Maserati GranTurismo Folgore vs Tesla Model 3

Side-by-Side Specs

Charging Speed

The Maserati GranTurismo Folgore has a peak DC charging speed of 270 kW, which is roughly 54% faster than the Tesla Model 3 at 175 kW. In practice, peak speed only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.

For the 10-80% charge (the most common DC fast charging scenario), the Maserati GranTurismo Folgore finishes in about 22 minutes, which is 2 minutes quicker than the Tesla Model 3 at 24 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.

Range and Efficiency

The Tesla Model 3 has a WLTP rated range of approximately 513 km, which is roughly 13 km more than the Maserati GranTurismo Folgore at approximately 500 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.

Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Tesla Model 3 consumes 147 Wh/km, compared to 198 Wh/km for the Maserati GranTurismo Folgore. That means the Tesla Model 3 uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.

A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The Tesla Model 3 has approximately 57.5 kWh of useable battery , while the Maserati GranTurismo Folgore has approximately 83 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

If fast charging speed is your priority, the Maserati GranTurismo Folgore wins on both peak power (up to 270 kW) and time at the plug (approximately 22 minutes from 10-80%). For long road trips with multiple charging stops, that faster turnaround makes a real difference.

For AC charging (home wallboxes, workplace chargers, and public street chargers), the Maserati GranTurismo Folgore supports up to 22 kW, compared to 11 kW for the Tesla Model 3. In Europe, many public chargers are 22 kW AC, so this difference can mean charging roughly twice as fast at those locations.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Tesla Model 3 is the more efficient choice at 147 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the Tesla Model 3 has a WLTP rated range of approximately 513 km, which is roughly 13 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
