Manufacturer Press Release
|
The big Italian saloon made a triumphant return to the world of the flagship car, in the shape of the Maserati Quattroporte which introduced innovative new concepts to this highly conservative sector.
Clothed in an elegantly-designed Pininfarina body, the saloon is a modern take on the original Maserati Quattroporte concept of marrying genuine sportiness with space and comfort in a typically sophisticated Trident marque package.
The Maserati Quattroporte offers today what the first Frua-designed Quattroporte surprised clients with in 1963: the inimitable Trident style, a sophisticated interior awash with full-grain leather and luxury woods, plus a spirited temperament its elegantly understated exterior doesn¡Ë¢çE¢®Ec?t even hint at.
The Quattroporte, which debuted on September 9, 2003 at the Frankfurt Motor Show, lives up to every expectation drivers might have of such a twin-souled car: it has the space and dimensions of a limousine yet the irresistible, confident character of a blistering GT.
This is a car that can be personalised right down to the last detail to suit the client, using, of course, the very best of Maserati¡Ë¢çE¢®Ec?s trademark Italian taste and design. It also revolutionises the classic architecture of the big saloon, thanks to two factors: the positioning of the engine behind the front axle and the use of the sports-derived Transaxle rear-mounted gearbox in unit with the differential. The result: optimal weight distribution for guaranteed maximum efficiency. The sophisticated electro-hydraulic gearbox is fully automatic, but allows the driver to opt for a sportier change by selecting the manual setting and using the steering wheel-mounted paddle shift. The new Quattroporte also boasts some impressive vital statistics.
There is also a practically endless array of personalisation options available, including 15 bodywork colours, three types of wood (rosewood, mahogany and briarwood), 10 shades of leather and a wide range of specific optionals.
