GRAND-SCALE ICON
In 1963, Maserati made a remarkably bold move, introducing the first ever luxury sports sedan.
It took a successful V8 motor racing engine, fitted it to a beautifully designed luxury sedan and
then proudly presented its creation to the world. The car was called the Quattroporte – and the
reception at the Turin Motor Show was rapturous. The excitement was understandable. Until
then, along with its formidable motor sport pedigree, Maserati was renowned for its glamorous
coupés and spyders. This was new. This was the fastest sedan in the world at that time.
The Quattroporte met a particular need for an exclusive group of discerning motorists. Europe’s
emerging network of motorways opened up thrilling worlds of possibility when it came to longdistance travel. With this Maserati, they could all be embraced – at high speeds, in spacious
comfort and in breathtaking Italian style. Fast forward to the 2019 Maserati Quattroporte and
the principles remain much the same. The Quattroporte offers huge, race-bred power from
Ferrari-built V8 and V6 petrol engines, along with a mighty V6 turbodiesel. A long wheelbase
ensures abundant, elegantly crafted space. Every comfort and convenience is taken care of,
from hand-stitched premium Italian Pieno Fiore natural leather to cutting-edge driving assistance
systems. And the sculpted styling, undeniably aggressive yet eternally graceful, has all the
evocative power you would expect from Maserati. As Maserati continues to shape the future
of luxury grand touring, some things clearly never change.

A history of character
The
TRUE
SPIRIT OF MASERATI
The Maserati Quattroporte is part of a story that dates back over 100 years. It’s a story of endurance.
Of embracing challenge. Of going the distance and winning. And doing it all in audacious Italian style.
Maserati officially opened for business in 1914 at number 1 Via de’ Pepoli in Bologna. But the wheels
were in motion long before that. In 1900, Rodolfo Maserati’s eldest son Carlo built a single-cylinder
engine and fitted it to a bicycle. He then raced it to victory in a punishing, long-distance rally in northern
Italy. Carlo was just 17. A short while later, the intrepid youngster designed another engine and fitted
it to a wooden car chassis. This, arguably, was the world’s first Maserati vehicle. The Maserati drive to
innovate and passion for speed made the transition into elite motor sport inevitable. It was a move that
reaped countless rewards on the world stage. Here are just a few of the many historic successes: in 1926,
Alfieri Maserati drove the Maserati Tipo 26 to victory in its first ever race – the Targa Florio in the
mountains of Sicily. In 1939, Wilbur Shaw won the Indianapolis 500 at the wheel of the Maserati ‘Boyle
Special’ 8 CTF at an average speed of over 185 km/h. He repeated this incredible feat the following year,
making Maserati the only European manufacturer to win the Indy 500 twice. In the late 1940s, Maserati
took a luxurious turn by creating the A6 1500 production grand tourer. This was built in our current
home in Modena and featured sensuous Pininfarina coachwork. The convertible A6G Frua Spyder soon
followed. Such power and performance had never been so beautifully packaged – opening up new
worlds of long-distance possibilities in the process. Since then, all Maserati production models have
followed this unique formula, offering race-bred performance, captivating Italian design and all the
luxuries and comfort you could want in a prestigious grand tourer. Everything you would be right
to expect from the Maserati Quattroporte.

Formidable
EXCLUSIVITY
Luxury, scale and space meet phenomenal dynamic capabilities in the Maserati Quattroporte – and it’s
all perfectly expressed by its stately yet dynamically intense exterior.
The front is dominated by the grille bearing the iconic Trident. Inspired by the Alfieri concept, its deepcut design creates a predatory shark-nose effect. The imposing presence is brought into even sharper
focus by stylish new Full-LED Adaptive headlights. Other striking details include triple air vents in the wings,
the timeless Saetta logo in the C-pillars and frameless windows. To the rear, quad chrome tailpipes
signpost the continent-crossing power.
Maserati did not achieve the esteemed reputation it enjoys today by resting on its laurels. Always looking
for improvement, new enhancements for the 2019 Quattroporte versions include an updated choice of
exterior paint colours and alloy wheels.
14
Sophisticated
NEW EXTERIOR SHADES
To enhance your paint options as well as the eye-catching allure of Quattroporte, two striking new
shades have recently been added to refresh the exterior colour palette: Rosso Potente and Blu Nobile.
Each reflects a different side of the Maserati personality, yet both capture the boldness and sophistication
for which the Trident is renowned.
16
ROSSO POTENTE TRI-COAT PAINT
Inspired by the iconic colour Rosso Magma − launched to
commemorate the Maserati centenary − the new Rosso Potente
is a statement colour created to celebrate the racing heritage
of Italian sports cars. Just one glimpse of this bold hue brings
to mind the glamour of circuits such as Monte Carlo and the
black and white of the chequered flag sweeping victoriously
overhead. As the name would suggest, this is a powerful red;
one that overshadows everything else on the road. Rich and
captivating, demanding both respect and attention, this dramatic
colour is as intoxicating as power itself.
BLU NOBILE TRI-COAT PAINT
Deep, dark blue with sparkling glass flakes that glisten when
exposed to sunlight and enhance the unique design of the
Quattroporte. Shimmering like the tips of the waves in the
rolling ocean, this is not so much a colour as an enriching visual
experience that transforms each time the car flashes past. Ever
since the times of the ancient Egyptians, blue has been blessed
with noble connotations, standing for royalty and favoured by
rulers. This imperious shade of blue reflects these aristocratic
traditions and perfectly complements the effortlessly flowing
lines of the Quattroporte.

