When Maserati a announced the MCXtremathe automotive world held its breath. This non-road-approved racing car promised to be the most powerful Maserati ever produced by the marque au Trident (if we set aside the Corsican version of the MC12 and its 755 hp). And today, we finally get to see it, and more importantly to hear it, in action on the Misano circuit, thanks to a 13-minute video that captures the essence of this racing beast.
The MCXtrema is much more than just a car; it's an extreme vision of a "toy" for gentlemen drivers who want to make their machine roar on the track. Weighing in at around 1250 kg and powered by a Nettuno 3.0L V6 engine boosted from 630 to 730 hp, the MCXtrema pushes the limits of performance. Its extreme aerodynamic design, while sharing the same size as the MC20, is specifically optimized for speed and handling on the racetrack.
Like Ferrari with its XX program and Lamborghini with the Essenza SCV12, Maserati offers its most demanding customers a pure, undiluted racing experience. The MCXtrema isn't just a car, it's a ticket into the exclusive world of track programs, where luxury meets raw performance. With a price tag of around €900,000 excluding VAT, according to a source close to the car, it is clearly positioned as an object of desire for thrill-seekers and lovers of exclusive luxury.
The video posted online not only shows the MCXtrema in action on the Misano circuit, but also gives you an idea of how it works.Enjoy the symphony of its unmuffled Nettuno V6 engine, a melody that will delight car enthusiasts. The track laps not only reveal the car's agility and power, but also highlight the incredible work carried out by Maserati's engineers.
It's a formidable machine, but yes, it's the second most powerful, because the MC12 Corse is still out front.
It would be nice to run the 2 models together like Ferrari does with the XX.
