If you have a passion for both Maserati and racing, the Maserati GT2 Stradale is undeniably the perfect choice for you.
Engine
Revealed during the 2024 Monterey Car Week at The Quail, the GT2 Stradale is the road-going variant of the race car based on the MC20.
Beneath the hood lies a 3.0-liter twin-turbo "Nettuno" V6 engine, paired with a dual-clutch automatic transmission, producing 640 horsepower. Not only does it exceed a top speed of 201 miles per hour, but it also accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in less than 2.8 seconds.
To achieve the legendary performance of the GT2 Stradale, downforce and aerodynamics play crucial roles. A carbon fiber monocoque structure makes the Stradale 132 pounds lighter than its base model, the MC20.
Aerodynamic enhancements such as a louvered bonnet, active rear spoiler, and rear diffuser collectively generate over 500 kilograms or 1,000 pounds of downforce. Paired with its active suspension system, the GT2 Stradale maintains a firm grip on the road during high-speed cornering.
Colors and Safety
In addition to its powertrain, the vehicle offers a wide array of exterior color options, with three of these colors being special customizations available through Maserati's Fuoriserie program.
Moreover, the car is equipped with numerous safety and convenience features, such as lane enhancement systems, 360-degree cameras, blind-spot warnings, traffic sign recognition, and adaptive cruise control.
Upon entering the vehicle, one can see that the interior is also a blend of racing and comfort features. The carbon fiber racing seats are adorned with blue Alcantara. Blue accents are a consistent theme throughout the interior, as is the extensive use of carbon fiber.
Maserati continues its collaboration with Sonus Faber, providing an audio system for its GT2 Stradale. Only physical buttons present control volume, driving modes, and the drive/reverse selector.
Option Packages
The Maserati GT2 Stradale offers five optional packages worth noting:
The Interior and Exterior Carbon Fiber Package adds numerous carbon fiber accents including the dashboard cover, door sills, matte carbon fiber doors, and fender door thresholds, as well as a matte carbon fiber rear diffuser. The ADAS Package enhances the vehicle with a 360-degree camera and automatic emergency braking.
Furthermore, the vehicle features a Performance Package and a Performance Package Plus. The standard Performance Package includes Michelin semi-slick tires, an adjustable electronic LSD, race-grade carbon fiber ceramic brakes, GT2 Corsa Evo driving mode, special forged wheels, and carbon fiber slotted fender flaps.
The Performance Package Plus retains all the aforementioned features and additionally includes a harness bar, a fire extinguisher, and blue four-point safety belts.
Price
The price of the car has not yet been announced, but it is expected, according to other media reports, to fall between the MC20’s $242,995 MSRP and the GT2’s $522,000 price tag.
