Video Summary
- Maserati's first ever fully electric convertible has a very simple checklist: high performance, long driving range, and racing pedigree.- The GranCabrio Folgore is the drop-top version of the GranTurismo; Folgore means lightning in Italian.
- The Fulgore uses three electric motors, one at the front, and two at the rear, each making 340 horsepower. It makes 1,020 horsepower total.
- The battery cannot deliver the amount of power, restricting the car to 761 horsepower.
- 0 to 62mph can be reached in 2.8 seconds, .1 second faster than an MC20 supercar.
- The top speed is 180mph.
- The Motors are inspired by the units used in their Formula E race cars, silicon-carbide investors, and 1,015 Newton meters of torque.
- The charging port is on the back left and is fully motorized.
- The review found the range to be an issue.
- Wltp reports 280 miles but the reviewer states that is unrealistic.
- The looks are gorgeous.
- Custom high-end paint finishes can command a price of £15,000.
- The reviewer states that he loves the interior and mentions the quality of the materials, stating that the materials were Bentley level quality.
- The technology used in the car is also impressive.
- The stereo system abysmal.
- Warm air-blowing neck vents are deemed useless, and described the power as too weak.
- There’s not much scuttle shake in the chassis, so it’s not quite Rolls-Royce, or Bentley level.
- Rear electric motors allow the car to send 100% of the torque to one wheel or the other, allowing for rotation into bends with surprising enthusiasm.
- This car feels like a real sports car.
- By being fully electric, they are in a space where competition is almost nonexistent.
