Following the highly successful launch of the Quattroporte at the Detroit motorshow in January, and that of the Ghibli at the Shanghai show in mid-April, Maserati is expanding its range once again with the introduction of the Quattroporte diesel.
The 3.0 litre turbo diesel V6 engine delivers 275 horsepower (a second version for the Italian market puts out 250 HP) with 600 Nm of torque, taking the Maserati Quattroporte to a top speed of 250 km/h (240 km/h for the 250 HP version) and pushing it from 0 to 100 in only 6.4 seconds (6.8 seconds for the 250 HP version).
An exclusive concept car signed by Zegna is also making its first appearance alongside the new diesel. The Zegna version will feature an exclusive colour scheme, special mirror polished rims on tone and prestigious interiors upholstered in fabrics made by the famous Italian fashion house.
Maserati's stand at Frankfurt will also be graced by the complete Ghibli range, making its European debut, and by the four seater GranTurismo MC Stradale first unveiled at the Geneva motorshow in March.
