The Famil iar GranTurismo With a Modern Edge Experience the heart of Italian performance. The Maserati GranTurismo remains a masterpiece of design and engineering, built on an innovative platform introduced in 2024. The 2025 model lets you feel every mile with the exhilarating power and sound of its twin-turbo V6 engine. Maserati has stayed true to the GranTurismo’s heritage of grace and grand touring confidence. Every curve of the exterior feels sculpted by motion itself: low, wide, and undeniably Italian. It’s a shape that looks just as stunning pulling up to a downtown restaurant in Clayton as it does gliding along the Great River Road at sunset. Performance That Feels Alive At the core of the GranTurismo lineup is the Nettuno engine, Maserati’s own 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 masterpiece. In the Modena trim, this engine produces 483 horsepower and 443 lb-ft of torque, while the Trofeo version amplifies the thrill with 542 horsepower and 479 lb-ft. Both are paired with an eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission and standard all-wheel drive, delivering instant traction and commanding acceleration. Its adaptive air suspension and advanced chassis control systems harmonize comfort and control, ensuring a refined ride on St. Louis’s scenic backroads or the open interstate. A Cabin Crafted for the Senses Step inside the GranTurismo, and the atmosphere immediately shifts. The cabin embodies Maserati’s dedication to artistry and performance. Every surface is finished in fine Italian materials. Leather, Alcantara, and metal accents that blend seamlessly into the brand’s modern design language. The driver’s cockpit is anchored by a 12.3-inch primary display for infotainment, positioned above an 8.8-inch touchscreen for climate and vehicle settings. This dual-screen setup creates a sleek, futuristic aesthetic while keeping key functions within effortless reach. A 12.2-inch digital gauge cluster delivers crystal-clear driving information, and Maserati’s signature digital clock on the dashboard is a subtle nod to tradition. Connectivity is intuitive, with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and built-in navigation ensuring seamless integration for every journey. Optional upgrades like a 360-degree camera system, a digital rearview mirror, and a 19-speaker Sonus Faber sound system further elevate the experience. Whether streaming classical music on a weekend getaway or enjoying quiet solitude, the GranTurismo’s sound environment feels carefully orchestrated. Everyday Practicality, Maserati Style While the GranTurismo is first and foremost a grand tourer, its thoughtful design ensures daily usability. The 2+2 seating configuration provides generous space for front occupants, with finely contoured, heated, and ventilated seats designed for long-distance comfort. The rear seats, ideal for shorter trips or carrying extra luggage, add to the GranTurismo’s flexibility. A well-designed trunk offers space for weekend bags or a few carefully chosen purchases from classy downtown St. Louis boutiques. Every inch of the cabin feels designed for purpose: elegant, ergonomic, and exceptionally crafted. Safety and Confidence Maserati offers a comprehensive suite of advanced driver assistance systems to enhance confidence on every drive. Available features include blind-spot monitoring, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and highway driving assist. These intelligent technologies work seamlessly in the background, adding peace of mind without compromising the vehicle’s pure driving engagement. 2025 Maserati GranTurismo: The Essence of Italian Grand Touring The 2025 Maserati GranTurismo embodies everything the Maserati name stands for: performance born of passion, craftsmanship refined through generations, and design that speaks a universal language of beauty. It’s the ideal companion for the driver who sees every road as an opportunity to experience emotion, not just transportation.Whether it’s the exhilarating strength of the Trofeo or the quiet confidence of the Modena, the GranTurismo lineup represents a true fusion of past, present, and future.

