The Maserati Mc20 features flowing curves, sharp edges, and design details perfect for a supercar. There are vented slots on the rear screen that add more flair to the appearance of the car by forming the shape of the Maserati trident. The MC20 also features butterfly doors.
The Interior Design of the MC20
The interior of the MC20 is as excellent as its exterior, boasting bucket seats with a perfect driving position that depicts a supercar. The car features nice stitching throughout on the seats, dashboard, and door panels. It also boasts enough passenger room with decent visibility. Maserati gave the MC20 a buttonless interior as its touchscreen is used in controlling most of the car’s features such as the A/C.
There is a knob to select the drive mode and two buttons for the transmission but there’s no park or neutral, only drive and reverse. The car comes with a simple and user-friendly center console. The window and volume control knob is located closer to the small center stack compartment.
The MC20 comes with an impressive 10.0-inch touchscreen with an infotainment system that’s easy to use and with nice graphics. What is lacking in the Maserati MC20 is sufficient cargo space as its occupants may wish for more places to put their belongings, as there are no cubbies or cupholders.
