A while in the past we examined the MaseratiGrecale in its easiest model, the GT, which with its 2.0 gasoline engine and 300 CV mini-hybridization system already provided us greater than respectable efficiency, however an method that has little to do with this Trofeo end. , an Italian thoroughbred with a V6 gasoline engine and 530 CV, the identical as that of the Maserati MC20.
It's the prime quality of the Grecale and likewise its most efficiency and passionate exponent. As we've got already mentioned, it's geared up with the identical Nettuno 3.0 V6 engine from the MC20, though on this crossover physique it's lowered by 100 CV to these 530 CV and 10 Nm to 620 Nm. The twin-clutch transmission of the supercar can also be renounced for a similar eight-speed computerized gearbox and torque converter as the remainder of the Grecale vary, apart from some extra closed developments for this extra radical model.
Its body additionally adapts to those advantages with a pneumatic suspension with top and firmness adjustment in accordance with the driving modes or manually. On this case to the 4 driving modes of the remainder of the vary; Consolation, GT, Sport and Off-road, the Corsa mode is added, this being a extremely radical configuration.
As you may think about, it's the one which configures the response of the engine, the gearbox and transmissions, the suspensions, the steering and the brakes of their most sporty exponent, along with giving entry to the Launch Management mode and releasing the restrictions of the controls of traction and utterly disconnecting the driving aids. This mix permits an acceleration of three.8 seconds for 0 to 100 km/h and a high velocity of 285 km/h, nearly nothing.
The brakes are signed by Brembo with big 360 mm diameter discs and a six-piston caliper on the entrance and 340 mm and a four-piston caliper on the rear that guarantee very forceful braking that's immune to demanding use, one thing completely needed for a Grecale Trofeo that gives us a really excellent dynamic response in curved areas, with energy to hyperlink them in a short time and exact steering to ensure the precision of the best trajectory.
Actually, this automotive provides us heart-stopping efficiency, with an engine that accelerates decisively from any level on the rev counter, in addition to doing so with a lovely sound in essentially the most commonplace and intoxicating modes for Sport modes and particularly within the Corsa. Its all-wheel drive, supported by an electronically-managed self-locking rear differential, decisively transmits all this potential to the bottom, with a transparent preponderance within the rear axle in Corsa mode and extra balanced within the different modes.
Clearly its greatest asset is on asphalt since, regardless of its Off-road mode and the potential of elevating its physique by 22 mm on this place, the bottom shouldn't be its splendid atmosphere, particularly because of the mounting of its big rubber tires. asphalt philosophy with a low profile and 21-inch tires (255/40R21 in entrance and 295/35R21 within the rear) that aren't essentially the most appropriate for coming into roughly damaged tracks, whereas the suspension raised to the utmost turns into extra inflexible, which It would not assist the extent of experience consolation both.
Returning to the asphalt, it's clear that performance-wise its body is as much as the duty, however regardless of this it's nonetheless a automotive with some extent of consolation, able to caring for its occupants with a little bit extra care (even of their extra radical methods) than most of their German rivals. From Maserati they're clear that they need to supply a sports activities automotive like few others however that doesn't imply giving up premium consolation wherein the Italian model additionally stands out.
Added to that is the truth that the Grecale, even in its Trofeo end, continues to be a crossover midway between the C and D segments and subsequently with an idea far faraway from the model's grand tourers and supercars, with all the benefits and downsides that this entails.
It's a automotive 4.84 meters lengthy, 1.98 meters extensive and 1.66 meters excessive, with 5 doorways that give entry to a really practical inside, even for a household to make use of. Its trunk can also be very beneficiant, 570 liters, 35 liters extra by meting out on this case with the battery of the mini-hybrid system of its little brothers, however above all with the very best dedication to high quality and exclusivity of the model.
The supplies used are noble in nearly each element, with the standard and beautiful meeting that's anticipated of any product that sports activities a trident on its entrance. The controls and their configuration are easy, intuitive to make use of and impeccable in operation, besides maybe for the push-button selectors on the middle console which have a contact, typically inaccurate and that clashes with the practicality of managing this very operate ( as soon as in movement) with the massive and sensible paddles behind the wheel.
The Trophy additionally supplies us with unique particulars for this model, such because the carbon-style finishes inside and outdoors the passenger compartment, the dials on the steering wheel for the driving modes, the sports activities seats, with good help however higher consolation, the customizable ambient gentle or the panoramic roof amongst different points.
After all, all this has a worth and that's that the Maserati Grecale Trofeo, the utmost efficiency and end exponent of the vary, begins its worth from 132,000 euros, leaving that sure, as an choice a collection of technological packs that might properly be commonplace, akin to adaptive cruise management with Cease