Grand touring cars have always carried a special allure. They’re built for covering long distances quickly and comfortably while turning heads with timeless style. The classic GT recipe is simple: elegant lines, an engine up front, rear-wheel power, and two seats. The 2025 Maserati GranCabrio Trofeo follows the spirit of this tradition while introducing a modern twist. With seating for four and intelligent all-wheel drive, it expands the definition of a GT without compromising the qualities enthusiasts crave here at Jim Butler Maserati of St. Louis. The Convertible Maserati That Defines the Segment The GranCabrio is the open-top sibling of Maserati’s GranTurismo, carrying the same DNA but with the added joy of open-air driving. A “ Trofeo” badge on the fender signifies the most thrilling version of the car. Even so, the Trofeo isn’t harsh or punishing; it maintains the balance of comfort that is essential in a true grand tourer. This model represents Maserati at its best. After years where some sedans and SUVs missed the mark, the GranCabrio shows that the brand still knows how to craft a luxurious sports car worthy of its trident badge. Nettuno Power Under the Hood At first glance, the long hood and sculpted lines might lead one to assume there’s a massive V8 or even a V12 beneath. Instead, Maserati equips the GranCabrio Trofeo with its now-celebrated 3.0-liter twin-turbo Nettuno V6. In this configuration, it produces 542 horsepower and 479 lb-ft of torque. The result is a 0–60 mph sprint in just 3.4 seconds—serious speed by any measure. Numbers aside, what makes the Nettuno engine stand out is its character. Many twin-turbo V6 engines can sound muted, but Maserati’s unit delivers a rich, throaty growl, especially with the top down. It strikes the right balance between refined and exciting, never obnoxious, always engaging. Power delivery is smooth and confident, exactly what a grand tourer should provide. A Transmission That Fits the Mission Instead of an exotic dual-clutch or race-inspired gearbox, Maserati wisely chose the ZF eight-speed automatic. Known for its reliability and precision, this transmission shifts quickly and seamlessly. When paired with Maserati’s signature metal paddle shifters mounted to the steering column, it becomes an absolute joy to use. Each pull of the paddle feels substantial, with a satisfying click that reminds drivers of the craftsmanship behind the wheel. Designed With Italian Flair Maserati has always been associated with beauty, and the GranCabrio doesn’t disappoint. Where some recent Maserati models divided opinion, the GranCabrio is universally admired. With the roof up, the car maintains an elegant silhouette. With the roof down, its proportions shine even more, making it one of the most graceful convertibles in its class. The design is understated compared to some Italian exotics, but that subtlety is part of its charm. Even in black, the car commands attention without shouting for it. It’s a head-turner in the most sophisticated way. An Interior That Balances Luxury and Function Inside, the GranCabrio delivers an atmosphere that blends modern technology with classic Italian craftsmanship. While not overly dramatic, the cabin feels special thanks to high-quality materials, supportive seating, and thoughtful design. Small details, like the near-perfect steering wheel and premium finishes, elevate the driving experience. Importantly, the interior is designed for comfort during both spirited drives and long highway stretches. Comfort Meets Capability The hallmark of a grand tourer is its ability to straddle the line between performance and comfort. The GranCabrio Trofeo does this masterfully. With adaptive air suspension offering multiple modes, the car glides over city streets yet tightens up when the road demands precision. Drivers can even soften the suspension while keeping steering and throttle response sharp, creating a perfect balance between sportiness and ride quality. On long journeys, the GranCabrio remains stable and composed, even at higher speeds. Road noise is minimal, and with the top down, conversations can be held easily at highway pace. The Sonus Faber audio system further enhances the cabin experience, ensuring music or phone calls come through crystal clear. More Than Just Performance Numbers What makes the GranCabrio Trofeo stand out isn’t just its horsepower or acceleration times; it’s the complete package. Every element, from the sound of the Nettuno V6 to the craftsmanship of the paddles, contributes to an experience that feels both indulgent and exhilarating. This isn’t just a car for weekend drives; it’s a companion for every journey, whether it’s a road trip across Missouri or a simple night out on the town. Final Thoughts The 2025 Maserati GranCabrio Trofeo proves that Maserati is still a master of the grand touring formula. It blends breathtaking style, thrilling performance, and genuine comfort in a way few cars can match. While others may boast bigger engines or flashier designs, few strike the perfect balance quite like this convertible GT.For drivers in Missouri looking for a car that embodies Italian elegance while delivering real-world usability, the GranCabrio Trofeo represents the pinnacle of the segment. It’s not just a convertible; it’s a statement of passion, performance, and timeless design.

