Maserati continues to celebrate its rich racing heritage with the presentation of two special editions of the MC20: the MC20 Icona and the MC20 Leggenda<\/strong>.

Remember, in 2004, after 37 years of absence, Maserati makes a stunning return to competition with the MC12<\/strong>. This supercar, initially launched as a road-going version, quickly made its mark on the tracks of GT championships. It also left an indelible mark with 27 victories in FIA GT championships, three triumphs in the Spa 24 Hours, and multiple FIA GT1 world championship titles. Designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro and with a Ferrari-derived V12 engine, the MC12 Stradale remains the fastest production car ever produced by Maserati, reaching a top speed of 330 km\/h and accelerating from 0 to 100 km\/h in 3.8 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MC12 was designed to become a benchmark, and an inspiration for the new Maserati MC20 supercar. Introduced in 2020, the MC20 embodies Maserati's supercar revival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MC20 Icona, limited to just 20 units<\/strong>is distinguished by a special Bianco Audace Matte and Blu Stradale livery. This color combination recalls the 2004 MC12 Stradale, itself inspired by the Maserati Trofeo Light and the legendary Maserati Birdcage Type 61 of the 1960s. The MC20 Icona incorporates exclusive elements of the Fuoriserie personalization program, such as refined details and a Maserati Fuoriserie logo in Bianco Audace. The chrome wheels feature silver hubcaps and blue brake calipers, adding a touch of elegance and sportiness. The carbon-fiber engine hood and auto-dimming mirrors complete the distinctive look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
