First announced in 2020 when the gas-powered MC20 was unveiled, the Folgore version was supposed to arrive this year, but now it will never see the light of day.

Maserati was planning to introduce an all-electric avatar of the MC20 supercar, since the internal combustion engine powered model debuted in 2020. Five years down the road, the MC20 Folgore electric supercar was expected to launch in 2025.

Stellantis-owned Maserati has cancelled plans for an electric version of its MC20 sports car because of expected poor demand, the struggling luxury carmaker said on Tuesday.

“In light of this, Maserati is currently managing the manufacturing ramp-up of the GT2 Stradale version of the MC20 in Modena, which will be available to North American customers this summer, but has decided to discontinue the MC20 BEV Project due to a perceived lack of commercial interest.”
