2016
Maserati Ghibli and Quattroporte
Maserati
has taken the wraps off the 2016 Ghibli and Quattroporte. Currently on display
at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the updated sedans feature new Euro6 petrol engines
with start / stop technology. Their performance specifications remain unchanged
but the new engines are up to 12% more fuel-efficient than their predecessors.
Diesel
variants aren't left out either as they have been equipped with AdBlue
technology. Despite this, the company
says performance, emissions and fuel-economy numbers remain unchanged.
Besides
the updated engines, the 2016 Ghibli and Quattroporte gain a variety of new
options including Blind Spot Alert, Rear Cross Path (which alerts drivers to
oncoming vehicles when reversing out of a parking spot) and a power-operated
trunk which can be opened or closed by simply moving your foot underneath the
rear bumper. Other updates include Siri
compatibility, a new 10-speaker Harman Kardon audio system (optional on the
Ghibli and standard on the Quattroporte) and an improved Bowers & Wilkins
premium audio system.
