Competition history |
The Maserati 4CM is an open-wheel Grand Prix motor racing car, designed, developed and built by Italian manufacturer Maserati, in 1932.[2][3]
It was constructed to run to Voiturette rules and regulations; which specified a capacity of less than 1.5 L (92 cu in). The Maserati 4CM was equipped with either a 1.5 L (92 cu in), or a 1.1 L (67 cu in) four-cylinder engines. With the addition of a roots supercharger, this boosted power to 90–150 hp (67–112 kW), depending on the size of the engine.[4][5]
It succeeded the Maserati Tipo 26M, and was itself slowly replaced by the Maserati 6CM around 1936.[6][7]
