I prossimi modelli Maserati

[Angus85]

Sento nell'aria un odore di "Piano Prodotti" di Maserati per i prossimi anni, presto in arrivo.

[libbio]

Per assurdo: nelle situazioni emergenziali noi italiani siamo maestri nel trovare soluzioni ingegnose per poi perderci nuovamente, inesorabilmente e stupidamente, nella normale amministrazione delle cose. Questo vale per terremoti, incidenti ...e forse anche per Brand di auto. 

Vuoi vedere che da queste macerie nasceranno prodotti WOW sotto ogni punto di vista? Mi piace pensarla così.

Stellantis has written off €1.5 billion (£1.2bn) of investment in Maserati, leaving some future models in doubt.

 

The decision from Stellantis comes amid slower than expected EV demand in the luxury segment as well as a collapse in overall demand at the top end of the Chinese market for global brands.

New Maserati models in limbo after £1.2 billion investment written off

Launch of MC20 Folgore and future EVs in doubt after Italian firm suffers sales slump in 2024

 

 

The decision from Stellantis – which also owns brands such as Vauxhall, Fiat and Jeep – comes amid slower than expected EV demand in the luxury segment as well as a collapse in overall demand at the top end of the Chinese market for global brands. Overall, Stellantis's profits fell by 70% in 2024, while Maserati's sales more than halved from 26,600 units in 2023 to 11,300 last year.

Stellantis referenced “the cancellation of certain projects prior to launch” under the figures in financial documents published on 26 February, which Autocar understands is partly in reference to the axing of the Folgore electric version of the MC20supercar, which was due to be launched early this year. 

The cancellation has previously been referenced by Italian trade union FIM CISL. Autocar has contacted Maserati for further information.

The pulling of investment also brings into question the electric replacements for the Quattroporte saloon due in 2028 and Levantelarge SUV in 2027. The electric Quattroporte had already been delayed from its planned 2025 launch. The combustion-engine versions of both models were axed this year.

Stellantis chief financial officer Doug Ostermann told analysts on an earnings call that the company had to review Maserati’s model launch cadence, particularly in respect to EVs. “We have to recognise the dynamics in that business, particularly in the Chinese market, and our expectations in terms of how quickly that luxury market would transition to electrification,” he said.

Maserati’s revival under Stellantis ownership was heavily underpinned by the shift to electric with a plan to phase out all combustion-engine models by 2030. The brand has already launched ‘Folgore’ electric versions of the Grecale mid-size SUV, Granturismo coupé and open-topped Grancabrio.

Overall Maserati shipments more than halved in 2024 to 11,300. The brand lost €260 million (£215m) in 2024 after recording profits of €141 million (£117m) in 2023.

Maserati’s problems echo those of the wider top-end sector, where even Porsche suffered a poor 2024 after being hit by both a decline in Chinese demand and slow sales of its Taycan electric car.

Premium brands are heavily reviewing their global EV strategy by pivoting back more towards combustion engines after demand levels proved lower than expected. Chinese buyers are favouring local EV brands while the US market for electric cars is now a complete unknown after EV-sceptic Donald Trump was re-elected president.

Maserati’s problems are a big concern to the local Italian unions, which have long been pressuring Stellantis to fulfil promises to flesh out the brand’s range and increase production.

FIM urged Stellantis to clarify Maserati’s future at a planned meeting on 11 March after 2024 production fell 79%. “Maserati represents one of the most critical situations. Despite the quality and high-performance models, the brand suffers from errors and carelessness in terms of marketing,” FIM general secretary Ferdinando Uliano said in an interview with the union’s in-house magazine published on 26 February. “We can no longer waste time.”

I'd say the "pulling of investment" is about stopped Quattroporte (2025) and Levante on Giorgio Evo, which is an expensive dead end. They mentioned upcoming Maseratis on STLA large in the press release for the year 2024 results:

Next-gen Levante + Quattroporte might not be BEV-only

What we don’t have is a plug-in hybrid because the company direction was very clear – we’ll just go full-electric, rather than have that interim period. Future development could be open – particularly with Levante and Quattroporte.
