Maserati back-up open and start pages separated

Maserati back-up open and start

With the introduction of several new models, our Maserati back-up open and start page became unwieldy. So, we separated them.

The new models introduced in 2023 and 2024, Grecale, GranTourismo, GranCabrio, and GT2S, added two additional unlock options and a brand new way to start the vehicles. Prior to this, there was but a single back-up option for both entry and start, and no key holes were hidden.

Key holes are now hidden on all models, including the MC20. This was not the case with any models prior to 2023.

The gull winged MC20 and GT2S will likely lead to someone lying on the ground to find the covered keyhole under the floor at the back of the driver’s door!

In any case, you can find the back-up open page here and the back-up start page here. These procedures are made necessary if or when the battery in the key fob dies.
