Maserati MC20 Cielo Mansory

The Italian brand enters a new era with the Maserati MC20 Cielo, the new super sports car that combines performance, sportiness and luxury with a unique Maserati open-air style. It is, without a doubt, an Italian work of art, as it is a car with incredible aerodynamic efficiency, which hides a sporty soul with the new Nettuno engine.

We are talking about a V6 block with 630 hp and 730 Nm of torque that catapults the MC20 Cielo from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3 seconds. The model is capable of reaching 320 km/h and weight is one of its strong points, as it increases the number by just 65 kilos compared to the coupe version. According to the brand, the model has one of the best weight/power ratios.

The body kit is available in different carbon fiber variations, as with other Mansory products. As for the interior, it features the German tuner's signature high-contrast theme, with bright yellow inserts over the black suede upholstery and matching yellow accents on the dashboard and center console.

Data from the Italian house reveals just 2.47 kg/hp thanks to the intensive use of lightweight materials such as carbon fiber. However, the people at Mansory believe that the MC20's aesthetics can be radically improved with some carbon fiber accessories, and the truth is that they have no shortage of reasons.

It is true that the MC20 Cielo gains a lot from the new elements in the Mansory package. Among the dozen additional components we can find a new front splitter that complements the two canards placed on the sides of the front bumper, new housings for the exterior mirrors and more prominent side skirts.

There is also no shortage of fender extensions, prominent fins, numerous air intakes distributed throughout the body and a voluminous hood with carbon fiber details. At the rear, attention is drawn to the provocative newly designed diffuser with F1-style brake light, a new exhaust, a custom bumper with aerodynamic fins and the spoiler of biblical proportions.

This is all combined with a set of FV.5 forged multi-spoke wheels measuring 21 inches at the front and 22 inches at the rear. They are shod with ultra-low profile tires. The preparer also offers a suspension package that lowers the height by 25 mm. But the truly interesting thing is under the hood, where we find 720 hp and 850 Nm of torque. The MC20 Cielo by Mansory accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.7 seconds and reaches 330 km/h.
