A wonderful creation made to devour the asphalt and trip through the curves, a true gem of mechanics and aerodynamics, perfect for balance and handling. For months, we worked together with a team of highly skilled and passionate people, waiting for the moment we could bring the finished object to its natural habitat, after putting it through its virtual paces in sophisticated simulations. What makes this car great is outstanding teamwork, resulting in a sports car of the future. With MCXtrema, we have raised the bar of development even further, working with the track in sight and always bearing in mind the needs of the Maserati customer, who remains the focus of our work and to whom this car is dedicated. The interior has been designed around the driver; we developed a cockpit as a cross between a fighter and a Formula 1 single-seater. MCXtrema is an evolution of the MC20 without type approval for the road: for the Trident\u2019s super sports car par excellence, we had already worked obsessively on its handling and overall architecture, to achieve this ultimate, extreme, and exhilarating version. MCXtrema is a thrill to drive, unlike any other car&#8221;.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-849290\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6-100x56.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6-770x433.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6-293x165.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Maserati-MCXtrema-on-track-6-1400x788.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>MCXtrema customers are getting ready to receive something incredibly unique.