INTERIORS
Unique
VITALITY
The interior of the Maserati Quattroporte is a profoundly engaging place to be – on two levels. On the
one hand, there is the awareness and the experience of massive performance. On the other, there’s
meticulously crafted comfort, technological convenience and peerless Italian style. Here are just a few
signature details. The Trident is seen on the headrests and the centre of the steering wheel. The seats,
upper dashboard and armrests are finished in fine leather, while detailing in Radica open-pore wood
provides a graceful contrast. The front seats feature 12-way power adjustment and heating, while a
memory function reconfigures the driver’s seat, steering wheel and door mirror positions to precise
personal settings. There is also an advanced 8.4” infotainment system and, as standard, an Air Quality
Sensor. Fresh enhancements for 2019 models include an ergonomic two-lane gear lever, the option
of exceptionally soft and durable Pieno Fiore natural leather, along with a new choice of lavish interior
trims. In the rear, the Quattroporte is appointed with 60:40 split-folding leather rear seats for three people
plus a central armrest offering storage, a USB point and a 12V socket. Two new ashtrays, located in the rear
door panel pockets, provide the finishing touch. In short, every personal need is met – and then exceeded.

New
inTERIOR TRIMS
The purposeful ambience of the cabin is another aspect that creates a strong point of difference for Maserati. Two lavish new interior
trims add to the appeal of this sanctuary for the driver, and further increase the options for personalisation.
HIGH-GLOSS CARBON FIBRE TWILL
Developed to emphasise the sporty nature of Maserati, this new
trim has a glossy top coat that presents a textured 3D look and
adds further exclusivity to the cabin. Every car is completely
unique as the carbon pattern is real, ensuring that it will be
slightly different every single time. The other beauty of carbon is
its extraordinary natural strength, which prevents the trim from
marking and protects the integrity of the Quattroporte interior.
HIGH-GLOSS ROVERE VENEER
As with all other new Maserati trims, this complex veneer took
around a year to develop from original concept to finished
product. It is a combination of three different woods layered
and then crafted by artisans in Italy. The tree bearing the Rovere
wood is the symbol of one of the most powerful Italian families,
and it is the fine stripes and glossy top coat that give this trim
its highly distinctive appearance.

Lusso
LUXURY ON ANOTHER LEVEL
For those who prefer still more in the way of luxury from their Maserati Quattroporte, there’s the
GranLusso trim. Exclusive exterior refinements include a discreet front spoiler, chrome bumper inserts,
body-coloured side skirts and GranLusso badges on the wings. There are also impressive 20” Mercurio
light alloy wheels with brake calipers in black.

Mulberry
SILK. BY ERMENEGILDO ZEGNA
The Quattroporte GranLusso is crafted for individuals who desire higher levels of luxury. Which is why
this model features a remarkably exclusive interior, styled and crafted by Ermenegildo Zegna, one of
Italy’s most celebrated fashion designer brands. The finest leathers are combined with Zegna’s mulberry
silk inserts on the seats, door panels, headlining and light fixture. The silk is embellished with a handstitched micro-chevron pattern, while the seating features a central silk insert with a macro-chevron
weave. All this is available in three combinations of leather and silk with contrast stitching. Other
GranLusso cabin refinements include a wood and leather steering wheel, wood trim, power foot pedals,
a power rear sunblind, four-zone climate control and heated rear seats.

