This spring, Maserati participated in the International Concours of Elegance (I.C.E.) St. Mortiz. This luxurious Swiss venue hosted the best classic cars from around the world, along with car enthusiast and collectors. The two-day affair showcased the power and elegance of vintage classics, and this year the house of the Trident excelled.

The star of the show was easily the original classic Maserati 420M/58 Eldorado, on full display during the conference. In fact, this vehicle won the “Open Wheels” category for single-seaters built between the 1950s and the 1970s. The 420M/58 Eldorado was designed and built to compete in the second 500 Miglia in Monza, held in 1958, and was never mass-produced for consumers. This vehicle is literally one of a kind. 

Maserati also showed off the classic Maserati 3500 GT Touring, a milestone vehicle for the company. The 3500GT Touring was Maserati’s first successful production Grand Touring vehicle. The sexy two-door couple began production in 1957 and 18 were made that year. This tradition of manufacturing GTs was eventually carried on with the Mistral in 1963, the first to inspire the brand’s tradition of naming vehicles after famous winds. 

Classic rarities were not the only vehicles on display in St. Mortiz. Maserati also let some of the latest shine: the GranTurismo Folgore, the Trident’s first all-electric vehicle, the unique ‘Mission from Mars’ Fuoriserie Grecale SUV, the one-of-a-kind MC20 Cielo Spyder in its Fuoriserie version, and the all-new powerful GranTurismo Trofeo. These reimagined classics are launching Maserati into the future. 

The Trident team is highly anticipating the announcement of next year’s I.C.E. and looks forward to the classy display of vintage, and state of the art vehicles to be featured next year.
