The Maserati GT2 Stradale is the perfect blend of raw power and sleek design here at Jim Butler Maserati of St. Louis. “Race Cars For the Road” have always captured our imagination, and the GT2 Stradale is no exception. Car and Driver recently praised this new model as a dream come true for car enthusiasts. Positioned between the lightning-fast GT2 race car and the iconic MC20, the Stradale is built for speed and style.
Starting on the same production line as the standard supercar, the GT2 Stradale undergoes significant upgrades. Its twin-turbocharged “Nettuno” V6 engine delivers 10 more horsepower than the MC20, allowing the Stradale to reach 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds, all on a rear-wheel-drive setup.
Designers have also managed to shave off 132 pounds compared to the MC20, making the Stradale even more aerodynamic. The carbon-fiber spoiler not only adds a striking visual touch but also features three adjustable positions. With its track-ready setup, the Stradale generates over 1,100 pounds of downforce at 173 mph.
The front end of the Stradale now sports a “shark nose” design, enhancing airflow. The hood vents and front fenders pay tribute to Maserati’s iconic trident logo, while the rear fender vents improve engine cooling by 16%.
Inside, the GT2 Stradale strikes a perfect balance between the GT2 and MC20. The interior is minimalist, with only a few buttons outside the touchscreen for essential functions like volume, drive mode, and reverse. For those who crave even more performance, the “Corsa Evo” mode offers four levels of intensity.
The Performance Package adds semi-slick Michelin tires, an electronic limited-slip differential with custom calibrations, and carbon-ceramic brakes. The Performance Pack Plus includes these features and adds a fire extinguisher and 4-point harness for the ultimate driving experience.
Evo.co.UK praised the flat-topped steering wheel with integrated shift lights, carbon bucket seats, and Alcantara-topped dash. Motor Trend excitedly noted that “a more extreme version of an existing supercar always comes.” With a top speed of around 201 mph, the Stradale is ready to compete with the Porsche GT3 RS and Ferrari 292 GTB.
The Maserati GT2 Stradale is a 21st-century supercar designed to thrill, offering increasingly extreme versions to satisfy even the most demanding drivers.
