Maserati has revealed its first all-electric SUV vehicle, the Masterati Grecale Folgore, which translates to ‘Greek Thunderbolt.’

“It’s a defining moment for the Maserati brand,” CEO, Davide Grasso, said.

“It’s a new beginning for the brand. We’re celebrating Folgore, the electrification plan that has become a reality and is ready to pave the way in this revolutionary era.”

The Grecale Folgore will come with over 500 horsepower and over 590 pound-feet of torque, powered by a sizeable 105kWh battery. The brand states that the upcoming electric SUV will have a top speed of 124mph.
