Maserati reveals first images of the MC20 convertible prototype

Maserati has revealed the first pictures of an early prototype of the new MC20 convertible leaving the gates of the historic Modena plant.

Sporting a cloud-based camouflage fitting for a convertible, this Maserati MC20 will sport a body made from carbon fibre and composite materials just like the coupe.

The MC20 coupe utilises a Maserati-developed Nettuno twin-turbocharged V6 engine, which produces 621bhp and a peak torque of 730Nm. The engine utilises numerous innovations borrowed from Formula One, including the use of a combustion pre-chamber and laterally-mounted sparkplugs. A twin injection system (both direct and indirect) also aids in lowering emissions and improving fuel economy.
