Maserati have announced the first step in its motorsport strategy and will make its debut in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship in 2023.
\nWith motorsport in its genes and rooted in the spirit of pure competition, Maserati is the first Italian brand to compete in Formula E. The return to the track renews the racing spirit in Maserati\u2019s DNA.
\nThe combination of Maserati\u2019s unrivalled racing heritage – a brand intrinsically linked with high-performance, and its innovative attitude towards electrification \u2013 aligns perfectly with the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, the world\u2019s first all-electric road-racing motorsport series.
\nMaserati\u2019s 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\u00a0will also be available in 100% electric\u00a0solutions including Maserati Grecale, Maserati GranTurismo\u00a0and\u00a0GranCabrio and the\u00a0Maserati MC20 super\u00a0sportscar.
\nThe ABB FIA\u00a0Formula E World Championship\u00a0provides Maserati with a perfect platform to showcase the unprecedented brand racing heritage and Folgore in an environment where high performance and innovation powerfully co-exist.
\nMaserati 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\u2019s most efficient racing car featuring a series of industry- leading design, production and technological innovations.
\nDavide Grasso, Maserati CEO, commented: \u201cWe are very proud to be back where we belong as protagonists in the world of racing. We are powered by passion and innovative by nature. We have a long history of world-class excellence in competition and we are ready to drive performance in the future.\u201d Grasso continued: \u201cIn the race for more performance, luxury, and innovation, Folgore is irresistible and it is the purest expression of Maserati. That\u2019s why we decided to go back to racing in the FIA Formula E World Championship, meeting our customers in the city centers of the world, taking the Trident forward into the future\u201d.
\nJean-Marc Finot, Senior VP, STELLANTIS Motorsport, added: \u201cIt is a great pleasure for STELLANTIS Motorsport to play a part in getting Maserati back in the Race. Beyond this piece of history, Maserati Formula E will be our technological laboratory to accelerate the development of high-efficiency electrified powertrains and intelligent software for our road sports cars. Formula E is the perfect Championship for this purpose and we are very proud to be the first Italian brand to join in.\u201d
\nAlejandro Agag, Founder & Chairman, Formula E, said: \u201cWe are proud to welcome Maserati to their new home in world-class motorsport. The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship is the pinnacle of electric racing. It provides the perfect environment for the most dynamic and innovative high-performance car brands to showcase their technological capabilities alongside their sporting ambitions.\u201d
