The Maserati Grecale (Tipo M182) is a front-engine, five-door, five passenger compact luxury crossover SUV manufactured and marketed by the Maserati subdivision of Stellantis, entering production at the company's Cassino Plant in March 2022. Internally designated model M182, the Grecale shares the company's Giorgio platform with the Alfa Romeo Stelvio and the fifth generation Jeep Grand Cherokee.

The nameplate Grecale derives from the Mediterranean wind, Gregale.

Announcement

Maserati Grecale Modena

During the unveiling ceremony for the Maserati MC20 sports car in late 2020, Maserati also announced it would release an SUV below the Levante, named the Grecale.[1] It is to be offered with options of hybrid, full electric and petrol drivetrains.[1] The Maserati Grecale became available for purchase in North America in early 2023.[4]

Specifications

The Grecale is available with several mild hybrid inline-four powertrains and a 530 PS (390 kW) V6 engine for the Trofeo specification.[5] A full electric version, called the Folgore, is available. It is equipped with a 105 kWh battery and went on sale in 2023 as a 2024 model.[6] The Folgore features dual motors that each produce 279 hp (208 kW; 283 PS), adding up to 558 hp (416 kW; 566 PS) altogether.
