Spring is the season for anticipation and fine product lines such as ours here at Jim Butler Maserati of St Louis do not see new releases as often as some other brands! So much planning and in-depth testing have been completed to prepare the MC20 for its debut, finally arriving on the scene 16 years after the track-focused MC12 came into existence. This mid-engined marvel that provides an absolutely pure and unadulterated glimpse of the future was caught on video by Motorsport publicly showing off its 124 mph performance.
Keeping the throttle gleefully pegged to the floor allows for a top speed over 202 mph, and power is derived from the turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 that is believed to share many bits of inspiration from Ferrari. It delivers 621 horsepower and 538 lb-ft of torque and also features amazing technology such as a dual-injection system and pre-chamber combustion with twin-spark plugs.
The car has been rumored to accelerate from 0-62 mph in less than 2.9 seconds, and this video shows that this is a real possibility. Taking a close look at this perfectly aerodynamic performance car, there are recessed door handles, a vividly flowing roof, and 20-inch wheels that are backed up by ventilated discs that are 15 inches up front and 13.8 inches in the rear. A ventilated fascia and sporty dual exhaust that is situated just above a large diffuser are other visual elements that set the MC20 apart from the competition, and the all-important drag coefficient stat resides at less than 0.38.
There are also plans for a convertible, which will likely be introduced sometime next year. With 107 years of car-building experience and numerous championship-gleaning models on our extensive list of accomplishments, the MC20 fulfilled the burning need for something bigger and more powerful than a car such as the Alfa Romeo 4C. There is a brand-new carbon-fiber monocoque that the MC20 was developed around, and the incoming convertible and electric models will use it as well.
The Nettuno is the dry-sump engine that is ferociously twin-turbocharged and ideally fitted with both direct and indirect fuel injection systems. Even though the breakneck speed factor is going to most likely be the MC20’s largest form of appeal, the car will also feature a “carbon fiber-clad central console” with a wireless smartphone charger and drive mode selector offering the choices of GT, Wet, Sport, Corsa, and ESC Off modes. We sincerely believe that this is going to instantly become one of the most game-changing and best-performing cars in existence, and invite you to check out various options for order placement and selection!
