One of the world’s leading publications for car enthusiasts, evo just gave the Maserati MC20 the much coveted Car of The Year 2022.
The Maserati MC20 bested some really tough competition to be chosen by the highly experienced road test judging panels of evo.
evo editor Stuart Gallagher shared, “In a year that delivered so many tantalising new performance cars from many established marques the Maserati MC20 was the cream that rose to the top of evo’s 2022 Car of the Year test.
“It’s a remarkable car that ignites a passion in the driver that Maserati is famed for. It oozes character, rewards the driver in everything it does and leaves you aching for another drive every time you step out of it. Throw in an exotic piece of Italian automotive design and you have the perfect recipe for both a brilliant driver’s car and eCoty champion.”
Fellow judge Steve Sutcliffe said, “It’s the car I’d most like to own of all the cars I’ve driven in the last 30 years.”
The Maserati MC20 was also dubbed as a ‘car person’s car’ delivering driving excitement and emotion, excellent handling at all speeds, and how it sets itself apart from the other supercars that were released this year.
Maserati North Europe General Manager Peter Charters reacted to the exciting news regarding the award, stating that “Everyone in the Maserati family is justifiably proud of this incredible accolade for the MC20. It’s a very special car, engineered and designed under our ‘Luxury with a purpose’ strategy.
“The MC20 is race-inspired and every detail heightens the connection between driver and car, in the driver’s seat nothing distracts from the sporty experience and it’s great that the evo judges felt this special connection”.
In both the Coupe and Cielo models of the MC20, Maserati equipped it with the revolutionary new Nettuno engine, which is a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 engine that delivers 630 hp. The latest powertrain creation of Maserati is the first engine to be equipped in a road car with the innovative pre-chamber combustion system with twin spark plugs, a technology learned from competing in Formula 1.
Typical of a Maserati, clients are given almost complete freedom with the numerous options, enabling them to create a truly bespoke and personalized car through the Fouriserie personalization options.
