Eight years on the market - for a long time. Even for a brand like Maserati sports car and Quattroporte. However, this will soon change, as the Italian automaker is in the final stage of the development of next-generation Quattroporte, which first hit the camera lens without the clumsy plastic camouflage, like the previous prototypes. The current prototype has received color zebra.
The new model will grow in size in comparison with the current Quattroporte, which has a length of 5097 mm, width 1895 mm, height 1438 mm, and its overall shape and style will not be a huge difference compared to its predecessor.
Its design will include elements of the latest products Maserati, including the GranTurismo and GrandCabrio, especially the front and rear.
Conflicting reports on possible options for transmission suggests that the new Quattroporte will get to choose the updated version of the current model of the atmospheric engine V8, as well as two new turbocharged petrol engine V6 and V8.
There are also rumors that Maserati has chosen the Detroit Motor Show in 2013 for the world premiere of its flagship model.