SHARPER SPORTING FOCUS
Another option with the Maserati Quattroporte is the GranSport trim, which focuses more
squarely on dynamic style. This features boldly sculpted angles for the central front and side
intakes, and a lower section equipped with aerodynamic splitters. The centre spoiler and side
inserts, meanwhile, are finished in Black Piano. The Quattroporte GTS GranSport increases the
overt sporting demeanour with a new specific front grille and side skirts.
The stretched side profile, with its GranSport badging, is yet more impactful thanks to sweeping side
skirts and 21” alloy wheels with red brake calipers. And to the rear, a low-set extractor is again
finished in Black Piano. The GranSport is also offered with the optional Exterior Carbon Package.
This features carbon finishing for the exterior door mirrors, door handles and B-pillar cover, plus
the profile of the front bumper.

The
ATHLETE WITHIN
For even more sporting character inside the Maserati Quattroporte, the GranSport trim offers front and
rear Sport seats in leather, firmly sculpted for optimal support during even the most spirited drive.
The Sport steering wheel in leather and long gearshift panels in aluminium offer precise control.
And high-gloss Black Piano wood trim on the dashboard along with stainless steel Sport pedals complete
an inspiring picture. There is also the option of an Interior Carbon Package. This adds lightweight, tactile
carbon finishing to the Sport steering wheel, gearshift paddles, doorsills and interior trim.

GTS
Quattroporte
THE POWER OF EXCLUSIVITY
GTS stands for GranTurismo Sport, representing a level of performance experienced by only a
lucky few. This superiority is clear for all to see on the Quattroporte GTS, thanks to its menacing
grille and side skirts. Unique to this version, they create an imposing presence on the road –
and are a clear declaration of intent.
For although every Maserati road car achieves a perfect balance between performance and
luxury, the power is even more pronounced with the GTS. This is due to its formidable 3.8-litre
V8 engine, which effortlessly pushes the car from 0-100 km/h in just 4.7 seconds, surging on to
a top speed of 310 km/h.
And whether you’re accelerating away from a mountain bend or responding to an invitation
from a long, open road, you will sense the empowerment that comes from the additional horse
power at your disposal. Subtle, yet unmistakable.
Quattroporte GTS is available either with the GranSport (as featured) or GranLusso trim options.
E
ENGINES
Power
PLAY
A central offering of all Maserati vehicles is the ability to cover long distances at dynamic yet refined high speed. With the Quattroporte,
that power comes from a choice of two mighty petrol engines – hand-assembled by Ferrari in Maranello – and one diesel.
The Quattroporte offers a combination of inspirational, highcapacity power and high-end business-like intelligence. So while
it performs like a track-ready supercar, it’s also remarkably
efficient. As for the unmistakable Maserati engine note, exhaust
system bypass valves ensure that it’s delivered to full effect.
With Sport mode active – which also sharpens the vehicle’s
handling – the valves open, providing the shortest, highestenergy route for the exhaust gases. The result is optimised
engine performance and that resonant, spine-tingling sound.
With the diesel, the Maserati Active Sound system underscores
the most rousing tones and modulates them according to driving
style. And when the driver presses the Sport button, the vocal
performance becomes even more dynamically forceful.
275 CV V6 TURBODIESEL
The turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 Common Rail fuel injection in
the Maserati Quattroporte diesel offers a uniquely rewarding
combination of massive power, long-distance refinement and
impressive efficiency. Developing class-leading output of 275 CV
at 4,000 rpm and a mighty 600 Nm of torque between 2,000
and 2,600 rpm, the engine takes the Quattroporte from zero
to 100 km/h in 6.4 seconds before going on to top speed of
252 km/h. Combined fuel consumption is between 7.3 and
7.5 litres per 100 km and CO2 emissions are just 191-198 g/km.
48
430 CV V6
The Quattroporte S and S Q4 feature the most powerful version
of the V6. Maximum output has been raised to 430 CV and is
delivered at 5,750 rpm. Peak torque of 580 Nm is on tap between
2,250 and 4,000 rpm. The Quattroporte S dispatches the sprint
from 0-100 km/h in 5.0 seconds, while the S Q4 achieves
4.8 seconds. Both share a top speed of 288 km/h. Combined
fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions for the S version are
9.6 litres/100 km and 223 g/km. The need-to-know numbers
for the S Q4 are 11.9-12.0 litres/100 km and between 275
and 278 g/km.
530 CV V8
The flagship Quattroporte engine is fitted to the GTS version.
This is a magnificent 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8, developing output
of 530 CV at 6,500-6,800 rpm. Torque is equally impressive at
710 Nm, available between 2,250 and 3,500 rpm in overboost
mode. The GTS reaches 100 km/h from a standing start in a
breathtaking 4.7 seconds and powers to a top speed of
310 km/h. Combined fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are
10.7 litres/100 km and 250 g/km.

