Maserati Grecale to be launched in India in early 2024

The Grecale comes in three variants: GT, Modena and Trofeo. It will compete with the Porsche Macan.

Maserati has confirmed that it will introduce the Grecale SUV in India in early 2024. Bookings for the premium SUV will commence by the end of this year.

The Grecale made its global debut in March last year. It is positioned as an entry-level SUV in the Italian brand’s line-up and competes with the likes of the Porsche Macan.

The Grecale borrows design cues from the larger Levante SUV and the MC20 supercar. It gets Maserati’s signature grille at the front, gills on the front fenders and the Trident logo on the C-pillar. It has slim wraparound tail lights with dual exhausts at the back.

Inside, the Grecale comes with a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with an 8.8-inch touchpad for the climate controls and a digital instrument cluster.

The Grecale comes in three variants: GT, Modena and Trofeo. The GT and Modena variants come with a 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with a mild-hybrid system, which produces 296 BHP on the entry-level GT variant and 325 BHP on the mid-spec Modena trim. Both variants come with the same torque figure of 450 Nm @ 2000 - 5000 rpm. The mild-hybrid system on the two variants consists of an electric compressor, a belt-starter generator and a 48V battery.

The range-topping Trofeo variant comes with a more powerful 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol engine producing 523 BHP and 620 Nm. All three variants come with a standard 8-speed automatic gearbox and an all-wheel drive system.
