Maserati has officially ended production of the MC20, introducing its successor with a subtle facelift and a new name—MCPura. While the changes are evolutionary, the core spirit of Maserati’s mid-engined supercar remains firmly intact.
Same Carbon-Fibre Heart, Same Nettuno Power
Underneath the refreshed body, the MCPura is fundamentally unchanged. It keeps the same carbon-fibre chassis and the revered 3.0-litre twin-turbo Nettuno V6 engine, which continues to deliver an exhilarating 621 bhp and 538 lb-ft of torque.
Sharper Exterior With Subtle Tweaks
Visually, the MCPura features a redesigned front bumper that gives the car a more pronounced shark-nose appearance.
The rear bumper has also been subtly reshaped, and airflow improvements have been made beneath the car—all contributing to enhanced aerodynamics without compromising the MC20’s signature styling.
Upgraded Interior With New Tech
Inside, Maserati has updated the cabin with a new, flat-topped steering wheel and the latest version of its MST infotainment system. The system includes GT2 Stradale-inspired displays, and buyers of the coupe can opt for a carbon-fibre steering wheel with integrated shift lights. A large GT2-style rear wing is also now available as an option.
Striking New Paint Finishes
Maserati has introduced two new colours to mark the MCPura’s arrival. The coupe and Cielo convertible versions are available in “AI Aqua Rainbow,” a shimmering light blue, while a bold “Devil Orange” injects further vibrancy into the lineup.
A Thoughtful Evolution, Not a Revolution
The MCPura may not be radically different, but it refines and modernizes what the MC20 already excelled at. It’s a deliberate move by Maserati to update its flagship without losing the essence that made the MC20 beloved by enthusiasts.
