Maserati Grecale (2022 – present) | Expert Rating

Model reviewed: Grecale Trofeo
Score: 7 / 10
“The top-spec Grecale Trofeo is good in some areas, but needs to be better in others. Our brief early drive showed that while there’s plenty of personality, it could be more polished. It’s the firm ride that sticks out in particular. However, the performance and theatre are also particularly noteworthy for all the right reasons, while what feels like a sharp chassis bodes well.”

“Maserati finally arrives in the mid-size premium SUV class with the stylish Grecale but matching the Porsche Macan for substance isn’t easy.”

“It’s certainly a large chunk of change for a car that’s dynamically still a few steps behind that continued class benchmark, the Macan. It’s frustrating, because with a little more development and touch more fine-tuning, the Maserati could be a contender.”

“Despite its obvious flaws, the Grecale isn’t without appeal, and for many the romance of the brand’s history will be a serious tug on the heart strings; plus it’s extremely practical and, when you’re in the mood, that engine can lift spirits and deliver a truly crushing turn of speed.”

“It’s a spacious thing with a decent boot and generous rear seat space when compared to more compact rivals such as the Macan, making it a surprisingly sensible choice in some regards.”

“Though the proof will be in the pudding when we’re able to try the Grecale on UK roads, its combination of spaciousness, quality and sportiness is one that will likely be appreciated by many in this class.”

“Sharp bumps result in crashes and thuds, even on models with air suspension. It’s a shame, because the interior feels suitably premium.”

“The Maserati Grecale will make for an interesting alternative choice if you’re after a fast, sporty family SUV. And if you like to be a bit different, there’s plenty to be impressed with here.”

“Regular versions of the Grecale have the potential to outclass every other premium SUV on sale today – and our stint behind the wheel of the Trofeo model backs up company’s claims about the car’s performance for the rest of the model range are accurate.”

“The Grecale is an accomplished premium SUV that’s short on real weaknesses. Some of the plastics are a bit suspect and it’s hardly going to be cheap, but if you’re hooked on the Maserati badge, you won’t have too much to complain about. But badge aside, the Grecale doesn’t have any major strengths to make it stand out alongside its accomplished rivals.”

“Maserati’s take on the ubiquitous medium-sized SUV hits plenty of targets, yet feels like a car designed to do just that.”
