Maserati Grecale as cool as they come
January 26, 2022
Testing continues on the Maserati Grecale prototypes in the cold of the Swedish glades where they have delivered their maximum power in extreme conditions and on very low grip surfaces.
Not even snow and ice can hinder the Grecale’s energy. During the mission the prototypes were tested to fine-tune their start-up and driveability at extreme temperatures.
There were checks on the vehicle dynamics on mixed surfaces of tarmac, snow and ice, and to maintain in-car comfort in all weather conditions, varying from a few degrees above zero to as low as -30°C in Lapland.
Tests were also carried out to fine-tune the car’s traction, understeer and oversteer in different drive modes and with varying sizes and types of wheels.
Even in extreme conditions, the Grecale excelled on low grip handling tracks, completing high-performance laps on various circuits, from steering pads to more demanding routes featuring corners, slopes, long straights and drops, on snowy or icy surfaces.
