Beefy specs for the flagship variant. A welcomed alternative to the Germans. The only turn-off could be price.

And Maserati quality!

And Maserati quality!

Looks like the Chrysler hand-me-downs have been overlooked.

Sounds like a pasta dish at pretentious restaurant - Grecale fettucini a la Folgore

Looking clean

Providing they’ve got the interior right? They have presented a very convincing product against the competition. This will be interesting.

Will the cabin smell like expensive Italian leather or pleather(imitation leather)?

I like it a lot. But can't help but feel it looks like a fat hatchback.. makes the Macan look more crossover-y than it is.

Coincidentally a cheery read Ford Puma slowly drove past me today. My instant thought was Grecale.


From the front they truly look like siblings.

I think you mean Smooovvvv Corinthian Leather?

 

[Merc1]

I'm still not 100% with it yet. They finally though have something to truly compete though. It will all come down to how it drives vs the Macan.

I will say it does look properly expensive here.

It isn't ugly per se but it looks too dull and uneventful unfortunately. I'm aware that Maserati doesn't want to be Alfa Romeo or Ferrari styling-wise as it has traditionally gone for a somewhat more serious and self-restrained design language, but lately the pendulum has swung too far towards the germanic end of the spectrum (see Frank Stephenson's comments on the MC20's lower layer), and even more so towards the bland been-there-done-that end, as this exterior without the tridents could easily have come from a number of other manufacturers (Ford front end, Jaguar rear end, generic profile...).

I'd like to see it unsettle the German premium oligopoly, but I'm afraid it lacks the passion-igniting spark that's needed to steer the target clientele away from the more rational and established alternative.

Agreed. The Grecale is 2-3 years too late and with an old fashioned Marketing + distribution model via limping FCA dealers, I don't see Maserati being saved from its mediocracy...

What's most important is that the Grecale will likely double or triple Maserati's production volume. This will be their best selling car.

Like: exterior. Don't love it but it's hard to fault any details.
M'eh: interior. Even for a Maser at this level, I'd want a bit more of a sense of occasion.
