Electric elegance arrives
Maserati Folgore sparks a new chapter in Phl
THE Grecale Folgore blends SUV practicality with Maserati’s bold step into all-electric performance.
Maserati Philippines has officially stepped into the electric age. At a private media event inside its showroom in San Juan, Modena Motorsports Inc., the brand’s official importer and dealer, unveiled the first-ever Maserati EVs for the country: the GranCabrio Folgore and Grecale Folgore.
THE GranCabrio Folgore makes a quiet entrance, with its soft-top roof folding away as effortlessly as its 761-hp electric drive delivers speed.
INSIDE the GranCabrio Folgore, electric performance meets handcrafted Italian luxury in every stitched curve and digital detail.
These new cars mark a shift in Maserati’s future, they on electricity, without letting go of the brand’s Italian flair and racing soul.
“This isn’t just the unveiling of new models,” said Sam Verzosa, President of Modena Motorsports Inc., “this is the ignition of a new mindset—where electrification is not a trend, but the future, and the future is now here. And Maserati leads that vision, combining innovation, sustainability, and unmistakable Italian soul.”
MASERATI’S Mody Llamas, Wellington Soong, and Sam Verzosa raise a toast to the brand’s bold electric leap with the Folgore lineup.
Folgore means “lightning” in Italian. And true enough, the new Maserati electric lineup brings serious thunder.
The GranCabrio Folgore is the world’s first fully electric luxury convertible. It runs on an 800V system with three electric motors, pumping out a massive 761 hp and 1,350 Nm of torque. It goes from zero to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds and hits a top speed of 290 km/h, all while offering open-top serenity for four. Its soft top folds away in just 14 seconds, even when the car is in motion.
