The Maserati Grecale continues to shake up the typical luxury Italian-car mold. This isn’t an impractical, two-seat, V10 sports car; it’s a compact crossover for small families looking for stunning style. And there’s a Grecale for everyone, whether you crave a high-performance driving experience, a fuel-efficient hybrid, or an all-electric powertrain.

A range of engines will be available under the Grecale’s hood. There are two iterations of a four-cylinder mild-hybrid powertrain; one produces 296 horsepower, the other produces 325 hp. Opt for a Grecale Trofeo, and Maserati stuffs a 3.0-liter V6 in the engine bay, good for 523 horsepower and potent enough to push the Grecale from zero to 60 miles per hour in 3.6 seconds, on to a top speed of 177 mph.

The Grecale Folgore will sport a fully-electric drivetrain. The 400V system will make this the first completely electric vehicle in Maserati’s history.

Outside, the Grecale features a striking design inspired by the company’s new MC20 supercar. A low grille, carbon fiber components, and impressive boomerang-shaped taillights help it stand out. The signature three accents on each front fender help immediately identify it as a Maserati.

The Grecale stretches 191 inches long, with a 114-inch wheelbase, making it slightly longer than the Alfa Romeo Stelvio. The Trofeo trim-level also features a widened rear wheel track.

Inside, drivers are greeted by the signature Maserati clock sitting in the center of the dashboard. For the first time, though, Maserati’s analog clock is a digital face—and it works with voice commands. The clock sits above a striking 12.3-inch touchscreen display (the largest ever in a Maserati) which operates on the company’s Maserati Intelligent Assistant (MIA) software. An available Sonus Faber sound system employs 14 speakers in Premium level and 21 speakers in High Premium.

Being a Maserati, driving dynamics set a certain expectation. The Grecale sports the Maserati Vehicle Dynamic Control Module to amplify the driving experience, providing separate modes for Comfort, GT, Sport, Corsa (in Trofeo trim only), and an Off-Road mode. Imagine that: a Maserati with dedicated off-road features.
