Video Summary
Here is the summary of the video:The Maserati GT Folgore, an all-electric vehicle, shares the same body with its ICE counterparts, ensuring a cohesive design and proportion. Vertical headlights are the biggest change.
Its battery is cleverly packaged in the central tunnel, keeping the floor low and the overall height unchanged. The all-electric Folgore has a motor in the front and a power control unit.
The complete body is identical to the ICE version. The all-electric Folgore can not open the bonnet, and lacks a front.
The interior is beautiful and modern, with three interior screens. The response of the touchscreen is quick. However, the drive selector button is not ideal; a traditional lever or dial would be preferred.
Even with the ICE versions having most of the mass concentrated upfront, the car still has close to a 50/50 weight distribution.
The Folgore puts out 761 combined horsepower; the battery can't quite discharge fast enough to support 1,200. Even with 700+ horsepower, it is fast, going 0-100kmph in 2.7 seconds. It has a top speed of 325 kmph.
The steering on the GT is nice, firm, and heavy. The test drive on the roads of Rome was on a wet and cold road. However, the driver has said the handling remains a delight. It has a very nice artificially-created sound, and the original beauty and elegance of the brand is still intact.
It is worth purchasing if luxury and sport are valued.
