Maserati Unveils MCPURA Supercar at Goodwood
Maseratihas revealed the MCPURA, its latest high-performance masterpiece, at the 2025Goodwood Festival of Speed. Available in both coupé and convertible (Cielo) variants, the MCPURA builds on the foundation of theMC20with enhanced styling, craftsmanship and a renewed focus on purity of performance. At its heart lies the 621 hp twin-turbo V6 Nettuno engine — developed in-house and paired with a lightweight carbon-fibre monocoque — resulting in a power-to-weight ratio of 5 lb/hp.
Distinguishing features include butterfly doors and, on the Cielo model, a PDLC glass roof that shifts from opaque to transparent in one second. Designed with input from Maserati's Officine Fuoriserie customisation division, the debut car appeared in Ai Aqua Rainbow, a dynamic blue finish that shimmers like a prism in motion. Inside, laser-etched Alcantara seats and magenta-accented details reflect a futuristic yet handcrafted Italian spirit.
With over 30 body color options, including new shades like Devil Orange and Verde Royale, the MCPURA offers extensive personalisation. Maserati calls this model 'E = MCPURA,' a nod to its philosophy of transforming energy into refined performance. Built entirely in Modena, Italy, the MCPURA reaffirms the Trident's commitment to innovation, motorsport heritage and design-led luxury. Deliveries are set to begin later this year, with production continuing at Maserati's historic Viale Ciro Menotti plant.

Maserati's New Supercar - Do You Prefer the Coupe or Convertible?
While many brands brought familiar faces to this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed, Maserati stood out with a global debut. The Italian carmaker unveiled both the coupe and Cielo convertible versions of its MC20 successor, the MCPura. It was one of the few all-new reveals at the event, and it drew plenty of attention. Meanwhile, McLaren's hypercar was tucked away from the crowds. Maserati plays on Einstein's iconic formula, E = MCPURA, with "MC" standing for Maserati Corse and "Pura" meaning "pure" in Italian. PR theatrics aside, the updates are subtle but intentional. The MCPura sticks with the same 3.0-liter twin-turbo Nettuno V6 as the MC20, but thanks to refined materials and increased carbon fiber use, it now has a dry weight of just 3,043 lbs. That is about 300 lbs less than before. On display at Goodwood were both coupe and Cielo convertible versions, finished in a stunning Ai Aqua Rainbow color. The paint shimmered in the sun like a prism, matte on the coupe and glossy on the Cielo. The new magenta Trident badges with blue mica accents add flair, and the redesigned wheels even more. While the MC20 leaned more luxurious, the MCPura's cabin is sportier. It swaps leather for Alcantara, and the laser-etched Trident logos on the "Alcantara Ice" seats make them a clear focal point. A slightly revised steering wheel rounds out the changes inside. The highlight feature is the topless Cielo's new retractable roof. Made from polymer-dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) glass, it can switch from clear to opaque in an instant. Maserati says it's the first roof of its kind in this segment. The MCPura also benefits from a stiffer carbon-fiber monocoque and aerodynamic changes inspired by the MC20 GT2, including a revised front end for better downforce. The Nettuno V6 still delivers 621 hp, 538 lb-ft of torque, and a redline of 8,000 rpm. As before, the car is built entirely in Modena. The MCPura represents Maserati's commitment to Italian craftsmanship and exclusivity. The Maserati Fuoriserie program offers over 30 color choices, including Devil Orange, Verde Royale, and Night Interaction, letting owners build something truly personal. The MCPura may not be a new model built from the ground up, but it is a sharper and lighter recipe of what already worked. At Goodwood, it proved Maserati can evolve the sports car without falling victim to electricification. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
