If an electric Maserati passed you on the Pacific coast, you likely wouldn’t realize it was electric. Even if you were inside, you might still need a second to realize it. And that’s by design. And it’s a design I can get behind. I spent a few days in Santa Monica with the Maserati team, driving their vehicles through the most terrifying canyons (including an SUV) and listening to their passion for design.
During part of the drive, we even had a detour at an art gallery, where Klause Busse, Maserati’s Head of Design, talked about the importance of every design detail, down to the exact colors they picked for the vehicle lineup. Of course, this driving session focused on two of their gas-powered options: the 2027 GranCabrio Trofeo and Grecale Trofeo. But this obsession with perfection applies to their EVs as well.