In September 2025, all of us here at Jim Butler Maserati of St. Louis turned their attention to northern Italy, where the second edition of the TUTTO BENE Hillclimb transformed the road to Mottarone into a rolling celebration of design, culture, and performance. Against the breathtaking scenery of Lake Maggiore, Maserati captured hearts and headlines by debuting the striking GT2 Stradale in a stunning Giallo Genio finish with a sophisticated black and grey interior. The event itself was not about speed records or competition. Instead, it embodied the philosophy of “slow down to go fast”, a reminder that the true joy of driving comes from the experience. With no official timing or racing pressure, participants and spectators alike enjoyed the sound, feel, and artistry of the automobiles as they made the climb, united by the love of motoring. A Stage Worthy of Icons The Hillclimb, designed by BorromeoDeSilva with support from Race Service, unfolded along the historic Strada Borromea, a private route that winds more than seven kilometers from the town of Gignese to the summit of Mottarone. Approximately 80 cars joined the parade, ranging from contemporary performance machines to timeless classics, each carefully selected under the simple yet powerful motto: “only cool cars allowed.” On this road, surrounded by Italian landscapes and historic charm, the Maserati GT2 Stradale proved to be the showstopper. The sound of its Nettuno engine reverberated through the hills, leaving no doubt that Maserati’s spirit of performance remains strong. The GT2 Stradale: Race-Bred, Road-Ready For Maserati, the GT2 Stradale represents a bold new chapter. Derived directly from the Maserati GT2 that signaled the brand’s triumphant return to closed-wheel racing, this road-going version blends two core Maserati pillars: racing heritage and refined elegance. The Stradale, powered by the V6 Nettuno engine, showcases explosive acceleration while refined enough for daily driving. Its reduced weight compared to the Maserati MC20 makes it the most powerful road-legal Maserati with a combustion engine. Every curve, detail, and sound speaks to a car that was created to connect track-bred performance with road-going comfort. This is not simply a sports car; it is a statement. The Stradale embodies Maserati’s dedication to translating decades of racing expertise into an exhilarating yet accessible driving experience. For those who crave exclusivity paired with dynamic capability, this vehicle is the ultimate expression of Italian craftsmanship. Tradition Meets Innovation By participating in the TUTTO BENE Hillclimb, Maserati demonstrated once again how seamlessly the brand bridges heritage with modern vision. Events like this highlight more than horsepower; they showcase culture, design, and lifestyle. The GT2 Stradale stood as a living symbol of Maserati’s ongoing mission. It brings the thrills of the racetrack to the open road without compromising elegance. The message was clear: Maserati is not simply building cars. Maserati is cultivating an experience that reflects Italian excellence, contemporary luxury, and timeless passion for driving. The Maserati Lineup: Beyond Stradale While the spotlight naturally focused on the GT2 Stradale, the Maserati lineup continues to expand and innovate. From the Grecale SUV, crafted for everyday versatility, to the legendary GranTurismo and the new GranCabrio, every model is designed to set benchmarks in style, performance, and comfort. At the very top of the performance spectrum, the Maserati MC family carries Formula 1-derived technologies into production cars, combining state-of-the-art engineering with unmistakable Italian flair. Each model is a continuation of Maserati’s mission to deliver luxury without compromise. Why It Matters in St. Louis For Maserati enthusiasts and future owners here in St. Louis, the GT2 Stradale’s presence at such a prestigious international event underscores what sets Maserati apart. It is not just about driving; it is about belonging to a tradition that values craftsmanship, performance, and individuality. Owning a Maserati means more than owning a car; it means embracing an identity where every detail, from the roar of the engine to the stitching of the leather, reflects a pursuit of excellence. The GT2 Stradale is proof that Maserati continues to innovate while staying true to its legendary heritage. A Future Written in Performance and Elegance The TUTTO BENE Hillclimb highlighted a simple truth. Maserati is building the future of mobility with the same artistry and spirit that made it iconic. Whether it’s the visceral thrill of the GT2 Stradale, the everyday sophistication of the Grecale, or the forward-looking design of the Folgore range, Maserati remains dedicated to delivering vehicles that inspire. As the automotive world evolves, Maserati continues to set the pace, blending tradition, technology, and passion into every model. For drivers who want more than transportation, Maserati offers something rare: a chance to become part of a story that celebrates performance and elegance in equal measure.

