Finally had news that my Trofeo is in production, current status "20", although been at that stage since end of July as factory currently on summer recess. Lets hope things move at a swift pace when the factory starts up again later this month and that they have all the parts required to complete it. Looking forward to its arrival now. 😊

Congrats, possibly getting our cars around the same time, my dealer is waiting for the factory to reopen to get more of an update.

I did not know the factory was not open. I was at my dealer a week and a half ago picking up a new Alfa Romeo. At that time dealer told me my car was on the assembly line being built, and gave me a very general estimate of delivery time. Then Saturday the dealer contacted me, and said they had a further update and gave me the October 12th date. I had not contacted them as I did not expect any change in the status so soon.

My dealer contacted me start of August to tell me mine was also in production and not to expect to much more info for a few weeks as they were now closed for their annual holiday until late August. But also said as soon as they return he will keep me informed as to its progress, although apparently progress can be slow sometimes and periods where not much happens, but expected around October delivery.

I'm new here on the forum and I'm also one of the lucky buyers of the Maserati Grecale.
I chose the Modena, in Grigio Lava with Ghiaccio interior color. 21" rims are also included (yellow calipers) as well as all the other extras.
Before I drove exclusively Mercedes, last the GLC. Actually I was planning to order the newest model. However, I was no longer satisfied with the build quality (a lot of plastic) and the rather marginal design update. It also suddenly felt boring to me.
Then the Grecale came along. After the test drive I was completely excited. Finally, real emotions about a car again. No boring colors, a nice sound, a best in class sound system, the wonderful seats and then of course, that elegant and special design, inside and outiside. With the latest infotainment system, it was clear to me to say goodbye to Mercedes and enter the world of Maserati.

I ordered mine on July, 26 and the expected delivery date is October, 9. (that's quick...!)

Welcome to the forum. Nice choice.👍
I think those of us that were lucky to get orders in early will start to see them in October and it looks like you may be one of the first 😉
Like yourself I was impressed with the Grecale and ordered, well put a holding deposit down first even before the UK launch back at the beginning of April as there was only 10 Trofeo Primaseries coming to the UK. Don't forget to keep us all updated on delivery and obviously a few pic's on collection.

Thanks for the warm welcome @EDZ! The Trofeo is also no bad choice

Sure I will post the latest updates right here. Looking forward to any kind of news.

Any updates from your side yet?
I haven't heard anything from my dealer yet and looking at the car brokers in Europe, no one has a Mondena model yet (Only GT/Trofeo).

Hi ya
The last update I had a week or so back was a slight delay in production/delivery. Quoted build completion is now end of October and I should now have my car start of November instead of later this month as originally quoted. There are still no models as of yet in the UK and it appears now the start of November is the due date. I believe it's only the GT and Trefeo Primasirie models arriving as there is no Modena Primaserie coming to UK, that is reserved I believe for the USA market which probably explains your Europe search findings.

Thanks @EDZ
I see. I also think that there is a delay. There is still a request pending with my dealer.
But I also expect November at the moment. I will keep you posted.

Welcome to the forum.
I'm from Europe (UK) but have no information on North America. There are a few on the forum with orders and hopefully someone will have a little more news for you. Have you a car on order ?

Yes. I ordered a blu intenso Modena launch package. I was told end of October but now that seems very unlikely.

Nice colour.

As I posted above, think everyone with orders is in the same boat. Maserati seem to be a little behind, as unfortunately most manufacturers at present due to the on going semi conductor and parts supply issues. On placing my order back in April it was later confirmed mid to late October delivery but is now looking more like late November, even though I was told my car went into build in August. A friend of mine has a new Macan on order which completed build early September but has been sitting in the dealers compound ever since awaiting for missing parts to be fitted.

The wait is very tough. It seems that realistically we will be getting our cars in dec or January.

I'm ok with the wait my last 3 cars have taken between 12 and 18 months to arrive. What I find tough is when you are given a delivery date and it doesn't happen and a few more months are added on when you get very close to the original date given, a little more regular information on progress along the way would be good. Just to be kept in the loop on progress as they say rather than us having to keep contacting the dealer asking and waiting for a response whilst they find out, that's the frustrating tough point to me.
