A New Chapter for Maserati in India: Santo Ficili, Alfa Romeo CEO & Maserati CEO, Makes First Visit as New Line-Up and Navnit Group Partnership Are Unveiled

Mumbai, October 30, 2026: Maserati today marked a new chapter in India with the formal launch of Navnit Maserati in Mumbai, the introduction of the updated Grecale, GranTurismo and GranCabrio range, and the India debut of the GT2 Stradale. Held at Grand Hyatt Mumbai, the event was led by Santo Ficili, Alfa Romeo CEO & Maserati CEO, during his first visit to India, underscoring the brand’s commitment to its next phase of growth in the country.

Building on the partnership announced earlier this year, Santo Ficili and Sharad Kachalia, Chairman and Managing Director, Navnit Maserati, presented their shared vision for Maserati in Mumbai and Western India. The Navnit Maserati showroom at Trade Centre, BKC, will serve as the brand’s primary retail hub for the region, offering the complete Maserati portfolio, manufacturer-approved aftersales service and a dedicated Fuoriserie configuration area for bespoke personalisation.

Santo Ficili, Alfa Romeo CEO & Maserati CEO, said: "India represents one of the most important growth markets for Maserati, and our commitment to the country is stronger than ever. The celebration of this new partnership, together with the introduction of our updated Trident range, underlines our confidence in the Indian luxury segment and our ambition to offer clients an ownership experience that reflects the very best of Italian Granturismo."

The updated Trident range, first unveiled globally in June 2026, makes its India debut with refreshed design, enhanced performance and improved technology across Grecale, GranTurismo and GranCabrio. Key highlights include:

• New Grecale: Sharper front-end design aligned with the MCPURA, a new 390-hp Nettuno-derived V6 option, and improved range for the Folgore electric version.
• New GranTurismo and GranCabrio: Revised exterior styling with a more aggressive front end, up to 590 hp from the V6 Nettuno in Trofeo specification, and an 80 km increase in WLTP range for the Folgore to over 540 km.
• Enhanced cabin experience: New racing-inspired steering wheel, updated Maserati Digital Clock with octagonal bezel, redesigned PRND selector and improved digital interfaces across the range.
• Fuoriserie personalisation: Expanded colour and trim options, including new exterior colours and coordinated badges, with the GranCabrio's soft top now available for full Bespoke customisation.
• Maserati GT2 Stradale: The road-legal version of the GT2, which brought Maserati back to the track in covered-wheel championships, arrives in India for the first time and is on display alongside the new line-up.

Carrying the GT2's racing programme onto the road, the GT2 Stradale sends 640 hp from its Nettuno V6 to the rear wheels. Built in Modena, the GT2 Stradale gives Indian enthusiasts their first look at the most track-focused car in the Trident line-up. It sits at the top of the range alongside the MCPURA family, and its arrival shows Maserati's intent to bring its most driver-focused offering to the Indian market.

Maher Abdalla, Managing Director, Maserati MEA, India & Turkey, said: "Our strategy in India is focused on sustainable growth, selective network expansion and an elevated client experience. Opening our doors in Mumbai with Navnit Maserati gives us a stronger foundation to serve clients across Western India. From day one, Fuoriserie will be part of that experience, allowing clients to express their individuality through a personal choice of colours, materials and finishes. With our updated model range and Santo Ficili’s visit, this opening represents an important step in our long-term investment in India."

Sharad Kachalia, Chairman and Managing Director, Navnit Maserati, said: "We are honoured to represent Maserati in Mumbai and Western India at such a pivotal moment for the brand. With the arrival of the updated Trident range and the opening of this new facility, our focus is on delivering a world-class retail and aftersales experience that matches the character of the Trident. We are confident that Indian clients will respond strongly to this next chapter of Maserati's journey."

During his visit, Santo Ficili met key dealer partners, reviewed India market strategy, interacted with media and clients.
