On April 15, 2024, Maserati celebrated its 110th anniversary by hosting the eagerly anticipated Folgore Day in Rimini, situated in Italy’s famed Motor Valley. This landmark event symbolized Maserati’s ambitious leap into the era of electric vehicles with the introduction of their Folgore range. It was not just a commemoration of Maserati’s rich legacy in producing iconic cars and achieving motorsport victories but also a vision of the future, showcasing their first fully electric models: GranTurismo Folgore, Grecale Folgore, GranCabrio Folgore, and the upcoming MC20 Folgore super sports car.
Folgore Day heralded a new chapter in Maserati’s history, setting a clear pathway towards complete electrification by 2028. This transformation aligns with their long-term strategy for sustainable growth, emphasizing constant evolution in design and technology, all while maintaining production in Italy. The event underscored the brand’s dedication to innovation, luxury, and Italian craftsmanship through the unveiling of the GranCabrio Folgore, an elegant convertible that embodies Maserati’s refined aesthetics and advanced engineering.

The day was filled with insights from Maserati’s CEO, Davide Grasso, and other key figures who discussed the integration of cutting-edge technology and design in their vehicles, solidifying Maserati’s role as a pioneer in luxury electric mobility.
Moreover, Folgore Day offered a glimpse into Maserati’s extended ventures such as the TRIDENTE, an all-electric luxury motorboat, reflecting the brand’s holistic approach to electrification that spans beyond automobiles to include maritime solutions.
This event not only marked a significant milestone for Maserati but also set the stage for a new era where luxury, performance, and electric propulsion converge, promising an exciting future for enthusiasts of the brand and the industry at large.
