About the Maserati Grecale

Marking the start of an entirely new chapter of Italian design and thrilling performance, the agile Maserati Grecale sets the standard for all compact luxury SUVs to try and follow. Its name comes from the raucous northeast wind of the Mediterranean Sea, hinting at the potent power of the Grecale model range. Beneath the hood, the Grecale engine lineup consists of two individual mild-hybrid powertrains in addition to a race-inspired high-performance 523-horsepower V6 based on the Maserati MC20 Nettuno engine. Just as impressive, the opulent interior of the Grecale is loaded with advanced technology and impeccable comfort amenities. An excellent example is a jaw-dropping total of over 33 inches of display screen surfaces that provide a remarkably engaging infotainment experience via the Maserati Intelligent Assistant (MIA) multimedia system. Iconic style infused with progressive innovation, the driver-car interface of the Grecale includes digital readouts that instill a connection between you and the road ahead. An invigorating departure from the ordinary, the Maserati Grecale is engineered to defy convention.

What the Critics Say

“More luxurious than an Alfa Romeo Stelvio, more charismatic than a Jaguar F-Pace, more exotic than a Porsche Macan, the Grecale could be the Maserati that finally brings the storied Italian brand into the premium mainstream in America.”
— MotorTrend

“Of course, it’s difficult to draw definitive conclusions from such a brief first drive, but my experience with the Grecale is overwhelmingly positive. The vehicle is beautiful and its interior stellar, there’s plenty of tech and the dynamics are well sorted. Simply put, the new Grecale is a winner, which is exactly what Maserati needs.”