Some days stand apart from the rest. Sometimes it’s the little things, a forgotten twenty-dollar bill in a pocket, hitting green lights all the way home, or finding an extra fry in the bag. Sometimes it's something much bigger, like the keys to an entire fleet of Maseratis at one of the world's most iconic racetracks, Circuit of the Americas. For us at Jim Butler Maserati of St. Louis, moments like these remind us why we’re passionate about bringing the thrill of Maserati to our drivers every single day. If the Track Shoe Fits, Send It Maserati often evokes the idea of sophisticated style and exclusivity. But beyond the luxury, this storied brand has spent more than a hundred years carving its reputation alongside icons like Ferrari, Porsche, Aston Martin, and Mercedes-Benz. Its racing heritage ensures Maserati more than deserves its standing among the greats. That heritage is about to hit its 100-year milestone in 2026. And what better way to honor the past than unleashing Maserati’s modern lineup, plus a rare hypercar, on a Formula 1 circuit built for speed? The Apex Predator: Maserati MCXtrema Among the stars was a beast few will ever experience: the Maserati MCXtrema. Built in just 62 examples, this stripped-down monster is pure race car with license plates optional. At its heart lies Maserati’s Nettuno V6, tuned to deliver 730 horsepower. The result is a purpose-built hypercar that carves corners with surgical precision and leaves even seasoned enthusiasts hanging on for dear life. Maserati's Nettuno Era One thing stands out in Maserati’s 2025 lineup: efficiency in engineering. From the elegant GranTurismo and GranCabrio to the supercar-grade MC20 and GT2 Stradale, even Maserati’s performance SUVs, all share the same core, the 3.0L twin-turbo Nettuno V6. This Modena-built engine, introduced in 2020, defines the brand’s rebirth. Output varies by application: from 490–542 hp in the GranTurismo, to 621–631 hp in the MC20 and track-focused GT2 Stradale, culminating in the MCXtrema’s outrageous 730 hp. GranTurismo Trofeo: Beauty vs. the Brakes First up was the GranTurismo Trofeo. A grand tourer with timeless lines, it looks every bit the Italian showpiece. Inside, premium materials wrap passengers in comfort, reminding drivers that this is a luxury cruiser first and foremost. But on COTA’s 20 demanding turns, luxury fought against physics. With softer bolstering, a tendency to roll in corners, and brakes that warmed up faster than the tires, the Trofeo asked drivers to dance rather than wrestle. Once settled into its rhythm, the GranTurismo proved why it’s more at home devouring coastal highways than carving apexes. Maserati's Street Jet Fighter: GT2 Stradale Then came the GT2 Stradale. The moment the butterfly door arcs open, it’s clear: this isn’t a sports car, it’s a supercar with fighter jet DNA. Controls are minimalistic, function-driven, and purposeful. Drive modes could easily be renamed “Fast, Faster, and Mamma Mia.” On track, the Stradale feels like an extension of the driver. Every input is mirrored instantly with razor-sharp precision. Steering is light, suspension ironclad, and acceleration brutal. It’s not just fast; it’s confidence distilled into carbon fiber. MC20 Cielo Spyder: Elegance with Bite The MC20 Cielo Spyder takes the same formula and layers on a dose of sophistication. With its retractable roof, it delivers a balance few supercars achieve: raw performance paired with open-air drama. Zero to 60 arrives in three seconds flat, but the delivery is smoother than champagne on a private jet. Where the GT2 is a scalpel, the Cielo is a ballet dancer with teeth. MCXtrema Hot Laps: Sheer Chaos For sheer adrenaline, nothing touched riding shotgun in the MCXtrema with Maserati’s own Daniele Manca behind the wheel. At 150+ mph, g-forces pinned bodies to seats, braking felt like colliding with gravity itself, and every corner tested the limits of human reflex. It wasn’t just a ride; it was controlled violence on wheels. The aftermath? Equal parts awe and physical surrender. Maserati's Final Lap Maserati’s lineup at COTA showcased a brand with renewed focus. From luxury grand tourers to track-bred supercars and a hypercar that borders on terrifying, Maserati reminded the automotive world why its trident logo still belongs at the sharp end of performance. Now it’s your turn to feel it. The grip in the corners, the surge of g-force, the goosebumps that only a Maserati can deliver. Whether it’s the elegance of the GranTurismo, the precision of the GT2 Stradale, the open-air thrill of the MC20 Cielo, or the sheer intensity of the MCXtrema’s DNA, every Maserati is built to awaken something inside you. Schedule your test drive today at Jim Butler Maserati and see why the trident still rules the road.

