Maserati is opening two new showrooms in Glasgow and Manchester as part of a new partnership with AM100 dealership group Arnold Clark.

The luxury Italian brand has previously had a presence in both cities - in Glasgow with Parks Motor Group and with HR Owen in Manchester and Stockport. Parks ceased operations for Maserati last summer in Glasgow while HR Owen Stockport has been replaced by Arnold Clark.

The new Arnold Clark dealerships will offer both sales and aftersales services when they open later this month.

Customers visiting the new showrooms will be able to explore the complete Maserati line-up, including the Grecale SUV, offered in both petrol and all-electric versions. Also on display will be the new GranCabrio, the elegant GranTurismo coupé, and the high-performance MC20 supercar, powered by a 630hp twin-turbo Nettuno V6 engine.

Mariangela Del Vecchio, head of Maserati North Europe, said: “I’m delighted to welcome Arnold Clark to the Maserati family. They have a hard-earned reputation for high-quality customer service, and we look forward to serving customers in Glasgow and Manchester with our beautifully crafted Italian cars.”

Callum Rankin, group brand director at Arnold Clark, added: “We’re proud to have Maserati joining the Arnold Clark franchise. This iconic brand represents the pinnacle of Italian luxury and performance, and its arrival allows us to offer an even more exciting driving experience. Maserati’s legacy of innovation and growth aligns perfectly with our own values.”
