Maserati introduced the MC20 supercar in India at Rs 3.69 crore (ex-showroom). The mid-engine supercar was supposed to arrive in India in 2022. However, the action got delayed for unknown reasons, and now the first unit of the model has finally landed on our shores. It is a successor to the MC12 supercar from 2004 and the firm's first car in almost 20 years to have an in-house-developed engine. Design-wise, it boasts classic Maserati elements and a straightforward appearance. The supercar has a low-slung grille, as well as, huge intakes on the back fenders. It sports a rear spoiler, which aids in downforce generation. According to the market reports, the first Maserati MC20 for the Indian market has recently arrived at a Mumbai dealership. Let's have a quick glance at the specs of this mid-engine supercar.