T
TECHNOLOGY
Oneto- one
ENGAGEMENT
The sophisticated ZF eight-speed automatic transmission in the Quattroporte puts a vast world of possibilities in the palm of your hand –
and, if tempted, your fingertips.
Now with a new two-lane gear lever featuring a dedicated Park
button, the transmission uses auto-adaptive software to modify
its shift patterns according to driving style, for a truly one-toone driving experience. And when it comes to long, high-speed
journeys, the last two gears, seventh and eighth, are calibrated
to reduce fuel consumption and further increase comfort. The
transmission sends power to the rear wheels of all versions
via a standard mechanical Limited-Slip Differential (LSD). This
ensures superb traction even in challenging situations. For
maximum driver involvement, there are five operating modes,
selected using the buttons near the gear lever:
What’s more, on petrol-engine versions, overboost is activated.
This gives access to peak torque at a considerably reduced
engine speed. Integrated Vehicle Control (IVC) adds to the
excitement, giving the driver even more dynamic control.
MANUAL NORMAL MODE
This allows the driver to change gear using the optional paddles
behind the steering wheel or the lever on the central tunnel.
The system automatically shifts up a gear as the red line approaches,
and shifts down in the same way.
AUTO NORMAL MODE
This pre-set mode provides smooth gearshifts at low revs to
maximise ride comfort and minimise fuel consumption. When
a sportier style of driving is recognised, upshifts automatically
take place at higher engine speeds.
MANUAL SPORT MODE
In Manual Sport mode, the driver takes full control of the
transmission: the overboost function is activated for maximum
performance, gearshifts are quicker and sharper, and the engine
can be pushed to the limit without the system intervening. The
only automatic feature is downshifting if the revs drop too low.
AUTO SPORT MODE
In this mode, gear changes take place in under 100 milliseconds
and occur at higher revs. This guarantees a near-seamless flow
of exhilarating high power and a far more sporty driving style.
I.C.E. (INCREASED CONTROL & EFFICIENCY) MODE
This mode ensures better control in all weather conditions, the
quietest and most comfortable engine response, and minimal
fuel consumption.
55
A
GRIPPING EXPERIENCE
The long road ahead, with its twists, turns and occasional surprises, is there for the taking thanks to a host of intelligent systems.
Q4 INTELLIGENT ALL-WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM
The Quattroporte S Q4, with its compact and lightweight
intelligent all-wheel drive system, is the perfect choice for
drivers seeking the rewards of rear-wheel drive with the backup of four-by-four traction. In normal conditions, the Q4 system
sends all torque to the rear wheels, for perfectly balanced
Maserati driving dynamics and optimal fuel consumption.
If traction is lost due to sudden acceleration or low grip on the
rear axle, Q4 can alter the torque split from 100 per cent rearwheel drive to 50-50 between the front and rear wheels. It all
happens in an imperceptible 150 milliseconds – or less than the
blink of an eye.
SKYHOOK SUSPENSION
This system uses sensors that monitor the movement of each
wheel and the car’s body to determine the road conditions and
how the car is being driven. It then instantly adjusts the settings
of each damper accordingly. The basic setting prioritises ride
comfort, but if more dynamic handling is required, a press of
the Skyhook Sport Setting, which now has its own dedicated
button within the Drive Mode controls, immediately firms up
the shock absorbers.
56
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS)
All Quattroporte versions feature EPS as standard, without
compromising the responsiveness that is such an important part
of our DNA. This system is designed to provide the excellent
road-feel expected from Maserati. It is particularly efficient as
it is powered directly by the engine when needed, so there is no
need for a hydraulic pump. What’s more, with no pressurised
fluid under the bonnet, less maintenance is required. The system
adapts its weight according to speed, being lighter and easy to
turn when manoeuvring in a tight spot, for instance. Conversely
it has a weightier, more connected feel at high speeds. Another
plus point is integration with active Advanced Driving Assistance
Systems such as Highway Assist, Lane Keeping Assist and
Active Blind Spot Assist.
INTEGRATED VEHICLE CONTROL
It's often better to be proactive, rather than reactive – especially
when it comes to driving dynamics. Integrated Vehicle Control
(IVC) anticipates any issues that could cause instability and
counteracts them in the blink of an eye. The system works by
selectively reducing engine torque and applying brakeforce to
individual wheels as required.
Innovation
FOR A CONNECTED WORLD
A cutting-edge infotainment package for the 2019 Quattroporte puts the focus on intuitive engagement, real-world assistance
and adaptable enjoyment.
The interior of the Quattroporte is built around a driver interface
that is intuitive, uncluttered and simple to use. The instrument
cluster features large analogue gauges for the tachometer
and speedometer, alongside a 7” TFT display. Major dynamic
functions are incorporated into the buttons alongside the
gearshift, while other on-board settings can be set using the
Maserati Touch Control Plus (MTC+) infotainment system at
the centre of the dashboard, or the steering wheel controls for
the 7” TFT display.
MASERATI TOUCH CONTROL PLUS
The 8.4” MTC+ unit takes pride of place at the centre of the
Quattroporte dashboard. With very few buttons plus a highly
responsive interface, it is designed to help the driver maintain
