Driving the Maserati Grecale and Reclaiming the Joy of the Everyday
There are cars that get you places. And then there are cars that make you late on purpose. The kind you detour with. The kind that turn a coffee run into a mini escape. The Maserati Grecale? Definitely the second kind.

You don’t so much drive it as you make an entrance. Even if it’s just pulling into the grocery store parking lot, you feel like you should be arriving somewhere important—preferably in sunglasses.The Grecale is Maserati’s answer to the question: What if luxury wasn’t just for special occasions? It's part of their “Everyday Exceptional” philosophy, which basically means you don’t have to save the drama for red carpets or date nights. You can have it on a Tuesday morning, too.
Four Ways to Feel Something Behind the Wheel
The 2025 Grecale comes in four versions, each with its own personality. The base model is surprisingly powerful, with a smooth hybrid engine and all the essentials. The Modena adds a bit of flair and sportiness—think of it as the “just a little more” edition. Then there’s the Trofeo: loud, bold, and impossible to ignore. It’s the kind of SUV that makes you grin every time you accelerate. And for those who like their thrill a little quieter, there’s the Folgore—Maserati’s first all-electric SUV. Sleek, silent, and seriously fast, it’s a whisper with a wild side.
A Colour for Every Mood
Italians have a way of making even paint feel poetic, and the Grecale is no exception. With colours like “Gold Venus” and “Blu Pastello,” choosing a finish is less like car shopping and more like building your dream closet. And yes, you can go bold—there’s an option that pairs a fiery orange exterior with baby blue leather seats. Somehow, it looks amazing. Go figure.

More Lounge, Less Cabin
Inside, the Grecale feels less like a vehicle and more like a stylish lounge that just happens to move. The leather is soft. The lighting is moody. The tech is sleek but unobtrusive. Every detail feels curated—from the stitching to the ambient hues. There are enough upholstery combinations to suit just about anyone’s taste, from modern minimalists to those who believe more is more.
The Luxury of Easy
Beyond the drive itself, Maserati is leaning into convenience. Service packages now cover everything from regular maintenance to concierge-style pick-up and drop-off. You can even opt for custom gear for your dog or your toddler—because why shouldn't everyone in the car feel spoiled?

A Moving Piece of Art
To celebrate the Grecale’s latest evolution, Maserati is taking it on tour—literally. The Urban Tour is part gallery installation, part roadshow, with stops at museums and design spaces across Italy. It’s a chance to see the SUV not just as transportation, but as a rolling piece of sculpture.
Why It Matters
In a world full of functional cars that fade into the background, the Grecale is refreshingly unafraid to make a statement. It reminds you that driving can still be a joy. That the way you get somewhere can be as meaningful as the destination itself. And sometimes, that’s exactly what we need—a beautiful reason to take the long way home.
