2027 Core Lineup Refresh – What’s Changing
Maserati will refresh its three core models—Grecale SUV, GranTurismo coupe, and GranCabrio convertible—for 2027. All receive a wider grille, a “shark-nose” front bumper, new side intakes and wheel designs. Inside, an octagonal steering wheel, PRND buttons and a redesigned digital clock are added. The Nettuno 3.0-litre V6 now makes up to 582 hp (some sources cite 590 hp) in Trofeo trim; the Grecale adds a V6 option. Folgore EVs keep the layout but gain software that adds up to 33 miles of range.
Background & Context
The update comes as Stellantis, Maserati’s parent, looks for production partners for its Cassino and Modena plants and denies sale rumors. Maserati’s sales have fallen for several years, prompting executives to stress the brand’s “design-focused” identity.
Performance & Technical Data
Trofeo GranTurismo/GranCabrio: 582 hp, 620 Nm, 0-62 mph 3.8 s, ~199 mph top speed. Grecale V6 base: 385 hp, 500 Nm, 0-62 mph 5 s, 260 km/h; Grecale Trofeo: 523 hp, 620 Nm, 0-62 mph 3.8 s, 285 km/h. Folgore EVs: Grecale 542 hp, 268-270 mi range; GranTurismo/GranCabrio 751 hp, 0-100 km/h 2.7 s, 249-251 mi range.
Why It Matters
The facelift ties the trio to Maserati’s MCXtrema, GT2 Stradale and MCPURA design language. Higher output, a new “Country Mode” suspension and EV range aim to broaden appeal and keep the lineup competitive against luxury rivals in combustion and electric segments.
Official Statements & Responses
Santo Ficili, Maserati’s chief operating officer, emphasized that the brand will continue its design strategy. Klaus Busse, head of design, explained that the new front fascia reflects a sharper, more aggressive aesthetic. Davide Danesin, head of engineering, clarified that a recent comment about “off-road” capability does not indicate an off-road model. Antonio Filosa, Stellantis CEO, denied any sale of Maserati and confirmed discussions with production partners.
Criticism & Opposition
Automotive commentary notes that despite the visual and power upgrades, Maserati’s sales have been sliding and the brand “still can’t quite get itself together enough to really succeed.” Critics suggest the refresh may be insufficient without a more radical product overhaul.
Conflicting Reports & Gaps
Trofeo power is reported as 582 hp in most sources but 590 hp in others. Grecale V6 output appears as 385 hp in some reports and 390 hp in others. Grecale Folgore range is listed as 268 mi, 270 mi, and 441 km (?274 mi). Pricing and final EV battery specifications remain undisclosed.
Verbatim Quotes
- “This journey actually began with the MCXtrema, a track-only car which allowed us to experiment, try new things. And in that case, we evolved our face into something more horizontal, more sharp, more aggressive.” — Klaus Busse, head of design
- “all contact points between driver and car have been renewed.” — Maserati press release
- “off-road” — Davide Danesin, head of engineering
What’s Next
Maserati will begin delivering the refreshed models to dealers later this year, with the new online configurator already active. Ongoing discussions with production partners may affect the manufacturing footprint, while upcoming emissions rules could prompt further powertrain tweaks.