There’s no better stage than the Goodwood Festival of Speed to unveil something truly special, and Maserati delivered. Making its debut with unmistakable presence, the all-new MCPura and MCPura Cielo represent the next step in Maserati’s mid-engine journey. While this stunning new model builds on the MC20’s already-impressive foundation, it raises the bar with enhanced design, refined aerodynamics, and thoughtful updates inside and out. At Jim Butler Maserati St. Louis, we’re thrilled to welcome this evolution. Familiar Performance, Elevated Experience Under the sculpted surface, the MCPura carries the heart of the MC20, the hand-crafted Nettuno twin-turbo V6 engine, which delivers a thrilling 621 horsepower and 538 lb-ft of torque. Power flows through an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, giving you the kind of instant response that defines Italian performance. From a standstill to 60 mph, it’s quick with acceleration times clocking under 2.9 seconds. And with a top speed of 202 mph, this machine remains a serious contender in the world of supercars. What makes the Maserati brand so unique is the emotional connection it creates between machine and driver. Every sound, every shift, and every contour of the MCPura reflects Maserati’s racing heritage and relentless pursuit of excellence. It's not just about performance numbers, it's about the feeling of unleashing power with precision, and the confidence that comes from driving something crafted with passion. For those who crave the soul of a race car with the refinement of Italian luxury, Maserati continues to stand in a league of its own. Aerodynamics Inspired by Maserati Motorsports While the silhouette pays tribute to the MC20, every detail on the Maserati MCPura has been meticulously refined. With over 2,000 hours of wind tunnel testing in collaboration with Dallara, Maserati engineers sculpted new front and rear fascias for improved aero balance and cooling efficiency. Design cues from the GT2 Stradale and MCXtrema race programs give the car a purposeful edge, while an available oversized rear spoiler adds functional flair for those who crave more downforce. It’s a design that honors the past while pushing forward, without losing a hint of elegance. Stunning Colors, Unmistakable Presence The Maserati MCPura makes a statement before the engine even starts. Debuting in a bold Aqua Rainbow hue, available in matte or gloss depending on the model, this color turns heads. Maserati’s extensive palette includes striking options like Devil Orange, Grigio Mistero, Rosso Vincente, and Giallo Genio, to name a few. Each color pairs with a sleek dark lower fascia, ensuring a look that’s cohesive and unmistakably Maserati. A Cockpit Designed Around the Driver Step inside the MCPura and you’ll find a cabin wrapped in premium Alcantara, designed with purpose and passion. From the laser-etched seat accents to the racing-inspired Alcantara steering wheel, every inch feels focused yet luxurious. Two 10.25-inch digital displays bring the latest infotainment technology to your fingertips, powered by Maserati’s newest Android-based system for a seamless and intuitive experience. The MCPura Cielo variant takes things even further with a retractable glass roof, filling the cabin with natural light while maintaining the coupe’s performance DNA. Ready for the Next Chapter?

We’ve been thrilled here at Jim Butler Maserati of St. Louis as the streets of Brescia are once again alive with the sights, sounds, and spirit of racing heritage as the 2025 Mille Miglia begins. Known as one of the most revered road rallies in the world, this 1,900-kilometer journey through Italy’s scenic and historic towns draws not just cars, but icons. Among the stunning lineup of modern Maserati machines like the GranCabrio and GranTurismo Trofeo, it’s a 70-year-old classic that’s captivating the crowd. Cameras, fans, and fellow competitors can’t look away from the unmistakable presence of the Maserati A6 GCS/53 —a masterpiece of pure driving passion and enduring legacy. Chassis 2043: The Heart of a Racing Legacy This isn’t just any classic car. Chassis number 2043 holds a legendary place in Maserati’s racing story. With five consecutive Mille Miglia appearances between 1953 and 1957—more than any other Maserati —it holds the kind of legacy reserved for motorsport royalty. Piloted by renowned drivers like Luigi Musso, this A6 GCS/53 wasn’t simply a participant—it was a relentless competitor. Its return to the Mille Miglia 70 years later isn’t just nostalgic; it’s historic. The car is now in the process of receiving Maserati Classiche certification, further cementing its place as one of the most iconic vehicles in the brand’s storied past. This program is Maserati’s way of honoring and preserving the authenticity of its most celebrated models. Engineering That Dared to Dream Beneath the timeless curves of the A6 GCS/53 is a marvel of 1950s engineering. Powered by a short-stroke, twin-ignition “Superquadro” engine, this car was built to rev high and race hard. With twin overhead camshafts and Formula 1-level technology of the era, the engine delivered spirited performance with a compact, lightweight design that was far ahead of its time. While it never claimed an overall Mille Miglia victory, it consistently outperformed expectations, earning class wins and the admiration of fans