The Maserati MC20 features a mid-engine layout with a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 powering the rear wheels.

The all-new Nettuno engine develops 630bhp and 730Nm of peak torque and pairs with an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic.

The Maserati MC20 can sprint from 0 to 100kmph in under 2.9s and will hit a top speed in excess of 325kmph.

The MC20 is Maserati's most crucial launch in years as it hopes to usher in a new era of success recreating its glorious past. The Maserati MC20, as the company puts it, is a road car infused with racing DNA that spearheads the Italian car maker's ambitious plans of introducing 10 new extensively revised models by 2023.