focus on the road ahead and mastering it is intuitive and easy.
MTC+ can be operated in three ways: via the multi-touchscreen,
the rotary control in the central console, or through voice
58
commands. The system incorporates the car’s radio, Bluetooth®
and satellite navigation system (where fitted), along with
connections to external sources such as mobile phones, tablets
and laptop computers.
Using Aux-in, USB sockets or the SD card reader, you can also
play music. In addition, MTC+ controls many of the car’s other
functions. The state-of-the-art system also features both Apple
CarPlay® and Android Auto® mirroring functions. In addition,
for iPhone® users, Apple’s Siri® system acts as a personal assistant.
WORLD-CLASS AUDIO ENTERTAINMENT
The Quattroporte is offered with a choice of two exceptional
audio systems. The 900-watt, 10-speaker Harman Kardon
Premium Sound system is fitted as standard and offers elevated
levels of audio refinement. For those seeking the ultimate
acoustics, the optional Bowers & Wilkins Surround Sound
system features fifteen speakers and a 1,280-watt amplifier.
S
SAFETY
Advanced
DRIVING ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
The Quattroporte can be equipped with an impressively comprehensive range of Advanced Driving Assistance Systems.
It means even greater peace of mind, whether you’re on an exclusive grand tour or a dash through the city.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL WITH STOP & GO
Adaptive Cruise Control constantly monitors the vehicle ahead,
maintaining a pre-set distance. With the Stop & Go function,
the car will also adjust to the speed of the vehicle in front until
it comes to a complete stop.
FORWARD COLLISION WARNING PLUS
This, in combination with Adaptive Cruise Control, monitors
vehicles ahead and warns if the approach could result in a rearend collision. This is linked to the Advanced Brake Assist system,
which provides additional braking during an emergency stop.
If the warning does not prompt any action from the driver, the
Autonomous Emergency Braking system automatically applies
the brakes to reduce the car’s speed.
LANE KEEPING ASSIST (LKA)
This provides valuable support if the car is about to unintentionally
leave a lane. A digital camera behind the rear-view mirror
continuously monitors road markings to keep track of the
course ahead. The instrument panel display shows the specific
status. White lines on either side of the vehicle image indicate
that it is safely in lane. One yellow line indicates that the
Quattroporte is moving off-centre, right or left. And one flashing
yellow line warns of lane departure. At that point, when the
Visual & Haptic box is selected in the touchscreen display, Lane
Keeping Assist actively steps in with corrective steering torque.
Activation of the turn indicator overrides the system.
HIGHWAY ASSIST SYSTEM (HAS)
This combines the virtues of Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop
& Go and LKA to make life even easier on motorways, while
achieving level 2 semi-autonomous driving. Using information
picked up from a digital camera mounted behind the rear-view
mirror and a radar system in the front grille, HAS automatically
keeps the vehicle centred in its lane, at a pre-selected speed
and at a chosen distance from the vehicle ahead. It will even
decelerate the Quattroporte through to a standstill as the traffic
dictates. To ensure safety, HAS requires the driver to keep his or
her hands on the steering wheel at all times.
BLIND SPOT ALERT/ACTIVE BLIND SPOT ASSIST
The Blind Spot Alert continually assesses the space between
the Quattroporte and nearby vehicles by scanning blind spots
on either side of the vehicle with radar-based sensors. When a
vehicle enters one of these areas, a warning triangle appears in
the door mirrors to alert the driver of its presence. If the turning
indicator is activated to change lane, a warning is sounded.
Active Blind Spot Assist increases the level of protection. Along
with a visual alert in the door mirrors and an acoustic warning,
it also intervenes with steering torque if the driver starts to
change lanes while a vehicle is in the blind spot.
REAR CROSS PATH FUNCTION
This is a welcome feature that emits a warning when an unseen
vehicle is approaching, from the right or left, while reversing
out of a parking space (available only in combination with Blind
Spot Alert).
TRAFFIC SIGN RECOGNITION
It can be easy to miss traffic signs sometimes, for all sorts of
reasons. This is where Traffic Sign Recognition comes in.
It monitors three types of sign: speed limits, temporary speed
limits due to conditions such as heavy rain, and no-overtaking
zones. It then displays the signs digitally in the instrument
panel’s cluster display. The system works with a digital camera
mounted behind the rear-view mirror and data from the
navigation system.
bumpers. Beeping noises increase in frequency as the obstacle
approaches, while the TFT display in the centre of the instrument
panel shows the car surrounded by symbols which light up in
green, yellow or red depending on the remaining distance.
In addition, a rear-view camera, fitted close to the boot lock,
shows a view of what is behind the car on the Maserati display.
Dynamic grid lines illustrate the maximum width of the vehicle
and its projected path, based on the steering angle of the
front wheels.
SURROUND VIEW CAMERA
This provides a clear 360° view around the car, helping with
parking and highlighting otherwise hidden obstructions. Images
are captured by two cameras beneath the door mirrors plus
front and rear cameras and shown on the main display screen.
FRONT AND REAR PARKING SENSORS
AND REVERSING CAMERA
To assist with manoeuvring in tight spaces, the Quattroporte

