Maserati has been hard at work on the new GranTurismo sports coupe, and ahead of its official debut, the company has released another set of teasers showing off its design.
In the case of these latest images shared on Instagram by both the company itself and one of the exterior designers, they show an all-electric version of the Folgore car, and for the first time it can be seen without camouflage.

Not much work, but we can say that the car will have vertical headlights, similar to the headlights on Supercar MC20. Between those headlights is a set of air ducts in the hood, which are both a stylistic and practical choice for improved aerodynamic efficiency.
There will also be a new, rounder grille that has a single, continuous crease at the bottom that spans the width of the bumper. This crease leads to two air intakes, which are now smaller, but they can afford it since this is an electric car and requires less cooling than a traditional internal combustion engine. With that in mind, though, we wonder what, if anything, will change for the ICE variant of this car.
Based on all the spy shots as well official photos of the camouflaged carwe can expect the rest of the design of both the EV and the ICE car to be evolutionary rather than revolutionary.

(@minbyungyoon)The GranTurismo Folgore is reported to be powered by a a trio of electric motors amounting to more than 1184 hp. (1,200 hp / 883 kW), which would allow the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in less than three seconds on its way to a top speed north of 186 mph (300 km). /g). And seeing as Maserati falls under the umbrella of the Stellantis group, it makes us wonder if Dodge, another member of the automotive conglomerate, will use this drivetrain (or a version of it) in its new electric Daytona SRT Charger. If that were the case, it would certainly back up their claim that the car will be more powerful than the Hellcat.
As previously mentioned, there will also be a gas-powered variant of the new GranTurismo, likely to include a version of the MC20’s 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 Nettuno with around 621 hp. (630 hp / 463 kW) and 538 lb-ft (730 Nm) of torque.
