Here, finally officially unveiled the long-awaited SUV Maserati - called Levante.
According to unofficial information in question Levante will initially be offered with a petrol 3.0-liter V6 with the full resources of 350 hp Thanks to them, the sports SUV will accelerate from 0 to 100 km / h in 6.3 seconds before developing a maximum 243 km / h. Italians would probably bet on diesel because there are rumors again for the 3.0-liter V6 with 275 hp The hybrid version has not yet been ruled out.
Maserati did reveal some technical details too. For instance, Levante's chassis has been designed to combine an excellent on-road performance, unmatched handling (even on very low-grip surfaces) and an outstanding off-road performance and ride. The company also says that the SUV will be equipped with a high level of content as standard like a sophisticated electronic suspension with controlled damping and air springs "Q4" intelligent all-wheel drive and 8-speed automatic transmission.
Specifics have been scarce when it comes to power units, but we managed to get the information that Levante will be driven by both petrol and diesel engines, which will be Euro6-compliant. There has been nothing said about the interior, nor any pictures shown. However, we do expect this to happen a few days ahead of the Geneva Motor Show, so stay tuned.
Maserati Levante is going to be built at the Mirafiori plant in Turin. It will be officially launched onto the market this spring (only in Europe). Global market premier is to follow later this year.
