 Maserati MCXtrema 

Maserati MCXtrema (2025 Model) Overview

The Ultimate Track-Only Hyper-Weapon from Modena

The Maserati MCXtrema is not just a car — it’s a no-compromise, track-only hyper-machine born from Maserati’s racing DNA and engineered for the most exclusive clientele. Unveiled in 2024 as a spiritual successor to the legendary MC12, the MCXtrema is a limited-to-70-units hypercar that pushes the boundaries of performance, aerodynamics, and exclusivity.

Inspired by the MC20, but stripped of all road-legal comforts, the MCXtrema is a purebred circuit weapon — handcrafted in Modena, developed with motorsport expertise, and designed to dominate on track days, private circuits, and exclusive collector events.
