First drive review of all-new Maserati GranCabrio Trofeo, the drop-top Italian with a twin-turbo V6 from the MC20 supercar
The last-gen car was a sales hit for Maserati so the firm is back in the game with this version, playing in a rarefied pool with very few natural rivals for the Trofeo and even fewer for the Folgore. Maserati can trace its history with convertibles right back to its pre-war days, but this latest model is somewhat of a break as for the first time it’s offered with an electric option and also without a V8.that features the same Twin Combustion technology but without the supercar’s dry sump.
Roof up or down, it looks utterly stunning, arguably the best of Maserati’s current offerings, with a long-nose, mid-cab stance that works so well on convertibles. The Trofeo does a much better job, managing to balance performance and comfort without having to compensate for all the extra mass of the Folgore’s batteries. It has superior body control and works over a wider range of the driver settings – switch it into Corsa for a twisty road by all means, but you can dial the separate suspension setting back to ‘S’ so it retains its comfort but doesn’t flop around. It’s a more agile car than the Folgore and reacts to inputs faster.
