Maserati MC20 Is The Ideal Partner For The MC12 Supercar

Maserati MC20 Coupe was revealed in 2020 as the company's new supercar and the successor to the 2004 Ferrari Enzo-based Maserati MC12, but we hadn't seen the pair together until now. Maserati's MC20 accompanied the MC12 and other gorgeous masterpieces at the International Concours of Elegance in St. Moritz, Switzerland, last week.

The MC12, which was built between 2004 and 2005, is the most sensual Maserati ever created, due to its long tail, immense width, low height, and aero elements inspired by motorsports. Nonetheless, Maserati MC20 retains its attractiveness, with its smaller mid-engined dimensions accentuated by the duo-tone paint and three-spoke wheels.

Although the mid-engined, rear-wheel-drive supercars share the MC prefix on their names and have similar power outputs, they are different in every other way. The MC12 is equipped with a naturally aspirated 6.0-liter V12 engine from Ferrari that produces 621 hp (463 kW/630 PS) and 652 Nm (481 lb-ft) of torque, which is sent to the back wheel via a six-speed sequential transmission. This enables for a 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) acceleration time of 3.8 seconds and a max speed of 330 km/h (205 mph).

Despite having half the cylinders, the current MC20 is equipped with a Maserati-developed twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 that produces 621 hp (463 kW / 630 PS) but a more hefty 730 Nm (538 lb-ft) of torque. A quicker eight-speed dual-clutch gearbox sends power to the back wheels, enabling a 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) sprint time of 2.9 seconds. Maserati MC20's max speed of 325 km/h (202 mph) is only 5 km/h (3 mph) slower than the MC12.

Maserati also took several desirable treasures to the event, including the beautiful A6GCS-53 Berlinetta Pininfarina, the Ghibli SS Coupe, the 4CL and 200S race cars, and the 3500 GT Vignale Coupe.
