Maserati Celebrates 20 Years of Racing with MC20 Icona and MC20 Leggenda
Exactly 20 years ago, Maserati returned to motorsports with the MC12. Now, the Italian automaker honors this milestone with two special edition models, the MC20 Icona and MC20 Leggenda. These cars pay tribute to two iconic MC12s of the past with special exterior finishes.
Icona: A Tribute to the MC12 Stradale
The MC20 Icona features a two-tone white and blue paint scheme, specifically Bianco Audace Matte with Blue Stradale accents. This color combination is reminiscent of the MC12 Stradale, making the Icona instantly recognizable. Maserati’s Fuoriserie Personalization Program adds unique touches to the Icona, such as white logos, an Italian flag motif, and blue brake calipers. The car’s interior boasts black racing seats with blue contrast stitching.
Leggenda: Inspired by the MC12 GT1 Vitaphone
The MC20 Leggenda pays homage to the MC12 GT1 Vitaphone with a predominantly black exterior and teal accents. The shades used, Nero Essenza and Digital Mint Matte, create a striking look for the Leggenda. Similar to the Icona, the Leggenda features unique trim upgrades from Maserati’s Fuoriserie program, including mint logos, yellow badging, and black brake calipers. Inside, the Leggenda is equipped with black racing seats with silver contrast stitching.
Performance of the MC20
Both the MC20 Icona and Leggenda share the same performance capabilities as the standard MC20. Powered by a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 engine, producing 621 horsepower, these special editions can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds. With a lightweight design and advanced technology, the MC20 offers an exhilarating driving experience.
Limited Production
To commemorate Maserati’s 20th anniversary of returning to racing, only 20 units of each special edition trim will be produced. This exclusivity makes the MC20 Icona and MC20 Leggenda highly sought-after collector’s items for automotive enthusiasts and Maserati fans alike.
In conclusion, the MC20 Icona and MC20 Leggenda represent a fitting tribute to Maserati’s racing heritage. With their unique exterior designs, personalized interiors, and exceptional performance, these special edition models embody the spirit of excellence that defines the Maserati brand.
