(from Maserati Press
Release) “Maserati stands today at the edge of an unparalleled
strategic and industrial growth that will see our presence in the
world rise to 50,000 units a year by 2015.
New Maserati Quattroporte set to

The New Maserati
“Maserati stands today
at the edge of an unparalleled strategic and industrial growth that
will see our presence in the world rise to 50,000 units a year by
2015. This growth is a challenge for which Maserati has carefully
prepared itself and that we all welcome with anticipation.
It is a growth based on
those values of style, elegance, quality, performance for which
Maserati has been always recognized and praised in almost 100 years
of history. This exciting progression will make the new Maserati a
true global player with two new production sites in two different
continents and a heart solidly planted in Modena, Italy, where our
roots are.
It is a growth that will
be based on three new models entering two new segments of the
automobile market – and it starts with the all-new 2013 Maserati
Quattroporte.”
Harald Wester, Maserati CEO
Maserati Quattroporte: Italian
Design at its Best
“The new Maserati
Quattroporte is a high-performance sports luxury sedan that
reinterprets the design features of classic Maseratis in a
contemporary design language. Its style was born out of the guiding
design principles of Maserati: harmony of shapes, dynamism of lines,
Italian elegance. More generous in size when compared to the
previous model, the new Quattroporte has a design that is at once
graceful and sinuous, fashioned to bring out the sporty nature of
the car.
"Some of the elements
characterizing the previous model have been purposely maintained:
the front grill, the three side vents, the triangular C pillar. At
the same time new style and functional features were introduced: the
strong belt line that runs through the entire side of the car giving
the new Quattroporte a look and feel that is at once muscular and
elegant with frameless doors and three side windows..
"Inside, the design of
the Quattroporte aims at essentiality, stressing the simplicity of
lines and the full functionality of the in-board instrumentation.
Functional elements are blended with soft quality surfaces made of
prestigious woods and refined leathers.”
Lorenzo Ramaciotti, Head
of Maserati Design Center
Maserati Quattroporte: All-New
Next Generation Powertrain
“The innovative Maserati
proprietary engines of the all-new Maserati Quattroporte have all
been designed and developed by Maserati and Ferrari engineers in the
heart of Italy’s motor valley. As a matter of fact, they are going
to be produced in the Ferrari plant in Maranello that has been
synonymous with cutting-edge technology and passion for well over 60
years.
Passion is indeed the
middle name of a whole new generation of Maserati engines that will
equip the all-new Maserati Quattroporte and the models that will
soon follow her on the market. The passion and state-of-the-art
technology that is at the heart of all the new Maserati engines that
will be mounted on the next generation of Maserati products have
produced engines that are not only more powerful than ever, or more
exciting to drive than ever – bust also more eco-friendly than ever
before.”
Paolo Martinelli, Maserati Powertrain Director
Maserati Quattroporte: Key
Technical Features
“Refined technical
solutions, an explicit attention to the most challenging targets in
terms of performance, comfort, efficiency and safety – these are the
key elements of the all-new Maserati Quattroporte.
Maserati engineers have
worked - with a competence matched only by their passion – in
chassis designing and engineering, weight reduction, ergonomic
enhancement to develop a car capable of fitting different powertrain
architectures and transmission configurations for the most diverse
driving conditions but always maintaining Maserati’s trademark
best-in-class driving comfort.
The results is the all-new Maserati Quattroporte, a luxury sports
sedan that reaches new heights in terms of performance and handling,
driving enjoyment as well as respect of the world we live in: the
best performance ever in the long history of Maserati’s four-door
flagship sedan are matched by the unprecedented success in the quest
for an eco-friendly automobile. All this done, of course, as you may
expect from Maserati, in the spirit of the most severe active and
passive safety conditions.”
