Maserati is adding even more performance to its Levante range with the introduction of the GTS and Trofeo models.

The 3.8-litre eight-cylinder twin turbo engine of the Levante GTS has been re-engineered to work with the Q4 Intelligent all-wheel drive and retuned to deliver 410kW at 6,250 rpm and 730 Nm peak torque between 2,500 and 5,000 rpm. The Levante GTS surges from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds and has a top speed of over 292 km/h.

The Levante Trofeo is the fastest in the line up, as it is driven by one of the most powerful engines ever installed in a Maserati: the 3,799 cc V8 Twin Turbo with Q4 Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system delivers a massive 440kW at 6,250 rpm, with a peak torque of 730 Nm at 2,250 rpm. The Levante Trofeo powers from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.9 seconds and has a top speed of over 300 km/h. Like all Maserati petrol engines, this V8 is produced by Ferrari in Maranello.

 

It never felt like it was working hard, and after 2 400 kilometres, neither did I.
