Maserati updates the Grecale, GranTurismo and GranCabrio in India — and brings the 640hp GT2 Stradale along for the ride
Maserati has launched the facelifted Grecale, GranTurismo and GranCabrio in India from Rs 1.14 crore to Rs 3.30 crore, and shown the 640hp GT2 Stradale for the first time in the country.
By Auto Grid Editorial
Maserati India used one event on 30 October 2026 to refresh three different parts of its line-up at once: the Grecale SUV, the GranTurismo coupe and the GranCabrio convertible all get their first comprehensive update since the second-generation cars arrived, and the Italian marque used the same occasion to give the 640hp GT2 Stradale its first public showing in the country.
What happened
The updated Grecale, GranTurismo and GranCabrio were first revealed globally in June 2026; India gets them a little over four months later, largely unchanged from the international cars but priced and configured for the domestic market. Maserati's own India site lists five Grecale variants: the entry mild-hybrid Grecale at Rs 1.14 crore, Modena at Rs 1.29 crore, the newly added Modena V6 at Rs 1.39 crore, the range-topping petrol Trofeo at Rs 2 crore, and the all-electric Folgore at Rs 1.90 crore (all ex-showroom, before a free trade agreement duty adjustment). The Modena V6 is the headline mechanical addition — a 390hp, 3-litre V6 derived from Maserati's Nettuno engine family, slotted between the four-cylinder Modena and the range-topping Trofeo.
Visually, all three updated cars adopt a reworked front end that Maserati describes as inspired by the MC Pura supercar's "shark-nose" design, along with a new octagonal steering wheel and a redesigned digital clock on the dashboard. The GranTurismo and GranCabrio — Maserati's two-door grand tourers — get a more aggressive front fascia of their own, and in their range-topping Trofeo trim, the 3-litre twin-turbo Nettuno V6 now makes up to 590hp. The electric Folgore versions of both cars pick up an 80km increase in claimed WLTP range, taking the figure past 540km. Pricing for the GranTurismo runs from Rs 2.62 crore (490 trim) to Rs 2.80 crore (Trofeo) to Rs 3.14 crore (Folgore); the convertible GranCabrio costs roughly Rs 29–30 lakh more across the same three trims, topping out at Rs 3.30 crore for the Folgore.
Alongside the updated road-going range, Maserati gave the GT2 Stradale its India debut. This is the homologated, road-legal version of Maserati's GT2 customer racing car, built in Modena and powered by a 3-litre twin-turbocharged Nettuno V6 producing 640hp, sent to the rear wheels only. It was shown rather than launched — Maserati has not announced an India price, variant line-up or on-sale date for it, so for now it remains a statement of intent rather than something a customer can order.
What it means for an Indian buyer
For anyone already cross-shopping one of these three nameplates, the practical change is incremental rather than dramatic: broadly the same cars, with a sharper face, a new mid-range V6 option on the Grecale, more power at the top of the GranTurismo and GranCabrio range, and a bit more range on the electric Folgore variants. None of this is cheap to add — list prices for the outgoing Grecale ran from roughly Rs 1.14 crore to Rs 2 crore, and the updated range holds in almost exactly that band, so this is a like-for-like refresh rather than a price hike dressed up as new news.
The more useful piece of information for a serious buyer is the "pre-FTA" caveat attached to the GranTurismo and GranCabrio pricing. India has been easing import duty on a limited quota of fully-built luxury and electric cars under schemes tied to trade negotiations, and Maserati flagging its sticker prices as provisional ahead of such an adjustment is worth asking your dealer about directly — a formal FTA-linked price cut, if and when it lands, could move the needle by a meaningful amount on a car in this bracket. Buyers choosing between the Grecale Modena V6 and the Trofeo should also note that the V6 is a genuinely different engine from the four-cylinder Modena below it, not just a power bump, so a test drive of both is worth the effort before deciding.
The GT2 Stradale, for now, is a car to watch rather than to book. Maserati typically brings its most extreme road cars to India in very limited numbers once european and Middle Eastern allocations are settled, so anyone seriously interested should register interest with a dealer now rather than wait for an official price announcement.
The Auto Grid angle
A car in the crore-plus bracket is, if anything, a stronger case for paint protection than a mass-market one: the Grecale's long front overhang and the GranTurismo and GranCabrio's low nose are exactly the panels that catch a steep mall ramp or an unmarked speed breaker, and a respray on an Italian metallic or matte finish is neither quick nor cheap to get right. These cars also carry more front and side sensors than most — parking radars, cameras and, on the Grecale, full ADAS — tucked into the bumper and mirror housings, so a chip or scratch in exactly the wrong spot can mean a recalibration bill on top of a paint job. Fitting PPF to the bonnet, front bumper and mirror caps in the first week of ownership protects both the finish and the sensors sitting just beneath it.
What's next
Maserati has not given a timeline for India pricing or availability of the GT2 Stradale, and the FTA-linked adjustment flagged against the GranTurismo and GranCabrio's current prices has no confirmed date either — we'll update this story, and the brand's model pages, the moment either firms up.

Questions on this story
The facelifted Grecale starts at Rs 1.14 crore (ex-showroom) for the entry mild-hybrid petrol and rises to Rs 1.29 crore (Modena), Rs 1.39 crore (Modena V6), Rs 2 crore (Trofeo) and Rs 1.90 crore for the all-electric Folgore — all before a free trade agreement duty adjustment, per Maserati's own India price list.
All three get a revised front end inspired by the MC Pura supercar's 'shark-nose' design, cabin updates and powertrain changes. The Grecale gains a new 390hp Modena V6 derived from the Nettuno engine; the GranTurismo and GranCabrio Trofeo versions now make up to 590hp, and their Folgore electric versions get an 80km bump in claimed WLTP range, to over 540km.
Not yet. The GT2 Stradale — a 640hp, 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 road car based on Maserati's GT2 race car — made its India debut alongside the updated range as a display model. Maserati has not announced India pricing, a sale date or a launch timeline for it.
If anything, more so. At this price point, resale value, paint-matching cost and the owner's own tolerance for a scuffed bumper are all higher stakes than on a mass-market car — and Maserati's long, low front overhang on the Grecale and GranTurismo/GranCabrio is exactly the panel that takes the first hit from a steep driveway or a speed breaker misjudged at low speed.
