MASERATI has added extra sporty looks to new MC editions of three of its cars equipped with powerful V8 petrol engines.

The new editions are named MC - for Maserati Corse, or Maserati racing - and are available with the most potent examples of the Ghibli, Levante and Quattroporte models and available in two exclusive colours, Giallo Corse and Blue Vittoria.

Giallo Corse is a described as a three-layer yellow colour with blue mica interfering with the light, for a sporty and advanced look.

Conversely, Blue Vittoria is a matte three-layer blue, described by Maserati as extremely deep, impactful, new and contemporary.

Yellow and blue are the colours of Modena, the city that symbolises the Motor Valley and is the home of Maserati.To complement the exterior, the MC Edition range features distinctive details in Piano Black and a specific badge on the rear fender and B-pillar.

The Levante MC Edition has 22ins wheels, with 21ins rims on the Ghibli and Quattroporte. The gloss black finish of the wheel rims and blue brake calipers complete the look.

The MC Edition's link with racing spirit and Modena is also evident in the interior features, including components in blue carbon fibre in the cabin. The yellow and blue stitching on the seats across the natural Nero Pienofiore black leather is juxtaposed with denim accents. The headrest is embellished with the MC Edition logo and a dedicated badge takes over the centre of the console.

The specs of the special series are completed with an electronic sunroof, Bowers & Wilkins surround sound system and Driver Assistance package.

The cars go on sale this month; no prices have been released yet.
