Maserati MCPura Cielo

Maserati MCPura Cielo is the open-top expression of the Modena-built MCPura super sports car, combining the Nettuno V6 and carbon-fibre monocoque with a 12-second retractable smart-glass roof.

The cockpit is trimmed extensively in Alcantara, with a low driving position, 10.25-inch digital cluster and driver-focused dashboard built around the carbon-fibre structure.

A minimalist centre tunnel houses the mechanical drive-mode selector and essential controls, while the 10.25-inch touchscreen manages connected and roof functions.

The fully digital 10.25-inch TFT cluster shows driving, navigation and performance information without forcing the driver to refocus far from the road.

Laser-etched Alcantara sports seats provide firm lateral support, strong grip and lower weight than conventional leather trim.

The two-seat cabin is intimate but designed for grand touring, offering useful shoulder room and an open-air experience without sacrificing the MCPura’s core ergonomics.

The flat-top Alcantara steering wheel is inspired by the GT2, with integrated start and launch-control buttons plus large column-mounted paddle shifters.

Compact cabin compartments handle personal items, while separate front and rear luggage areas provide touring storage outside the passenger cell.

Discreet cup holders add basic everyday usability without cluttering the minimalist centre tunnel.

USB connectivity and device charging support smartphones, while Maserati Connect keeps vehicle information accessible through the companion app.

Carbon fibre, Alcantara, precise metal controls and Fuoriserie personalisation give the Cielo a handcrafted flagship finish.

A 50-litre front compartment and 100-litre rear boot provide 150 litres of combined luggage capacity despite the mid-engine layout and folding roof.

The MCPura Cielo measures 4,667 mm long, 1,965 mm wide without mirrors and 1,214 mm tall, with a 2,700 mm wheelbase and 11.8-metre turning circle.

Its revised shark-nose front uses GT2 Stradale-inspired bumper surfacing, optimised air intakes and a low Trident grille to balance cooling with aerodynamic efficiency.

The rear combines a new lower fascia, large diffuser, discreet spoiler and twin exhaust outlets, with an optional oversized spoiler for a more track-focused appearance.

Compact LED headlamps sit high on the clean front bodywork, preserving the MCPura Cielo’s aerodynamic form and distinctive night signature.

Slim LED tail lamps frame the rear deck and diffuser, keeping the lighting graphic clean while emphasising the car’s width.

Aerodynamic side mirrors provide the necessary view past the wide rear haunches while minimising airflow disturbance at speed.

High-performance braking hardware delivers a stopping distance of under 33 metres from 100 km/h, with electronic brake control supporting road and track use.

The MCPura Cielo uses 20-inch wheels with 245/35 front and 305/30 rear tyres, providing the staggered footprint needed for its rear-drive performance.

ABS, electronic stability control, traction management and selectable suspension settings work together to manage the Cielo’s 630 CV output.

The Dallara-developed carbon-fibre monocoque is specifically reinforced for convertible torsional rigidity, supported by airbags and modern restraint systems.

Five modes — WET, GT, SPORT, CORSA and ESC Off — change throttle, gearbox, exhaust, suspension and traction-control behaviour.

Maserati Intelligent Assistant runs on Android Automotive through a 10.25-inch HD touchscreen, adding connected navigation, performance pages and Maserati Connect.

Parking assistance, camera support and connected emergency services improve everyday usability, while the drive modes progressively adjust electronic intervention.

A six-speaker premium system is standard, while the optional 12-speaker, 695-watt Sonus faber system provides the flagship audio upgrade.

The 3.0-litre twin-turbo Nettuno V6 produces 630 CV and 720 Nm, using Maserati’s Formula 1-derived pre-chamber combustion technology.

An eight-speed dual-clutch transmission delivers rapid paddle-controlled shifts while retaining a smoother calibration in GT mode.

Power is sent to the rear wheels, with a 39.5:60.5 front-to-rear weight distribution supporting mid-engine agility.

The MCPura Cielo accelerates from 0-100 km/h in under 2.9 seconds and reaches more than 320 km/h.

Official combined-cycle consumption is 11.7 litres per 100 km, with CO2 emissions of 265 g/km for the EU specification.

The electrochromic PDLC glass roof changes from opaque to transparent in one second and opens or closes in 12 seconds, including operation at speeds up to 50 km/h.

Focused climate outlets provide rapid cooling to both occupants, an important feature for roof-down use in warm conditions.

Adaptive suspension combines a compliant GT setting with firmer SPORT and CORSA calibrations, and the suspension button can soften the dampers independently.

With the roof raised, smart-glass thermal insulation and careful sealing improve refinement; roof-down, the cabin deliberately exposes occupants to the Nettuno exhaust note.

The Maserati MCPura Cielo preserves the coupé’s 630 CV performance and carbon-fibre engineering while adding a class-leading 12-second electrochromic glass roof.
