Powered by a 4.7-liter V8 Producing 440ps

This model is based on the "Quattroporte S," which appeared as a minor change model last June. The engine is the 4.7-liter V8 also used in the "Quattroporte S," but with tuning such as improved exhaust system efficiency. This tuning boosts the maximum output by 10ps to 440ps.



Furthermore, by altering the program of the 6-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters, even quicker gear changes are now possible. The suspension has also been lowered, and improvements have been made, such as making the single-rate damper suspension system even harder.
With these improvements, it is certain that the performance will surpass that of the base vehicle, the "Quattroporte S," which boasts a 0-100 km/h acceleration of 5.4 seconds and a top speed of 280 km/h.


Exterior features include metallic titanium-finished headlamps, a dark-colored grille with vertical slits, and the trident logo, which effectively uses red and has only been used on past sports models, catching the eye.



The interior, with its leather and Alcantara seats and carbon fiber panels, creates a sporty yet luxurious space.


Maserati announces this "Quattroporte Sport GTS" as a "four-door saloon with driving performance comparable to a true sports car." It can be said that a vehicle possessing both outstanding performance and Maserati's unique luxurious worldview has arrived.



BRAND HISTORY
There are several places in the world known as "sacred grounds for sports cars," but few are as fitting as the province of Modena in Italy. This is because both Ferrari and Maserati, which are under the Fiat umbrella, are located within Modena province. If Maranello is Ferrari's home, then Modena, the provincial capital, is where Maserati hails from.

The trident emblem, a symbol of Neptune's statue which is a symbol of Bologna, signifies that Maserati's history began in Bologna. The foundation was laid by the Maserati brothers, born between 1881 and 1898 in this region. Most of them would become involved in automobiles, with Alfieri Maserati (the third son, also named Alfieri, died shortly after birth) playing a central role. His career began as a racing driver, but after many twists and turns, he established Officine Alfieri Maserati in 1926. Alfieri himself took the wheel of the "Tipo26" bearing the trident and competed in the Targa Florio, winning his debut race with a superb class victory.

In 1929, the "V4" set a world speed record of 246.029 km/h, and the Maserati name became widely known. Maserati continued to etch its name in the history of Grand Prix racing through the exploits of renowned drivers like Tazio Nuvolari. However, in 1937, the owner changed to Adolfo Orsi, and the following year, 1938, the company moved its headquarters to the current location in Modena. From this point until 1957, the company's motorsport activities entered a golden age. The most significant achievement was the F1 series title won by the master driver Juan Manuel Fangio in the "250F" in 1957. Yet, in the same year, Maserati ceased its works activities and solidified its position as a sports car manufacturer with models like the "3500GT" in 1958, the "Ghibli" in 1966, and the "Bora" in 1971.

Today, the tradition of building sports cars is carried on by the two-door coupe "GranTurismo" and the four-door saloon "Quattroporte." They convey to us the charm of Italian sports cars, distinct from those of Ferrari.
