Introduction: Last month, Maserati released a new mid-size SUV - Grecale, less than a month later, that is, on April 21, Grecale was officially launched, launched a total of 5 configuration models, and announced its guidance price, 63.88-106.38 million yuan. As soon as the price came out, many people thought that the pricing was high, especially compared to the Macan, which was sold for 554,000 yuan, there was no competitiveness in terms of price alone. So is it really as netizens said, let's analyze and analyze.
In terms of price, the guidance price of Maserati Grecale is 638,880-1,063,800 yuan, while the guidance price of Porsche Macan is 554,000-84.80 million yuan, and the most intuitive is the starting price, Grecale is 84,800 yuan higher than The Macan.
In terms of models, Grecale provides gt, Modena and Trofeo versions in terms of power configuration, and the power corresponds to 2.0T low power, 2.0T high power and 3.0T respectively. The Macan side also has three sets of power, which are 2.0T, 2.9T low power and 2.9T low power. Of course, in terms of power parameters, there will be differences between the power versions of the two cars, which is related to performance, and we will talk about it in detail.
The GT version of the Grecale is a 2.0T low-power engine with a maximum power of 300 hp and a maximum torque of 450 Nm;
The Grecale Modena version is a 2.0T high-power engine with a maximum power of 330 hp and a maximum torque of 450 Nm;
The Grecale Trofeo version is a 3.0T engine with a maximum power of 530 hp and a maximum torque of 620 Nm.
In terms of transmission, it is matched with the 8-speed manual transmission, and its official zero hundred acceleration results are 5.6s, 5.3s and 3.8s, respectively.
The Macan is a 2.0T engine with a maximum power of 265 hp and a maximum torque of 400 Nm;
The Macan S is a 2.9T low-power engine with a maximum power of 380 hp and a maximum torque of 520 Nm;
The Macan GTS is a 2.9T high-power engine with a maximum power of 441 hp and a maximum torque of 550 Nm.
In terms of transmission, it is matched with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, and its official zero hundred acceleration results are 6.4s (6.2s), 4.8s and 4.5s, respectively.
In terms of power performance, in addition to the medium-powered model, the Grecale GT version can be said to be superior to the Macan in terms of parameters and acceleration performance, but the comprehensive performance of the lower track is still unknown.
In terms of configuration, take the low-end model of the two cars (638,800 Gregare 2.0T GT and 554,000 Macan 2.0T) as an example.
First of all, the main configuration provided by the two cars is 6 airbags, front and rear radar, cruise control, main and co-driver escrow seats, vehicle networking, automatic headlights, etc.;
The Grecale 2.0T GT has more configurations: active braking, reversing image, Bluetooth key, keyless start, keyless entry, remote start, full LCD instrumentation, main driver waist support, two-row backrest adjustment, dual central control screen, CarPlay/CarLife, Shiba 14 speaker audio, exterior mirror memory/reverse down flip/automatic anti-glare, etc.;
The Macan 2.0T has relatively additional features such as lane departure warning, variable steering ratio, active closed intake grille, front seat heating, turn headlights, etc.
Taken together, I think the Grecate 2.0T GT is a bit more configurable than the Macan 2.0T.
In terms of body size, the Grecale has a length, width and height of 4846/1948/1670mm and a wheelbase of 2901mm, while the Macan has a 4726/1922/1621mm and a wheelbase of 2807mm.
Although both cars are mid-size SUVs, the Grecale is still one size larger than the Macan.
Regarding the ride part, according to some media measurements, Grecale's space also has certain advantages over Macan.
Ah Chuan commented on the car
Through the comparison of several key product strength parts such as power, configuration, size, etc., it is not difficult to find that Grecale seems to be ahead of Macan, of course, this may be the reason why The price of Grecale is more than 80,000 more expensive than Macan. In terms of brand power, although it seems that Maserati's voice is smaller than Porsche' at present, Maserati's super luxury brand heritage is still there, and I believe that with the arrival of The Gregale's "low-cost car", it may allow Maserati to usher in the second spring in China, and at the same time find the presence of the Maserati brand in China.
