Maserati Quattroporte (2013-)













Maserati's flagship sedan, the Quattroporte, is currently in its sixth generation. For those of you who don't know, Quattroporte means "four doors" in Italian. It is available with two engine options: a 3.0-liter V6 in the S and S Q4 (AWD) producing 404 horses and a 3.8-liter V8 in the GTS producing 523 horses. Each trim level has twin turbos and an eight-speed automatic. The Quattroporte can hit 60 mph from a standstill in the four-second range. The interior is adorned with leather and features Chrysler's Uconnect infotainment system. New features on the Quattroporte include a hands-free trunklid, blind-spot monitoring system, stop-start, Ermenegildo Zegna-endorsed trim packages, and a 900-watt Harmon Kardon audio system or Bowers & Wilkins premium audio system. Pricing for the sixth-gen Maserati Quattroporte starts at $101,700 for the S and up to $143,600 for the GTS. It's not as common or spacious as some of its competitors, but the trident brand's flagship sedan is a fantastic automobile. I would be happier driving and owning a Mercedes-Benz S-class, however. To prevent any confusion, the sixteenth photo in the gallery contains an entry-level Maserati Ghibli in the left lane and not an additional Quattroporte.
