Maserati MCXtrema: The Ultimate Track Car

Introduction to the Maserati MCXtrema

The Maserati MC20 has well and truly revived the Maserati brand. The MC20 has reinvigorated the Italian carmaker’s sporty image among car enthusiasts with its back-to-basics, no-nonsense pure driving experience. Now, Maserati has taken the MC20 to another level with the track-only MCXtrema.

Powertrain and Performance

What a name, huh? And what a track toy the MCXtrema is. It has the MC20’s twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 which has been spruced up by MCX-specific turbochargers and now produces a whopping 730 horsepower. The monstrous powertrain is mated to a six-speed sequential gearbox with a garage clutch.

Design and Aerodynamics

The MCXtrema features a carbon fiber monocoque and an action-packed exterior. Key design elements include:

• Roof-mounted split air intake
• Illuminated shark fin which improves stability
• Massive rear wing

• Trident-themed tail lights
