Maserati unveiled the first Levante built around a V8 engine at the New York International Auto Show.
The Levante Trofeo is the ultimate Maserati of SUVs, capable of accelerating from 0-60 mph in just 3.7 seconds and reaching a top speed of over 187 mph.
It is equipped with one of the most powerful engines ever fitted in a Maserati.
A 3.8-litre Twin Turbo V8 engine that has been engineered to perfectly mate with the Q4 Intelligent All-Wheel Drive System and delivers an astounding 590 hp at 6,250 rpm and 538 lb.-ft. (730 Nm) of peak torque at 2,250 – 5,000 rpm. The engine boasts the highest output per litre (156 hp/litre) of any Maserati powerplant ever produced and, like all Maserati petrol engines, is assembled by Ferrari in Maranello, Italy. The chassis of the fastest Levante ever has been tuned to handle the higher power output and provides an exhilarating driving experience with no compromise in terms of comfort.
