NEW Maserati Grecale Trofeo! A Very Honest Review

Check out our podcast, Behind The Glass (The UK's Number 1 Automotive Podcast)

I am joined by Tony from @BehindTheGlass as I get behind the wheel of the new #Maserati #Grecale Trofeo for the first time.
This was during the Maserati UK Press Tour which meant we only had about 30 minutes with the car, but it was enough to form some fairly strong opinions about the new Macan/X3 rival.

You two on press tours needs to happen more often!

[byrong]

Its been said many times but the on screen chemistry between you two is fantastic. Need Tony to step out from Behind the Glass and appear on the main channel much more in future

[MonkeyFencing]

Sam you are one of the only channels that I watch every single second of. Great content and always engaging! Well done and wishing you continued success.

[marcelhandsome]

Wow! The fact that they mentioned the Maserati Grecale interior is better than the Porsche Macan is a cause for celebration for the marque! a big step forward! and now a serious rival that will undoubtedly be their best seller and reach new levels of sales!

This and the MC20 are two seriously enticing cars to me. I know theyre not quite as good as their rivals, but theres something about a two-car garage of just Maseratis that makes me WANT them both

[YachtReport]

Reference the Macan you mentioned, I have that model with all the buttons, and it's way better than the new one with a piece of glass with digital buttons. When that piece of glass/plastic fails, it will all fail, much more expensive to repair. Also it's easier to use the buttons on mine as you can remember where they are by feel, and don't need to take your eyes off the road.

It was Such a pleasure watching Sam and Tony review this Maserati. The onscreen chemistry is unmatched. Kudos lads, I enjoyed watching this.

[scottmyers]

Great review. I actually just ordered one of these new for my wife's daily after a test drive. A bit pricey, but the Macan Turbo and other cars just didn't have this kind of polish and performance. I loved the way the Stelvio QV drove more, but the interior was so austere at $100K... and the large wheel gap look is awful. But you are right, all the cars in this class are all a bit too "polished" today unless in corsa driving hard. And the reason it feels like a Stelvio is it is built on the same Stelantis platform that is stretched a bit.

[scott]

Been waiting for this since the podcast, love this format and hope you and tony go on more press tours

[mikemountain]

Love the in car review, you should do more press launches together 👍🏼👍🏼

[Stevn]

It is so obvious that personally you hate Maserati, but your smile while driving it shows something else😉

[marcelhandsome]

Beautiful car! expensive but you buy for the exclusivity! these guys are mentioning the Macan being much cheaper but the Porsche isn't exclusive or special enough! The Levante Trofeo should also be considered the old-school enthusiast's choice with magical, orchestral V8 sounds!

[ottob]

I'd really like to see more content with your GT3. It doesn't have to be super special content with it, your daily use of it would still be interesting with your video making skills

[fabiomonne]

I feel like a bit of clarity is needed.
The Grecale is based on the same Giorgio platform that the Stelvio and the Giulia were based on.
Moreover only the MC20 gets the fancy precombustion chamber, the Grecale and the new GrandTurismo don't.
So the engine was originally Ferrari, then was reowrked into a V6 for Alfa Romeo, then was reworked to include the precombustion chamber and was reworked once more to remove the precombustion chamber

[anthonyjarvis]

love the videos with you both in them! stops it being a straight car vlogger review and makes it more like 2 mates talking cars!!

[paultaylor]

Fun time car reviews are back, more please Sam and Tony.

[younow]

What the hell I absolutely fuckin love this car!!!! It’s so sick!!! To think it has 530bhp stock and since it’s an up tuned quadrifoglio engine it sounds absolutely mega; literally gives German v8s a run for their money in terms of sound. Looks wise it’s a lot better than the levante which isn’t bad looking at all. What a car!

[kings]

More of you two please. You bounce off each other great. I watch every podcast and enjoy them so much.

[nadiafreitas]

Perfect moment 12:30. Laughed my head off when you clearly did not expect how the car actually responded. Absolutely brilliant youtube moment ☺️☺️

[ajcgolf]

I actually said the thing about the Ford Puma lights 30 seconds before Sam!
Personally I think the Alfa Stelvio looks much better than the gracale
