new spring In late spring, there was perhaps no better way to wow the motoring world. Maserati removed the MC20 roof (here to learn more), the supercar that, two years ago, marked the beginning of a new path for the home of the Trident.

The Limited Edition PrimaSerie Launch Edition, reserved for about sixty units, enhances the sporty and sporty lines of the Maserati MC20 Silo Playing on very subtle color combinations. Aquamarine paint, one of several special colors offered by the Maserati Fuoriserie’s personalization program, blends elegantly with the passenger compartment, finished in Glacier White leather and Alcantara and trimmed with carbon-fiber inserts in a matte finish. The amazing “butterfly” opening system for the doors is taken from the MC20, while the tRetractable glass cover Electrochromates. By touching a button on the 10-inch central screen, it takes just 12 seconds to open and close it, while another command, thanks to a special PDLC (Polymer Dispersed Liquid Crystal) technology, allows you to change the transparency, while offering a very high degree of thermal and acoustic insulation.

Formula 1 engine – For what Maserati MC20 Silo Driving pleasure remains unchanged compared to the MC20. Net proper stiffening changes due to the lack of a roof, in fact, a carbon-fiber monocoque identical to that of the coupe version, from which the Spider also inherits advanced aerodynamic solutions and, of course, Neptune engine 3.0 V6 Bi-Turbo from 630 hp (here details on how to make it). Last October, as part of a “No Smog Mobility” review, this engine was awarded the Green Prix for “Made in Italy” the attention of enthusiasts and professionals to its advanced pre-combustion system with dual spark plugs, technology typically used in Formula 1 engines.

From the sky to the sea – In addition to Aquamarine from the launch edition, the Maserati MC20 Silo It will be available in five shades of the MC20 palette – Audace White, Genio Yellow, Vincente Red, Infinite Blue – to which the new Incognito Gray has been added. Unprecedented design, the new MMXX Multispoke alloy wheels (2020, in Roman numbering system) with Diamond Finish and Double X shape are now also available on the Coupe version. Playing with colors and fabrics, a flair for cars and fashion has led to a collaboration with North Sails, a well-known American company that produces sailing boat gear and apparel inspired by life at sea.

Inside what you need and nothing more – cockpit from Maserati MC20 Silo It’s simple and elegant, covered in Alcantara and carbon fiber panels and surfaces. The same materials are used in the trim of the three-spoke steering wheel (from now on it will be the same on the MC20), with the new blue ignition button appearing just below the left button. On the tunnel between the seats, large and enclosed, there is a support surface for a smartphone with wireless charging function and a handle with which to choose from five different driving mode: wet (ideal in conditions of poor grip, such as snow or heavy rain); GT (standard); sports (the house recommends getting the most out of the track); Corsa (the intervention limit for electronic driving aids has been significantly raised); ESC off (suitable only for very experienced drivers, because here it is really in the driver’s hand).

Even safer – the new Maserati MC20 Silo Equipped with several active safety systems. Standard, in addition to the parking sensors with a rearview camera and those for a blind spot, already on the MC20, there are automatic emergency braking, traffic sign recognition and a new 360-degree camera. within my choicea true gem The high-quality audio system created by Sonus faber: already winner of the EISA Award for Best Car Hi-Fi System, has been modified in the acoustics and in the installation areas of the 12 speakers, with the aim of returning maximum power and sound clarity even with the roof open.
