The Maserati Levante S Places More Emphasis on an Ultra Luxurious Experience

Hot off its world premiere at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Maserati Levante S has now rolled into KL. Two models, the GranLusso and GranSport were introduced during a launch event held at Desa Park City, Kuala Lumpur.

Fans will be treated to a new range of hi-tech features, including electric power steering and the addition of new active functions that enables drivers to navigate all-terrain adventures with greater ease.

Engine

The V6 engine’s specific torque of 194 Nm per litre is the best in the luxury SUV class, as is its specific power (144hp/l). The Levante S accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.2 seconds and has a top speed of 264 km/h. Its 430 hp engine is on par with its competitors in terms of fuel consumption, with 10.9 l/100 km on the NEDC test cycle, and CO2 emissions (253 g/km).

Innovation

The new evolution of the marque’s first SUV has been engineered to excite with the Maserati twin-turbo V6 engine featuring the latest Gasoline Direct Injection (GDI) technology at its core. The engine was designed by Maserati Powertrain, in conjunction with the Ferrari Powertrain development team and is both powerful and eco-friendly, thanks to the Auto Start-Stop function.

Standard 12-way power comfort seats, a Harman Kardon Sound System, power-adjustable steering wheel, illuminated door sills, parking sensors, navigation system and new Soft Close Doors are included.
