A Chance To Produce New Powerful Maserati Levante

Maserati is trying to make up for its SUVs.

Expect the Levante to have a more powerful variant. According to the Maserati Europe manager, the offering has not been approved yet. However, he has hinted that the Quattroporte GTS’ eight-cylinder 3.8-litre unit might become a foundation for a more powerful variant of the very first SUV from Maserati.

As you know, the engine produces 523 hp and torque of 524 pound-feet in the sedan. Today the S is the quickest variant of the automaker’s SUVs on sale. It reaches 62 mph in 5.2 seconds. Its top speed is 164 mph.

The producer will need time to figure out if it is a viable business case for a better Levante as Pastore has stated the marked for SUVs featuring more than 500 hp is rather small.
