Not a concept car, but the latest version of one of the best-looking supercars available, the Maserati MC20.
This edition, the MC20 Notte (Italian for night) has been given the all-black treatment, with some unique touches.
Developed by Maserati’s Fuoriserie custom and personalisation team and racing driver Andrea Bertolini, the MC20 Notte has an exterior that turns from a glossy black shade to a magnetic matte hue with some glowing details – including the Trident, the side logos and the Maserati signature.
The look reaches the wheels too, with the MC20 Notte sitting on 20-inch matte black birdcage wheels with accents in matte white gold and black calipers behind them.
Inside, there’s more of the dark and light accent touches. Six-way power sport seats are in Alcantara black/grey with yellow stitching, the Maserati Trident is on the headrests, and the Alcantara sport steering wheel has carbon fibre inserts. A metal plate celebrating the MC20 Notte Edition along with a distinctive ‘UNA DI 50’ (one of 50) signature is applied between the two headrests.
Power for the MC20 Notte comes via Maserati’s extraordinary Nettuno engine, the twin-turbo, 3-litre V6 includes technology derived from Formula One and pumps out up to 464kW and 730Nm, enabling a sub-3 second sprint to 100km/h and a top speed over 325km/h.
Production of the MC20 Notte will be limited to just 50 units and Maserati says those will be available ‘globally’, suggesting some well-heeled enthusiast may be able to get their hands on one locally.
