The updated Grecale gets a redesigned front bumper and grille, with the Folgore version’s grille featuring an Air Grille Shutter (AGS) system that Maserati claims “improves airflow over the front bumper and underbody”. The front bumper sports Maserati’s “shark-nose” architecture inspired by the McPura supercar, and it integrates air curtains to channel airflow along the wheel arches. The Grecale is now offered with a new Grigio Lamiera Shiny finish from the brand’s Fuoriserie personalisation programme, along with new 20-inch Asteria and 21-inch Crono wheel designs.

The interior gets a new octagonal steering wheel upholstered in perforated leather or Alcantara and a new digital clock with a mineral crystal dial and metal bezel. The cabin of the updated Grecale can be had with authentic wood, carbon fibre and leather, as per Maserati. The drive (PRND) selector in the updated Grecale gets metal buttons and integrated backlighting, along with what the brand calls “capacitive haptic technology”. The Trofeo variant comes with GT, Off-Road, Sport and Corsa drive modes, while the Folgore adds a Max Range mode. Other features include the Maserati Intelligent Assistant (MIA), a 12.3-inch infotainment screen, a Sonus faber audio system with up to 21 speakers and air suspension.

Revisions to the exterior and interior aside, a 390hp turbocharged Nettuno V6 joins the line-up (as the Grecale V6 and Modena V6), with the brand stating that this engine has been “specifically calibrated to ensure generous torque at low revs and smooth power delivery”. The range-topping Trofeo V6 makes 530hp, which allows the SUV to accelerate from a standstill to 100kph in a claimed 3.8 seconds and get to a top speed of 285kph.

According to Maserati, aerodynamic refinements, new energy management algorithms and more efficient tyres have helped improve range. The brand claims that the range has increased by up to 9km for versions with the 20-inch wheels and by up to 53km for those with the 21-inch wheels. The Grecale Folgore has a 400-volt platform and a peak output of 550hp, while the maximum claimed range is 580km.

Maserati said it is currently in discussions with local investors regarding an expansion of its retail network in India. The company added that it first needs to strengthen dealer relations and representation before introducing the updated Grecale to our market. Maserati currently sells the pre-facelift Grecale, GranTurismo and GranCabrio in India in both ICE and fully electric Folgore forms. The Italian marque is also awaiting further clarity on the proposed India-EU free trade agreement (FTA), which could help it price its models in our country more competitively.
