Maserati’s electrification journey sets sail.
With its rapidly expanding Folgore lineup, Maserati is deeply committed to electrification, and the announcement of the MC20 Folgore supercar, and GranCabrio Folgore open-top grand tourer being added to the Trident’s all-electric portfolio, Maserati seeks to be at the forefront of electrification in the luxury performance automotive world. However, the automotive world isn’t the limit for Maserati’s pursuit of electrification, as the historic luxury manufacturer is now announcing the creation of a Maserati-branded electric boat.
Joining forces with Vita Power, a marine manufacturer dedicated to revolutionizing boating through the use of fully electric powertrains, the new Maserati Tridente boat from Vita combines Vita’s marine innovation with Maserati’s iconic Italian design and approach to luxury. The Vita Maserati Tridente is an all-electric powerboat, boasting two motors paired with a 253-kWh battery pack, which provides an estimated range of up to 70 nautical miles and 600 maximum horsepower.
Its luxurious accommodations include seating for up to 8, which can be configured in a dining or acceleration arrangement, as well as a sundeck, a bathing area with a shower, and an enclosed cabin with a day berth and WC. Built for lake or coastal day cruising, the vessel charges at up to 88kW, with two independent motors that can charge simultaneously in as little as one hour on a DC fast charger.
Its innovation also goes beyond its electric powertrain, as it features carbon fiber construction by Hodgdon Yachts, in a hull shape that is unique to the Maserati Tridente. Vita Power has made its new Maserati Tridente available now, and its price starts at 2.5 million euros, which converts to under $2.7 million USD. With the iconic history of Maserati, the marine technology of Vita Power, and the ambitious vision of electrification of both joining forces, the new Vita Power Maserati Tridente is a luxurious and futuristic way to sail.
