Maserati Grecale Folgore Model Year 2026
With the Model Year 2026, Maserati has evolved one of the flagship versions of its SUV: Grecale Folgore boasts a wealth of unprecedented technology to define a new standard in high-performance electrification; it launches the AWD-Disconnect system and improves autonomy.
The entire Trident SUV range – the perfect balance between performance and driving pleasure – has never been so broad, to respond to all the requirements of the brand’s customers.
Grecale Folgore Model Year 2026
The main new technical feature is the unprecedented all-wheel drive disconnection system. When AWD is not required, the vehicle transfers traction only to the rear axle, with a significant reduction in energy consumption and a consequent increase in autonomy (up to 580 km), confirming itself as a benchmark in terms of excellence in its segment. The transition between all- and rear-wheel drive takes place in 500 milliseconds, by physically disengaging the front axle shafts from the hubs. This solution, unlike other systems on the market that limit disconnection to the engine or differential level, allows for true and complete isolation of the transmission, thus maximising energy savings. The entire process is managed by an autonomous control strategy that requires no interaction from the driver.
Smart traction management uses a network of sensors and advanced algorithms, processing thousands of parameters per second. These include torque demand, brake temperature, road gradient, instantaneous speed and acceleration, selected driving mode, outside temperature and activation of vehicle dynamic control systems, such as ABS, ESC, ASR and torque vectoring applied to braking. This predictive analysis enables drivers to choose the most efficient configuration at any time without sacrificing traction and active safety.
The Model Year 2026 also confirms technologies already appreciated by Grecale Folgore customers. The automatic battery pre-conditioning system intervenes when an ultra-fast charging station is set as a destination via the navigation system using the EV Routing function – i.e. the smart navigation function for electric vehicles to plan routes and charging stops. In this case, the vehicle proactively adjusts the temperature of the battery, bringing it into the ideal range for the high-power charging process and significantly reducing dwell times.
For everyday comfort, the remote passenger compartment climate control function has been retained. It can be used to stabilise the in-car temperature via the Maserati Connect app even when the vehicle is switched off, offering occupants a welcoming environment from the moment they get into the vehicle.
EV Routing remains a pillar of the electric travel experience: the system calculates the route taking into account charge level, driving style and elevation profile, automatically integrating any charging stops and minimising overall travel time. To support this function, Maserati has added Dynamic Range Mapping, providing a visual representation of the maximum distance achievable on a map based on battery status, with constant updates according to driving conditions. This tool provides the driver with an accurate, real-time prediction of remaining range, eliminating any uncertainty in travel planning.
