Maserati Says Goodbye to Its V8 Engine in the Quattroporte with a New Special Edition

A Trident enthusiast receives the latest Maserati Quattroporte equipped with a V8 engine, accompanied by a personalized MC20. A final tribute to this iconic engine.

The latest Quattroporte V8: a special edition for a unique customer

Maserati has delivered the last V8-powered Quattroporte to a US customer, a major biomedical contractor. The model, dubbed the Quattroporte Gran Finale, marks the end of an era for the Italian brand.

The Quattroporte Gran Finale features an exclusive Azul Nobile paint finish and carbon fibre details. Aluminium brake calipers and a unique chassis number, 999999, reinforce its exclusive character. The Ferrari-sourced 3.8-litre V8 twin-turbo engine develops 572 hp and 730 Nm of torque.

A luxurious and unique interior for the Gran Finale

The interior of the Quattroporte Gran Finale is distinguished by its exclusive finishes. The steering wheel and door handles are trimmed in wood, while the black leather door panels contrast with the black stitching and toasted-coloured trim. The centre console and door sills feature the โ€œGrand Finaleโ€ emblem, underlining the exclusivity of the model.

The 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 engine produces 572 hp, making this Quattroporte the last of its kind before the arrival of electric successors. This model is a real collector's item for Maserati enthusiasts.

The Maserati MC20 Iris: a tailor-made customization

In addition to the Quattroporte Gran Finale, the customer also received a customized Maserati MC20, named โ€œIrisโ€. This MC20 is distinguished by its AI Aqua Rainbow paint with white stripes, chosen specifically by the customer.

The interior of the MC20 Iris reflects this customization with stitching and leather inserts matching the exterior paint. The 3.0-liter Nettuno twin-turbo V6 engine, developing 621 HP, ensures impressive performance for this unique supercar.

A tribute to Maserati's V8 engine

The end of production of the V8 engine in the Quattroporte marks a turning point for Maserati. This engine, a symbol of power and performance, has helped shape the image of the Trident brand. The Quattroporte Gran Finale is a fitting tribute to this legendary engine, combining luxury, exclusivity and top-level performance.

The future of Maserati under Stellantis

Carlos Tavares, CEO of Stellantis, has made strategic decisions for the future of Maserati. The transition to electrification and sustainable innovation is at the heart of this new direction. The end of the V8 engine in the Quattroporte is part of this strategy, paving the way for future electric models.

The Maserati Fuoriserie personalisation programme plays a key role in this transition, allowing customers to create unique and exclusive vehicles. Special editions such as the Quattroporte Gran Finale and the MC20 Iris are perfect examples of this approach.

The Maserati Quattroporte: an icon of Italian elegance

The Maserati Quattroporte embodies Italian elegance and performance. With its harmonious design, dynamic lines and interior luxury, it remains an iconic model of the brand.

The sixth generation of the Quattroporte combines traditional elements with modern innovations. The imposing grille, side air intakes and triangular C-pillar are distinctive features, while the aggressive profile and frameless doors add a contemporary touch.

Technology and comfort on board the Quattroporte

The interior of the Quattroporte offers a perfect blend of technology and comfort. The 'Maserati Touch Control' system, adjustable pedals, rear view camera and the 'Bowers & Wilkins' audio system with fifteen speakers guarantee an exceptional driving experience.

The new engines, developed by 'Maserati Powertrain' and manufactured by Ferrari, offer remarkable performance. The 3.8-litre V8 Twin Turbo engine delivers 530 hp, making the Quattroporte the most powerful luxury sedan in its class. The 3.0-litre V6 Twin Turbo, meanwhile, produces 410 hp with a top speed of 285 km/h.

Maserati MC20: innovation at the service of performance

The Maserati MC20 represents the future of the brand with its aerodynamic design and its 630 HP V6 Nettuno engine. This supercar can reach 100 km/h in less than 2.9 seconds and a maximum speed of 325 km/h, thanks to its lightness and aerodynamic efficiency.

The MC20โ€™s interior is designed with the driver in mind, with intuitive controls and generous use of carbon fibre. The Nettuno propulsion system, developed entirely by Maserati, is a technological feat, delivering unrivalled performance.

Maserati is embarking on a new era, combining its heritage with bold innovations to continue to captivate sports car enthusiasts around the world. The Quattroporte Gran Finale and MC20 Iris are just the beginning of this exciting transformation.
