Side-by-Side Specs
| Spec | Maserati Grecale Folgore | Smart #1 |
|---|---|---|
| Compared variant | Standard | Pro+ |
| Battery (approx.) | ~99 kWh | ~62 kWh |
| WLTP range (rated) | ~530 km | ~440 km |
| Efficiency (approx.) | ~219 Wh/km | ~185 Wh/km |
| DC fast charging (published) | up to 150 kW | up to 150 kW |
| 10-80% charge time (approx.) | ~38 min | ~30 min |
| Max AC charging | up to 22 kW | up to 22 kW |
| DC connector | CCS2 | CCS2 |
Charging Speed
The Smart #1 has the higher published DC fast-charging figure at 150 kW, which is comparable to the Maserati Grecale Folgore at 150 kW. In practice, that figure 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 Smart #1 finishes in about 30 minutes, which is 8 minutes quicker than the Maserati Grecale Folgore at 38 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.
Range and Efficiency
The Maserati Grecale Folgore has a WLTP rated range of approximately 530 km, which is roughly 90 km more than the Smart #1 at approximately 440 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 Smart #1 consumes 185 Wh/km, compared to 219 Wh/km for the Maserati Grecale Folgore. That means the Smart #1 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 Maserati Grecale Folgore has approximately 99 kWh of useable battery , while the Smart #1 has approximately 62 kWh.
Which One Should You Choose?
Both cars show similar published DC fast-charging figures at 150 kW. For road trips, the one with more range between stops may be more practical.
Both cars support 22 kW AC charging, so home and workplace charging speeds will be similar.
If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Smart #1 is the more efficient choice at 185 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.
For maximum range between charges, the Maserati Grecale Folgore has a WLTP rated range of approximately 530 km, which is roughly 90 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.

From Finn, engineer: Charging specs alone do not tell the full story. Real-world charging speed depends on battery temperature, state of charge, and the charger itself. These comparisons use manufacturer-published data. Approximate values only.
