## What is the Nettuno engine?

Maserati’s own 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6, designed in Modena and first used in the MC20. Its distinguishing feature is pre-chamber combustion: a small chamber above the main one with its own spark plug, a technique taken from Formula One, which lets the engine run a very high compression ratio for a turbocharged petrol. In the MC20 it makes 621bhp; in the Grecale Trofeo, 523bhp through all four wheels.

## How does it compare with the German alternatives?

It is lighter than an RS Q8 — around 2,030kg against 2,300kg — and the engine has a harder edge, with less low-down shove and more reward for using the revs. It is also far rarer on a British road, so the car reads as a choice rather than a default. The German cars are better finished inside, and that is a fair criticism of it.

## What does it cost to hire?

A refundable deposit near £3,000 and an excess to match are typical. Longer bookings bring the daily figure down.

## Who tends to hire it?

People who want an Italian car for a few days but still need five seats and a boot, and businesses moving guests around an event without arriving in something obvious. It is a frequent photoshoot booking as well, because the shape works on camera and the badge is unusual enough here to be worth the frame.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can you hire a Maserati Grecale in the UK?

Yes, on a sourced basis. We arrange it through a partner rather than supplying it ourselves, and a named car and your dates are confirmed before anything is agreed.

### Does the Grecale Trofeo use the same engine as the MC20?

The same Nettuno architecture, adapted for the SUV and tuned to 523bhp rather than the MC20’s 621bhp. The 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 layout and the pre-chamber combustion system carry across.

### Is the Grecale Trofeo four-wheel drive?

Yes. The Trofeo drives all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic, and it carries air suspension as standard, which the lower trims do not.

*Performance & Prestige hires vehicles from its own fleet and, where a vehicle is not one of ours, arranges it through a vetted partner. Cars marked "we can source" are subject to confirmation before anything is agreed. Rates include VAT. Nothing is booked or paid for through this website: a person confirms the car, the full cost and the delivery slot with you first.*

*Pre-launch note: the rates, driver criteria, deposits, excesses and mileage allowances quoted here are read from Performance & Prestige's own catalogue data, which is still being confirmed with the owner and the insurer. Read them as the shape of the figures rather than as a quotation. What binds is your written quote and your hire agreement.*
