Maserati has captured the enigmatic allure of the twilight with the unveiling of its first limited-edition iteration of the distinguished MC20 supercar. Aptly named MC20 Notte, evoking the mystique of the nocturnal hour, the vehicle is arrayed in an opulent black-on-black ensemble, sharpening its aesthetic into something sinuously captivating.
The MC20 Notte Edition: A Symphony in Shadow
Maserati’s MC20 Notte emerges as the fourth incarnation since the car’s grand debut in 2020, nestling itself alongside the original model, the breezy Cielo, and the racetrack-adapted MCXtrema. Immersed in “nero essenza,” a matte black that seems to drink in the light, the MC20 Notte boasts a sleek martiality. This arresting darkness is only interrupted by badges that now shimmer in a soft glow of matte white gold—a noble departure from the usual chrome.
A Wheel within a Wheel: Maserati’s Design Alchemy
No detail is too small for Maserati’s artisans—down to the 20-inch wheels, which carry the black and gold livery of the night, grounded by jet-black brake calipers.
A Cabin Cloaked in Elegance
Inside, the MC20 Notte’s theme is faithfully extended, touching every surface with the same black and gold palette. Comfort meets luxury with six-way adjustable seats, dressed in black and grey microsuede highlighted by bold strokes of yellow contrast stitching. Interior badging echoes the exterior’s white gold matte, culminating in a golden nameplate between the seats—“Unda di 50”—ensuring the exclusivity of the ride is unmistakable.
The Heart of the Notte: Unaltered Power
Beneath the evocative exterior, the MC20 Notte’s raw heart beats unchanged. The Nettuno powertrain—a fierce twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 paired with a slick eight-speed dual-clutch transmission—pulses with 621 hp and 538 ft lbs of torque. A mere 2.9 seconds is all it takes to go from stillness to 62 mph, a testament to the unbridled capabilities that lay within.
A Glimpse of the MC20 Notte’s Rarity
To behold the Maserati MC20 Notte is to glimpse rarity incarnate, with only 50 examples destined for creation, available globally. While its price remains veiled, akin to the mysteries of night itself, it is bound to command an investment surpassing its customary $217,000 threshold.
