The MC20 Cielo gets a folding hard-top with electrochromic glass roof, which offers clear sky views even above the roof.
Maserati has revealed the new MC20 Cielo – the drop-top spider derivative of its MC20 mid-engine supercar. The second derivative of the company’s new flagship supercar, the Cielo uses the same Nettuno V6 as the coupé, with the folding roof adding another 65kg to the total weight. However, the main attraction of the Cielo is its roof which in addition to folding features an electrochromic glass panel, which allows drivers to enjoy pseudo-open-top motoring even with the roof open. The Cielo is the second of the three variants that the company has planned for the MC20 in the coming years along with the all-electric folgore.
In terms of looks, the MC 20 retains the low and flowing proportions of the Cielo Coupe, with the most notable difference being the roof and rear deck. The Cielo drops the raked rear window with the Maserati emblem, in favor of a flatter deck cover emblazoned with the Maserati Trident and folding buttresses that house. The air vents above the rear wheel arches have also been revamped. The cabin is also unchanged from the coupe.

Focusing on the roof, Maserati says it can be quickly folded and deployed in 12 seconds with the electrochromic glass panel, allowing users to enjoy the open skies without lowering the ceiling. The feature, called ‘Sky Feeling’ by Maserati, uses polymer-dispersed liquid crystal technology to adjust the opacity of the glass panels so that users can enjoy a clear view of the sky. Similar technology has been used by other luxury car manufacturers, including Mercedes-Benz, which labels its technical Magic Sky Control.

Speaking of the engine, there has been a slight change here with the familiar Nettuno V6. With the 3.0-litre twin-turbocharged unit producing 621 bhp and 720 Nm, Maserati claims a top speed of 100 kmph in less than 2.9 seconds.
