The Maserati<\/a> Alfieri was announced way back in 2014. Back then, it was just a concept car, a styling exercise that showed where the brand wanted to be.<\/p>\n

Since the Alfieri was unveiled, Maserati hasn\u2019t done much with it. Sure, the angry, pointy front end had a clear influence on the brand\u2019s Levante<\/a> SUV, but our dreams of seeing a new, V8-engined Maserati sports car have been dead in the water for quite some time.<\/p>\n

And now they\u2019ve been revived \u2013 if slightly updated for the new times we\u2019re living in. Maserati has confirmed that the Alfieri is going into production. Only it won\u2019t be powered by a stonking, sonorous V8. Instead, it\u2019ll be an all-electric hypercar.<\/p>\n

You can stop groaning over there at the back, because you haven\u2019t heard the Alfieri\u2019s performance stats yet. According to Maserati, the proposed electric powertrain will yield a 0-100 km\/h time of under 2 seconds. That\u2019ll put it in serious competition against the recently announced, next-generation Tesla Roadster.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s likely that there\u2019ll also be a less-expensive hybrid version of the Maserati Alfieri \u2013 probably packing the Ferrari-developed V6 you currently get in the Levante<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Maserati admits that the all-electric model will probably be heavier than the hybrid one. But it hopes to offset a lot of that weight with an aluminium spaceframe chassis.<\/p>\n

The tech developed in the construction of the Alfieri will spill over into the rest of the Maserati range, too. The brand will offer hybrid versions of Levante<\/a>, Quattroporte<\/a> and Ghibli<\/a> when their next generations are announced. And it\u2019ll even share some tech with its sister brand, Alfa Romeo, to speed up the development of electrified Guilias and Stelvios.<\/p>\n

For the moment, though, we\u2019re just happy the Alfieri is finally going to see light of day. More pics below.<\/p>\n
