The India–European Union Free Trade Agreement (FTA) is expected to bring a major transformation to India’s luxury and performance car market. Import duties on European vehicles, which currently go as high as 110%, may gradually reduce to 10–20%. Since all Maserati models sold in India are fully imported (CBU), the brand stands to benefit greatly from this agreement. Lower tariffs on engines, electronics, luxury interiors, and safety systems will significantly reduce landed costs, making Maserati cars far more attainable for Indian buyers.
Below is a model-wise breakdown of how Maserati prices could change after the FTA.
Maserati Ghibli Price After India–EU FTA
The Maserati Ghibli is a luxury sports sedan known for its Italian styling and powerful performance. It is currently priced around ₹1.15–1.25 crore in India. After the FTA, the estimated price could fall to ₹75–90 lakh. Being fully imported, the Ghibli attracts heavy customs duties. With reduced tariffs, Maserati could significantly lower its price, making the Ghibli a compelling alternative to German luxury sedans while maintaining its sporty character.
Maserati Quattroporte Price After India–EU FTA
The Maserati Quattroporte is the brand’s flagship luxury sedan, blending comfort, performance, and prestige. It is currently priced between ₹1.80–2.00 crore in India. After the FTA, the estimated price could drop to ₹1.15–1.35 crore. High import taxes on its powertrain, premium interiors, and electronics inflate its cost. Reduced duties would make the Quattroporte far more competitive in the ultra-luxury sedan segment, attracting buyers seeking exclusivity.
Maserati Levante Price After India–EU FTA
The Levante is Maserati’s luxury performance SUV and is currently priced around ₹1.49–1.64 crore in India. After the FTA, its estimated price could fall to ₹95 lakh–₹1.15 crore. As a fully imported SUV, it attracts high import duty. Lower tariffs would significantly reduce its landed cost, making the Levante a strong competitor to luxury SUVs from Porsche, BMW, and Mercedes.
Maserati Grecale Price After India–EU FTA
The Maserati Grecale is a compact luxury SUV positioned below the Levante. It is currently priced around ₹1.20–1.35 crore. After the FTA, it could drop to ₹80–95 lakh. Imported engines, electronics, and safety systems attract heavy duties. Reduced tariffs would make the Grecale more accessible and expand Maserati’s customer base in India.
Maserati MC20 Price After India–EU FTA
The Maserati MC20 is a mid-engine supercar and the brand’s performance flagship. It is currently priced at around ₹3.69 crore in India. After the FTA, the estimated price could fall to ₹2.30–2.70 crore. As a fully imported carbon-fibre supercar, it attracts massive import duty. Lower tariffs would dramatically reduce its price, making it one of the most exciting supercars in the Indian market.
Conclusion
The India–EU FTA could be a game changer for Maserati in India, cutting prices by ₹40 lakh to over ₹1 crore per model. From luxury sedans to SUVs and supercars, Maserati could soon become far more attainable for Indian buyers, strengthening its presence in the ultra-luxury segment.
