With the shift towards electric power, the Grecale Folgore carries the weight of setting the tone for Maserati’s electric transition.

The Maserati Grecale Folgore retains the brand’s distinctive styling cues while introducing subtle design changes to signify its electric nature. Under the hood, it packs a 105kWh battery powering two 275bhp electric motors, delivering a total output of 550bhp.

Performance-wise, the Grecale Folgore impresses with its 550bhp output, allowing for a quick 0-62mph acceleration of 4.1 seconds. However, the chassis struggles to handle the power, resulting in traction issues and a lack of balance in handling, especially during spirited driving.

In conclusion, the Maserati Grecale Folgore presents a mixed bag of strengths and weaknesses. While it offers luxury, practicality, and speed, its high price, inefficiency, and subpar driving dynamics may deter potential buyers seeking a well-rounded electric SUV experience. As Maserati ventures further into the electric market, refining these aspects will be crucial for the Grecale Folgore’s success in a competitive landscape.
