Maserati Quattroporte 3.8 V8 (2013) CAR review

3.5

Georg Kacher, 17 January 2013 09:00

The new Maserati Quattorporte goes on UK sale in June 2013, priced from around £110,000. Is the Italian Jax XJ and Audi A8 rival worth it? We've driven the flagship 3.8-litre bi-turbo V8 to find out. When the covers are pulled off the new Quattroporte, what hits you immediately is the sheer size of the thing. Next to this frame-filling statement on wheels, ...

Maserati Grancabrio Sport (2011) CAR review

Years ago, whilst attending an advertising copywriting course, I recall being warned that any attempt to dub any product ‘The Art of….’ would result in instant dismissal. Happily, I was spared this indignity, shortly thereafter being summarily ousted, instead, for suggesting that the diamond merchants, Prestons of Bolton, might benefit from the strap line: ‘Give her one and she’ll let ...

Maserati Granturismo S Automatic (2009) CAR review

3.5

Tim Pollard, 09 May 2009 09:16

Maserati’s Granturismo has always tugged at our heartstrings, but it’s been hamstrung by an incomplete line-up of engines and transmissions. Not any more. We’ve just driven the final model to complete the Granturismo range – the new S Automatic. That means the marriage of the enlarged 4.7-litre V8 to the full torque converter auto gearbox.What it does at a stroke ...

Maserati Granturismo S (2008) CAR review

3.5

Ben Barry, 15 May 2008 10:22

With 433bhp, the Maserati Granturismo S is the most powerful production Maserati ever built, limited-edition MC12 not included. Shown at the Geneva show a year on from the original Granturismo unveil and launched at Maser’s Modena HQ yesterday, it promises to set right the base car’s biggest flaw: that it doesn’t have enough power. The S is expected to account ...

Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT S (2007) CAR review

3.5

Richard Aucock, 12 November 2007 01:56

Maserati model names confuse me. What’s this Sport GT S all about? According to chief engineer Paul Fickers, it’s the car the Quattroporte always should have been. There are six Quattroporte variants – three with a semi-auto, three with a full auto – and it’s the ‘proper’ auto Sport GT S that’s expected to now form the majority of sales. ...

Maserati Granturismo (2007) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 19 July 2007 07:20

Wow! Indeed. Striking stuff isn’t it? From certain angles it’s truly sensational, particularly aspects like the taper of the nose, the A6GCS-style grille and the way the sills pinch and roll under the car to give a beautiful waisted look. But other details don’t work so well. Maserati is proud that the rear lights use the same LED technology that ...

Maserati Quattroporte Automatica (2007) CAR review

Ben Oliver, 19 January 2007 11:30

An auto box in a big luxury saloon? That’s hardly news… It is for Maserati. To mark the Quattroporte out as a very different, more sporting proposition to its mainly German rivals, it has only been offered with the Duo Select automated manual until now. Although it has an auto mode, it still uses a clutch and will never be ...

Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT (2006) CAR review

3.5

Chris Chilton, 28 July 2006 12:11

Sport GT? Explain please? Maserati has expanded its big saloon range, adding two new models to sit alongside the regular Quattroporte: the luxury-angled Executive GT and the performance-focused Sport GT. The Executive gets a chrome-finished grille and 19" rims, Allegro Vanden Plas-influenced retractable wood tables and even privacy curtains. I've never really bought into the privacy curtain craze. Indeed. So ...
