Maserati Officially Launches Mid-Size Grecale SUV In Singapore!
Maserati's official Singapore distributor, Tridente Automobili, has launched the Italian automaker's new mid-sized Grecale SUV. It joins the larger Levante as part of the Trident brand's SUV range.
Maserati designed their new Grecale SUV to be "The Everyday Exceptional", balancing versatility, elegance, performance and innovation, whilst also concurrently promising performance, comfort and safety.

We’ve known for a while now that the death of the ICE is close at hand and we now live in a strange crossover period between the outgoing dino-juice machines and the incoming electrics. While brands are delivering their eulogies and last hurrahs, they simultaneously push out and populate the market with the latest in EV technology and the iX is no different.
