maserati GranCabrio Trofeo and Folgore are now available for pre-order, promising exclusive offerings for early adopters. The vehicles will also be prominently featured at the upcoming Motor Show 2025, scheduled from March 26 to April 6, 2025. With their blend of performance and luxury, Maserati’s latest offerings aim to secure their position as key players within the luxury automobile market.