worldwide. In its debut, the car placed sixth overall and first in its class—an extraordinary result that helped write its legend. A6 GCS/53: A Historic Icon Among Modern Powerhouses Maserati didn’t arrive in Italy with only a classic. Alongside the A6 GCS/53, the brand brought a full showcase of its modern lineup to support the 2025 Mille Miglia. The GranTurismo Trofeo, GranCabrio, and Grecale Trofeo all serve as official support vehicles for the event, each adorned in commemorative liveries honoring 100 years of the iconic Trident badge. Together, they form a striking display of old-world heritage and modern-day performance—a celebration of Maserati’s evolution over a century. The Maserati Classiche Program: Preserving The Greatness Of The A6 GCS/53 The inclusion of the A6 GCS/53 in Maserati’s Classiche program marks a significant chapter in its legacy. This initiative was created to authenticate and preserve the most important models in the brand’s history, ensuring that masterpieces like chassis 2043 are meticulously documented and maintained to factory standards. Every bolt, badge, and bend is verified to honor its original spirit. For collectors, historians, and fans, this process is vital for keeping Maserati’s soul alive for generations to come. From Track to Road—A Story Still Being Written What makes the Mille Miglia so special is its dual identity as both a race and a rolling museum. In that spirit, the A6 GCS/53 doesn’t just represent Maserati’s past—it continues to inspire the brand’s future. The passion and innovation that defined this classic racer still influence modern Maseratis like the GranTurismo Trofeo and MC20. Every curve in the A6’s design, every revolution of its engine, helped shape the cars Maserati builds today. It's proof that some stories are too powerful to stay parked. Why the A6 GCS/53 Still Steals the Show The spotlight belongs to the A6 GCS/53 for one simple reason—it tells a story no modern machine can replicate. While today’s vehicles are technological marvels, this classic Maserati represents something deeper. A raw, fearless era where racing was as much about courage as it was about horsepower. This is a car for those who truly understand the Maserati spirit. It doesn’t just roll onto the road—it brings with it a history of grit, elegance, and passion. For those who appreciate more than speed—for those who revere soul, heritage, and legacy—the A6 GCS/53 is the crown jewel of this year’s Mille Miglia.

Here at Jim Butler Maserati of St. Louis, we’re proud to represent a brand that not only defines Italian luxury but also continues to shape the future of performance. This year, Maserati took center stage at the Motor Valley Fest in Modena—a four-day celebration of automotive excellence running from June 5 to 8. And make no mistake, the Trident shone brighter than ever. A Festival Rooted in Maserati’s Hometown This open-air event, set in the heart of Italy’s Motor Valley, is a showcase of heritage and innovation—and for Maserati, it was personal. With over 80 years rooted in Modena, the brand chose this iconic location to celebrate the " Year of the Trident ", honoring the emblem that first roared to life on the Tipo 26 at the 1926 Targa Florio. The festivities began with Maserati CEO Santo Ficili speaking at the Teatro Storchi, setting the tone for a weekend that beautifully blended the past, present, and future of the brand. The GT2 Stradale: Race-Bred Power Meets Road-Ready Elegance One of the undeniable highlights? The new GT2 Stradale —a street-legal stunner inspired by the Maserati GT2 race car. Finished in an elegant Powder Nude, the car drew admiring glances as it stood proudly in Piazza Roma. Under its sculpted hood lies the incredible 640-horsepower Nettuno V6 engine—the most powerful road-going internal combustion engine Maserati has ever produced. This is not just a car—it’s a declaration. It combines raw power with refined design in a way only Maserati can. It’s the kind of machine that speaks to both your adrenaline and your aesthetic sensibilities. GranCabrio Folgore: Pure Electric, Pure Maserati Right nearby, the all-new GranCabrio Folgore turned heads with its striking Orange Devil finish. It’s Maserati’s first fully electric convertible, running on 800V technology for blistering performance and seamless charging. We were thrilled to see this groundbreaking vehicle make such a bold debut—it’s a glimpse into the future of Maserati. Production of the GranCabrio kicks off in Modena by the end of 2025, joining the GT2 Stradale and MC20 in proudly wearing the “Made in Modena” badge. A Look Inside the Heart of Maserati During the festival, Maserati opened the doors of its historic Viale Ciro Menotti facility to the public. Visitors from around the globe walked the same floors where icons like the MC20 are crafted by hand. Guided tours on June 7 and 8 gave enthusiasts a rare behind-the-scenes experience, allowing them to witness firsthand the meticulous artistry that defines every Maserati. Classic Heritage Meets Modern Expression The celebration extended beyond just new models. Vintage Maseratis graced the Classics Pavilion at Giardini Ducali, while rare Mini vs Abarth matchups and a Supercar parade turned the streets into a moving museum. It was a vivid reminder of Maserati’s deep legacy and craftsmanship—elements that still inspire every new vehicle we offer here.

