Maserati has unveiled the MCPURA Cielo Tributo 1926, a specially designed vehicle through its Fuoriserie customisation programme. This vehicle was delivered to Modena on June 11, 2026, as part of the passage of the 2026 Mille Miglia through the city. The vehicle is designed to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Maserati Trident logo, which first appeared on the Tipo 26 race car in 1926.
What Is the Historical Significance of the MCPURA Cielo Tributo 1926?
The unique design refers to April 25, 1926, when Alfieri Maserati took part in the Targa Florio race in the Tipo 26, the first Maserati car to bear the Trident badge. This project pays tribute to the brand’s century-old logo and highlights its racing history over the last hundred years.
The delivery of the vehicle was associated with the 2026 Mille Miglia race, which is significant to the company. Maserati’s participation in the race dates back to 1931, when the Tipo 26 C took part and won the class.
What Are the Elements of the Exterior Design that Refer to the Original Tipo 26?
The exterior of the MCPURA Cielo Tributo 1926 features a matte Grigio Lamiera paint job that mimics the look of the competition cars of the 1920s. The exterior livery features Rosso Capannelle, Blu Infinito, and Bianco Pastello highlights.
A replica of the Tipo 26 emblem has been mounted on the hood, forming an immediate visual association between the new car and the 1926 racing car. Other design touches include Tridents visible on the front end and the B-pillars, as well as the Fuoriserie emblem, which has been painted white.
It sits on 20″ Cyclonic wheels with a diamond-cut look and red detailing, along with black brake callipers. The tonneau cover comes with the current Maserati Trident emblem, as well as the 1926 emblem created by Mario Maserati.
What Special Features Have Been Included Inside the Car?
The interior has been customised according to customer specifications using the Fuoriserie programme. Trident emblems have been sewn onto the headrests, in addition to the use of carbon-fibre inlays available through the Interior Carbon Package.
Furthermore, the car has heated seats and a Sonus Faber High Premium audio system.
It provides a total of 695 watts and 12 speakers. The interior is characterised by bespoke design and a variety of comfort and convenience equipment meant for regular road driving.
What Technologies and Driver Assistance Features Are Featured in the Car?
The MCPURA Cielo Tributo 1926 is equipped with several driver assistance technologies. They include the Driver Assistance Pack, which offers several driver assistance and safety technologies. Also, there is a front axle lift technology meant to increase ground clearance when going over speed bumps and steep driveways.
In addition, the car has several visible carbon-fibre components from the Exterior Carbon Package. In particular, the doors have the signatures of Alfieri Maserati and mechanic Guerino Bertocchi.
How Does the Fuoriserie Programme Make It Possible to Create Bespoke Cars?
The MCPURA Cielo Tributo 1926 has been produced in accordance with the manufacturer’s Fuoriserie programme. This division specialises in personalised, limited-production cars. Clients can collaborate with the company’s designers to choose individual options for exterior and interior colour and equipment.
This method ensures that highly customised vehicles are produced, quite different from regular production cars, and that all projects are based on a specific customer brief.
