New-look Maserati Quattroporte
Italian luxury car maker Maserati has given the Quattroporte a new look.
The front of the car has received a new grille with its vertical slats, is reminiscent of the GranTurismo, while the front and rear light units are also updated, and feature LEDs.
The side has been revamped with under door moulding is more noticeable, with a line that runs into that of the new bumpers, which have a wider protective band and more pronounced rear styling.
Maserati has given the door mirrors a more more dynamic shape making them more streamlined which will in turn reduce drag.
The car’s range of navigation systems has been fully updated, now comprising the New Maserati Multimedia System.
Two new shades of leather, Marrone Corniola (brown) and Sabbia (sand), replaces the beige which was previously in the range, and will debut on the Quattroporte S and Quattroporte respectively.
The former is fitted with the familiar 4.2 litre 400 hp V8 engine, while the latter adopts the new 4.7 litre 430 hp V8 recently introduced on the GranTurismo S, with a different specification.
Both cars feature the 6-speed automatic transmission developed in association with ZF.
The new Quattroporte and Quattroporte S will be on sale in the UK from October.