From longtime Maserati aficionados to those stepping into the brand for the first time, our lineup offers something uniquely exhilarating. Looking for heritage-rich power?

The future of luxury driving is officially open and pushing the envelope here at Jim Butler Maserati of St Louis —and we're thrilled to share that our first all-electric convertible has arrived. Introducing the 2025 Maserati GranCabrio Folgore, a sleek, high-performance drop-top that combines zero-emissions driving with unmistakable Italian flair. Unveiled in the charming coastal town of Rimini, Italy, the GranCabrio Folgore made waves—quite literally. With a debut full of Maserati charm (including a set by a well-known Italian DJ), this convertible makes a bold statement: you no longer have to sacrifice performance or style for electric driving. Power Meets Panache This isn’t just another EV—it’s a Maserati. Built on the same platform as the GranTurismo Folgore, the GranCabrio version adds the thrill of open-air motoring with only 176 additional pounds. That means you get nearly identical power and performance as the hardtop sibling, thanks to its triple-motor setup (each producing 300 kW) and advanced 800-volt architecture, derived from Maserati’s Formula E experience. Maserati’s legendary head of design, Klaus Busse, ensured this model stays true to its roots. A distinctive inverted grille sets the EV lineup apart, while aerodynamic air vents replace traditional solid bars—creating a front end that’s bold, functional, and unmistakably Maserati. Open-Top Performance, Elevated Despite its electric nature, the GranCabrio doesn’t skip the Maserati soundtrack. With the V8 engine being phased out, engineers mapped its iconic sound and reimagined it digitally through a Sonus Faber audio system. The result? A roar that’s still pure Maserati—even if it comes from speakers instead of pistons. Choose from two setups: a 13-speaker system or an upgraded 16-speaker surround sound experience with over 1,000 watts of power. Open the soft top in just 14 seconds, even while driving at speeds up to 31 mph. Neck warmers keep the front passengers comfortable during cooler top-down adventures—one of many thoughtful touches that make the GranCabrio ideal for every season. Four Drive Modes, One Electrifying Ride Whether you’re looking to conserve battery or unleash maximum power, the GranCabrio Folgore adapts to your mood. Choose from: Max Range: Limits speed and climate control for ultimate efficiency. GT Mode: For smooth, long-distance cruising. Sport Mode: More dynamic power and enhanced sound. Corsa Mode: Full performance—no compromises. Luxury, Personalization, and Purpose Personalize your GranCabrio Folgore with 27 unique paint finishes and six wheel designs (staggered 21"/20"). Inside, Maserati continues its sustainability push with elegant materials made from recycled nylon, including waste recovered from ocean fishing nets and discarded carpets. Thanks to the Atlantis High electrical architecture (the same system found in the GranTurismo and other high-end Stellantis vehicles), the GranCabrio features state-of-the-art security, software updates, and connectivity features, all designed in-house by Maserati’s innovation team. Performance Meets Craftsmanship Underneath its sculpted bodywork, the GranCabrio Folgore is a masterclass in engineering precision. Its near-perfect weight distribution and low center of gravity translate to sports car-like handling, while the instant torque from its tri-motor setup ensures a surge of power the moment you touch the accelerator. It may be electric, but this convertible doesn’t compromise on the Maserati driving experience—quick, confident, and composed at every turn. Designed to Stir the Soul From its dramatic silhouette to its signature Trident details, the GranCabrio Folgore balances elegance with aggression. The soft-top roof folds seamlessly into the body, preserving its sleek lines whether it's up or down. Klaus Busse’s attention to detail is evident in every element, creating a design that pays homage to Maserati’s heritage while propelling it into a bold new era. Ready for the Road—and the Future The 2025 GranCabrio Folgore brings together world-class luxury, thrilling performance, and unmistakable Maserati style—with an electrifying new edge. Even as the brand shifts to all-electric by 2028, this convertible shows the future of driving can still be bold, beautiful, and exciting. If you’re ready to experience electric performance without compromise, come visit us soon. We can’t wait to introduce you to the GranCabrio Folgore—the EV that proves sustainability can still turn heads and stir souls.
