As the wreaths are hung snugly and the skyline is illuminated brilliantly here at Jim Butler Maserati of St Louis, it’s an ideal time to reflect upon the reasons why we are so excited about present and incoming models. Looking to the future while embracing our current offerings, we came up with 5 traits that have long defined our cars and cutting-edge SUVs.
The Chiming Bells Praising Twin Turbo:
Many of today’s models are decidedly basic and seem to have a bit of trouble in the pickup department thanks to the presence of turbo four-cylinders. Back in 1982, the Maserati Biturbo was the first car with twin turbochargers and was available as a sedan, convertible, or coupe. This early example of just how ferocious and well-defined technology could make things is still heralded as one of the bestselling Maserati’s of all time. Twin turbochargers man the job of increasing air and fuel intake, making the ride punchier and excitingly aggressive.
The Quattroporte’s Fine Framework:
Many purists will claim that the sports sedan arrive later than the original Quattroporte and was derived from rival BMW. the Maserati Quattroporte was responsible for introducing the framework, and it was our first sedan with series one production taking place in 1963. It was derived from an era that chose comfort over exciting performance and was incredibly memorable and so very high above par. Residing as the fastest 4 door of its time, it was famous for changing traditional sedan values from the ground up.
The Resilient and Raucous V6:
The arrival of the MC20 will provide an exhilarating chance for many seasoned drivers to enjoy the chops and presence of the Nettuno V6. It boasts the characteristic additions of a pre-combustion chamber and no balance shaft and is designed for pure power and performance during a time when efficiency is hailed. The Nettuno blasts the carbon fiber masterpiece up to 60 mph in just 2.7 seconds, which is as good as many competing V8s present in the ring. A testament to everything fantastic that the future will bring in the supercar realm, it holds true to seasoned roots instead of bowing to consistent pressure.
GT Marvels + Pushing Grand Touring Boundaries:
The GranTurismo Folgore begins production next year and will exist as the first all-electric and breathtaking grand touring coupe. In the past, GT model cars have been extremely luxurious and have possessed legendary handling traits. Now in creation is an electric car that favors the choosier and refined driver, and is on track to boast 760 horsepower and a salacious top speed of 200 mph. Other brands are attempting to imitate this gem in the making, but most likely will not have chance at comparing.
An SUV Curated for the Elemental Enthusiast:
The Levante Trofeo boasts the twin-turbo V8 sourced by no less than the discerning and legendary Ferrari. It valiantly cranks out 590 horsepower and 538 lb-ft of torque, which is more than enough to surpass the usual SUV offering. It will ignite pavement up to 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds and has enough space to handle multiple Home Depot runs if needed. Ideal for the domesticated commuter who is it the place in life where they will compensate just an inch, this model will no doubt captivate many owners and continue a tradition of esteemed excellence.
