long promised, the Maserati Grecal it's getting closer and closer to production and so it's no big surprise that we've seen it appear again in two teasers.
This time, the SUV developed based on the Giorgio platform, the same that equips the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, appeared in a pair of (very) blurred photographs, but already circling, a little like the MC20 teasers.
Needless to say, these two teasers indicate that the Grecale development prototypes are already undergoing road tests in preparation for their release before the end of the year.
What do we already know?
Confirmed in 2018 by the then-deceased FCA CEO Sergio Marchionne, the Grecale aims to stand up to the successful Porsche Macan. You can't see much in the blurry teasers, but at the rear it's clear the boomerang-shaped luminous signature, evoking the 3200 GT, and retrieved in the recent Ghibli Hybrid.

As we told you, it will use the platform of the “cousin” Alfa Romeo Stelvio, however the engines should be from Maserati — the 2.0 Turbo 330 hp mild-hybrid 48 V debuted on the Ghibli is practically certain. A 100% electric version is already guaranteed and is expected to arrive in 2022.
As for production, this will take place at the Cassino plant, in Italy, in which Maserati plans to invest around 800 million euros. The launch of the Maserati Grecale meets the expectations of the Italian brand that in 2025 around 70% of its sales will correspond to SUVs.
