2023 Maserati MC20 and MC20 Cielo pricing and features for Australia revealed

The 2023 Maserati MC20 has landed in Australia, with the two-door hard-top sports car now joined by a new Cielo cabriolet variant.

Initially launched locally last year in its coupe guise, the Maserati MC20 has now spawned the drop-top MC20 Cielo, with both variants of the V6 sports car on sale locally before production starts in November 2022 and January 2023 respectively.

“The Australian response to both the MC20 and MC20 Cielo has been nothing short of remarkable, with our allocation selling out within hours,” said Maserati's Australia and New Zealand General Manager, Grant Barling.

“So we’re delighted to be able to offer further allocation and opportunity to personalise your MC20 and MC20 Cielo with the introduction of these model year additions and updates.”
