Remember the Maserati Alfieri? Of course you don"t. Maserati first revealed its F-type-alike two-seat coupe back in 2014 and given how much happens in a week these days new memes, new royals, new memes about royals you can"t very well be expected to recall a pretty but defunct concept car from four years ago Except it"s back! Yes, the Maserati Alfieri is going into production, really, promise, absolutely-gonna-happen this time. And Maserati has selected it as the spearhead for its new hybrid and electrification programme. The Alfieri will ditch the concept"s V8 engine, and be offered as a plug-in hybrid and a bespoke EV. This is the part where we say look out, Tesla", or some such clich . Then again Maserati claims the all-electric, all-wheel drive version of the, erm, Alfi-E-ri will be good for a 0-62mph time of less than two seconds. Yep, one-point-something to sixty. That puts it right alongside the proposed Tesla Roadster"s performance claims.

But it will do it in some boring soulless way.
I’d take the Dodge Demon and suffer the 1sec slower time for the noise and excitement.
