Located in Grugliasco, Italy, the Giovanni Agnelli plant is extremely important for a once troubled Maserati. Until recently, the iconic manufacturer was struggling to sell its vehicles, but nowadays, Maserati beats big brother Ferrari in operational profit, a feat which is worthy of some slow claps.
Thanks to the reintroduction of the Ghibli, the House of the Trident is more appealing than ever. Produced at Giovanni Agnelli along with the roomier Quattroporte, the M157-gen Ghibli helped Maserati move the most vehicles ever in a year thanks to its affordability and what it boasts with.
Available in rear-wheel or all-wheel drive guise with twin-turbo V6 power in either petrol or diesel flavour, the nameplate is offered as standard with an eight-speed automatic developed by ZF. Needless to say, it’s way more interesting than those usual E-segment suspects: BMW 5 Series, Audi A6 and the Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
Still, if you want the best Maserati has to offer, you can’t go higher than the larger Quattroporte, which is rivaling the BMW 7 Series, Audi A8 and Mercedes S-Class.
And guess what – car number 50,000 built at Avv. Giovanni Agnelli is an achingly gorgeous Maserati Quattroporte S Q4, a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6-powered luxury saloon that can blitz to 62 mph (100 km/h) in a mere 4.9 seconds thanks to 410 horsepower and a hefty 550 Nm (406 lb-ft) of torque sent to all four wheels. Not bad for a vehicle designed for company execs or VIPs to be chauffered around in.
Maserati achieved this milestone in just 22 months since the factory was inaugurated. Car #50,000, the protagonist in the days of Maserati’s centenary, is painted in the new Grigio Maratea, with red and black colors for interior upholstery. The House of the Trident disclosed that this Quattoporte S Q4 was built for a customer that lives in the United States. Whoever you are, we recommend to enjoy it responsably!
This bad boy can bite, like you can find out in our review of the mad Quattroporte GTS.
