On the road, it’s a different story – get the Trofeo if you want flat-out performance. It hits 62 mph from a stop in 3.6 seconds, versus 4.1 seconds for the Folgore. The big difference in torque between the two variants is overshadowed by an even bigger difference in weight. Maserati says the battery weighs around 1,500 pounds; that’s like strapping a Citroën 2CV and its driver to the roof of the standard Grecale.
Like most EVs, especially in this segment of the market, the Folgore delivers smooth, linear, and quick acceleration. An interesting side-effect of selling gasoline- and battery-powered versions of the same model is that the powertrain differences immediately jump out at you.

Max Range is for those “oh, yikes, we’re going to run out of range” moments.
