MASERATI RETURNS TO MOTORSPORT

Maserati recently announced the first step in its motorsport strategy and will make its debut in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship in 2023.With motorsport in its genes, Maserati will be the first Italian brand to compete in Formula E.

The combination of Maserati’s unrivalled racing heritage and its innovative attitude towards electrification aligns perfectly with the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, the world’s first all-electric roadracing motorsport series.

Maserati’s commitment to electric mobility is powered by a lightning surge of new energy, now accelerating to run at top speed with Folgore, the full electric range. All new Maserati models will also be available in 100% electric solutions, including the Maserati Grecale, Maserati GranTurismo and GranCabrio and the Maserati MC20 super sportscar.

Maserati will debut on the grid from Season 9 with the new Gen3, the fastest, lightest, most powerful Formula E racing car ever. The Gen3 is the world’s most efficient racing car featuring a series of industry-leading design, production and technological innovations.

Maserati had its racing debut 96 years ago.The first racing car to bear the Trident logo on the bonnet was the Tipo 26, which debuted at the Targa Florio in 1926, winning first place in the class up to 1.5 L, with Alfieri Maserati at the wheel.

Thirty-one years later, Juan Manuel Fangio won the F1World Championship with Maserati in 1957. Maserati’s last appearance in racing was with the unprecedented MC12, which won 22 races and 14 Championship titles across Constructors’ Championships, Drivers’ Championships and Teams’ Championships in the FIA GT, from 2004 to 2010.

Racing has always been Maserati’s natural habitat. Even now, with its new era in Formula E, Maserati is starting from its roots as it builds its future.
