The new Maserati MC20 Cielo Spyder

Last week saw the world premiere of the Maserati MC20 Cielo; a new MC20 variant with an elegant yet very sporty design. Its character and personality stand out through the purity of its form and its refined aerodynamics ... Text: Fleur de Jong
Image: MaseratiInItalian, the word Cielo means "air," with it Maserati emphasizes the fact that the model is dedicated to driving pleasure and the great outdoors. A feature, which is unique for this segment and provides that unique sky feeling, is the innovative folding glass roof with an opening and closing speed of just 12 seconds. It can also be instantly transformed from clear to opaque at the touch of a button courtesy of Polymer-Dispersed Liquid Crystal (PDLC) technology. Developed at the Maserati Innovation Lab and produced at the historic Modena factory, the new spyder can't help but have some Italian temperament. The MC20 Cielo features the revolutionary V6 Nettuno engine that debuted in the MC20 Coupe. It produces 630 hp at 7,500 rpm and 730 Nm of torque from 3,000 rpm. The power-to-weight ratio is 210 hp/liter.

When a Coupe is transformed into a convertible, weight gain is usually a major challenge. Maserati has managed to limit this; the Cielo weighs only 65 kilograms more than the Coupe. In doing so, the brand retains the sporty DNA of the MC20. The pastel gray color, featuring aquamarine mica also provides sporty and vibrant looks.

360 degree camera

Maserati has also added a wide range of safety systems to the new Cielo. In addition to the parking sensors, rear-view camera and blind spot monitoring included in the MC20 since the MY22, the new variant introduces a 360-degree camera, autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, as well as traffic sign detection (TSI) which recognizes roadside road signs and adjusts the car's speed as a result.  

In the Cielo, everything remains functional, but the wow factoris not lost; the butterfly doors open like wings to the immensity of the sky. Designed to make it easier for the driver to get in and out, despite the low floor.
