As reported on CarScoops<\/a>, Maserati have officially named their new supercar the MC20, following the nomenclature of the previous hypercar, the MC12<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Maserati<\/p>\n

However, information has been obtained that the new MC20 will have the engine in the middle and will have a full on carbon tub that is proportioned to be comfortable and spacious. The rumor going about is that the tub is based on the Alfa Romeo 4C<\/a>, but with expanded dimensions.<\/p>\n

Also part of the rumor mill, the twin-turbo V6 engine of the MC20 was originally meant to be the engine that Alfra Romeo GTV and 8C cars. Those cars were to have a 3.0 liter V6, but it has been enlarged to allow 3.6 liters.<\/p>\n

Expected power figures are in the 600+ HP range, with an 8 speed Getrag gearbox driving the rear wheels. A hybrid powertrain is also rumored, which would be all wheel drive and produce a combined 700+ HP.<\/p>\n

The stated intent of the car is to compete head to head with the likes of McLaren, especially the 720S<\/a> and the 600LT<\/a> models.<\/p>\n

\"Maserati<\/p>\n

Details are short otherwise, however more information is expected to be trickled out leading up to the May 2020 unveiling of the MC20 in Modena.<\/p>\n

This marks the return of Maserati to a supercar builder, as the current model range focuses more on performance luxury in a similar vein to Jaguar and BMW. This is despite the current engines used in Maserati’s are designed and built by Ferrari.<\/p>\n
