Maserati Just Dropped a Makeover of Its Performance Line, Adding More Power and Style to These Italian Luxury Cars
Tapping details from its supercars, the 2027 Maserati GranTursimo, GranCabrio, and Grecale sport a chiseled new look, interior upgrades, better tech and more power.
The Maserati MC20 might be one of the most beautiful cars on the road, its fluid, sculpted lines and muscular rear end making eyes linger on it just a bit longer. But Maserati wants you to keep looking—at the rest of the lineup of performance cars. So the company brought details from the MC20 to deliver even more Italian luxury in the performance lineup. The 2027 Maserati GranTurismo, GranCabrio, and Grecale will be here in no time to elevate our daily commute.
Grazie, Maserati for adding even more Italian luxury to our drives. Santo Ficili, Alfa Romeo CEO and Maserati COO, shared last week that the brand is strengthening the distinctive quality that has defined the brand since it launched in 1914. It goes back to the performance-oriented GranTurismo, where design, elegance, and masterful craftsmanship come together in a balance of finesse without being too ostentatious. The timing couldn’t be better, as the Maserati Trident, the brand’s Neptune-inspired emblem signifying the company’s entrée into racing, turns 100 this year.
This whole glow-up actually started behind closed doors with Maserati’s ultra-exclusive track car, the MCXtrema. Now, that same bold, confident look has made its way to three of their mainstream models: the GranTurismo, the GranCabrio, and the Grecale. Together, this trio is bringing a massive style upgrade, featuring seriously luxurious new interiors that feel like a total sanctuary. But the real magic is hidden underneath the hood and chassis, where Maserati has quietly revolutionized how these cars handle the road.

Let’s Start With Modern Maserati Styling Cues
The 2027 Maserati Grecale SUV and its coupe siblings feature a new front face to deliver an aggressive attitude blended beautifully with rich elegance. You’ll notice that the front bumpers pair air intake curtains with air curtains to improve aerodynamics, while the GT models get a central splitter to stand out while enhancing grip in those tight corners.
On the outside, it’s all about the details—think fresh new headlights, gorgeous wheel designs, and sleek gloss-black accents that give these cars a seriously sophisticated vibe. Maserati is also introducing some stunning new paint colors, including a moody Jupiter Green, a dreamy Matte Blue Denim for the GT cars, and a chic Grigio Lamiera Shiny for the Grecale (plus, you can customize the convertible top way beyond the standard color menu).
They’ve also quietly raised the ride height on the Gran models just enough to make daily driving over bumpy city streets feel incredibly smooth and comfortable, without losing that sleek sports-car look. Best of all, if you want to play designer, Maserati just launched a super fun 3D visualization tool on their website. It lets you mix and match all the colors and options in real time, so you can perfectly picture your dream driveway setup before you ever talk to a dealer.

What Does The Maserati Interior Include?
The interiors of the GrandCabrio and GranTurismo get a little bit of pixie dust, too. Taking a page from the company’s racing encyclopedia, the steering wheel is flatter on the top and bottom, with gorgeous, dark satin aluminum. To keep up the sporty-chic look, metal, wood, and carbon-fibre are dotted throughout, to remind you of its performance luxury pedigree. These additions carry over to the new gear selector, which now vibrates to let you know the car has shifted.
New interior upholstery options include Bordeaux leather, Nuda Alcantara, or Black and tan leather along with a new Mahogany trim. The Maserati Digital Clock has a redesigned metal bezel octagonal shape with revised graphics and a pop-up function for mode changes. It pairs with a 12.3-inch central display, 8.8-inch Comfort display, 12.2-inch digital gauge cluster, and head-up display.
Maserati designers debut a new monitoring system that detects driver distraction and fatigue. Also, the Air neck warmer in the GranCabrio convertible allows you to keep the top down longer into cooler months. Last, but not least, the Maserati shift paddles are integrated with the advanced tech. A screen will announce when you’re in park-paddle mode and allow you to use the paddles to shift between drive and reverse. Accelerate above parking lot speeds to exit park-paddle mode.
