Folgore: A New Symbol of Maserati’s Evolution

Folgore, meaning ‘lightning’ in Italian, perfectly captures the essence of Maserati’s dynamic shift towards electrification.

Extending Electrification Beyond the Road

In a pioneering move, Maserati also introduced TRIDENTE, an all-electric luxury motorboat, in collaboration with Vita Power. This extension of Maserati’s electrification strategy to the marine sector emphasizes the brand’s holistic approach to sustainable luxury, offering high-performance, elegance, and a reduced environmental footprint on water as well as land.

The launch of the “It Turns You On” campaign, featuring Italian rock sensation Damiano David, encapsulates the vibrant spirit of the new Maserati. This campaign, with its narrative of energy, style, and Italian flair, resonates deeply with a global audience, connecting the legacy of Maserati with a forward-thinking, environmentally conscious ethos.

A New Chapter for Maserati and Its Admirers
