aserati has just unveiled its new MC20, bringing a new flagship supercar to the firm’s range of cars. Needless to say, it’s jam-packed with features – as well as a whole host of performance innovations – so there’s an awful lot to talk about. We’ve delved under the skin to find out the key things you need to know about Maserati’s latest supercar.
It’s got an extremely powerful engine As you’d expect from a highflying supercar, the MC20 uses an extremely powerful engine. It’s a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 that produces 621bhp and 730Nm of torque. As a result, 0-60mph should take around 2.7 seconds, while flat out the MC20 should do more than 200mph.

There’s likely to be a convertible version on the way Although Maserati has focused the initial launch of the MC20 on a hard-top version, there’s likely to be a soft-top variant on the horizon soon. That’s because its construction allows for the top to be lopped off with little effect on the car as a whole.
And an electrified version should be on the cards, too That same platform that has been geared towards a drop-top future also means that the MC20 will likely incorporate an electrified powertrain in the future. There’s little information about what type of engine or electric motor will power it, but it’s likely to be a pretty potent combination.
