Here at Jim Butler Maserati of St. Louis, we believe that a great contender in the SUV world would be the 2022 Maserati Levante! It instinctively breathes every trait one would want from a well-appearing and high-performing model. This midsize luxury SUV that turns out to be a very family-friendly vehicle provides a choice of two turbocharged Ferrari-designed engines. The SUV will no doubt captivate your eye with its unique sound, look, and personality which will resonate with anyone seeking a true high-performance SUV model.

The Levante set begins with the base GT model and then climbs up to the Modena, Modena S, and high-performance Trofeo line. The interior of the Maserati Levante can be outfitted with features like available Zegna silk and Pieno Fiore leather and a pair of Ferrari-designed engines residing beneath the hood begin their prowess with the 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 that diligently offers up 345 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque.

The Levante Modena employs a more powerful 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 that makes 424 horsepower and 428 lb-ft of torque. The V8 comes out the end of the tunnel cranking out 550 horsepower and 538 lb-ft of torque, with the Trofeos’ engine output upped by another valuable 30 horses. We’d also recommend the Driver Assistance Package which includes driving assist, adaptive cruise control with stop and go, forward-collision warning, and active blind-spot assist. Additional safety features on hand to consistently provide the eagle’s eye are active lane-keep assist, traffic-sign recognition, surround-view camera, autonomous emergency braking, and pedestrian recognition.

The GT AWD offers up a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 with 345 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque, 8-speed automatic transmission with AWD, and 20-inch Efesto aluminum wheels. You’ll also enjoy the addition of 20-inch Efesto aluminum wheels, Matte-silver brake calipers, limited-slip differential, adaptive air suspension, leather interior, and the audiophile’s ultimate addition of 8-speaker Maserati Audio powered with 280 poised watts.

The Levante Trofeo AWD brandishes the 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8 with 580 hp and 538 lb-ft of torque, and 21-inch staggered Antero wheels, gloss-red brake calipers and Trofeo vented performance hood. It also includes carbon-fiber front splitter, grille blades, side skirts, and rear exhaust-surround. There is the signature Italian flag situated on the B-pillar, and audio upgrade in the form of a Bowers and Wilkins ultra-premium audio system with 1,280 watts and 17 speakers. We don’t need to remind anyone that this is one of the only SUVs in existence with the thrilling addition of launch control. Flipping the switch is always bound to provide the punchiest and most aggressive start while holding your foot on the pedal off the line one could ever imagine!