Comprehensive
SAFETY
Maserati made safety a top priority when designing the Quattroporte. So not only does it provide mile after mile of high-powered
luxury, it also gives you complete peace of mind.
THE MASERATI STABILITY PROGRAM
Developed in the most extreme test conditions, the Maserati
Stability Program (MSP) uses an array of sensors to constantly
monitor driving status. It can then deploy a host of safety and
performance systems to maintain handling and grip. If, for
instance, a skid is detected, MSP selectively reduces engine
torque and can activate the brakes with finely varied inputs to
restore stability within milliseconds. The MSP system also works
in harmony with functions including Anti Slip Regulation (ASR),
which reduces wheel spin and improves traction, and engine
brake torque control (MSR), which prevents the wheels from
locking up when suddenly changing down gears. Additionally,
antilock brakes (ABS) and Electronic Brakeforce Distribution
(EBD) stop the wheels from locking and distribute brakeforce
between the front and rear axles. Further support is provided by
the Brake Assist System (BAS). This recognises emergency stops
and boosts the pressure in the hydraulic circuit to maximise
stopping power. A Hill Holder, meanwhile, helps the driver
when starting off on an uphill slope.
67
FULL-LED ADAPTIVE HEADLIGHTS
WITH GLARE-FREE HIGH-BEAM ASSIST
The Quattroporte is fitted with new Full-LED Adaptive headlights
that even further sharpen the striking Maserati look, significantly
improve visibility and lower energy usage. They also offer
remarkably long bulb life. With 15 LEDs operating at full beam,
these headlights offer a 200% greater field of vision than
traditional halogen lights. Road illumination extends by 55
metres and bulb longevity is roughly twice as long. What’s
more, glare-free technology enables drivers to gain the full
benefits of their headlights without affecting oncoming vehicles.
This uses a digital camera behind the rear-view mirror to detect
approaching vehicles. It then directs the light away from the
other vehicles, leaving them untroubled by glare. The surrounding
areas, meanwhile, remain safely and effectively lit with neardaylight quality illumination. The headlights also feature the
Adaptive Driving Beam (ADB). This automatically adjusts the
width and depth of the headlight beams, giving maximum
lighting effectiveness and optimal safety. This is made possible
by a camera mounted in the rear-view mirror and sensors that
monitor several different parameters, including the steering
wheel position, the car’s speed and the way it is being driven.
ADB comes on automatically when driving in bad weather, on
motorways or in town.
AIRBAGS AND ACTIVE HEADRESTS
The Quattroporte is equipped with six airbags. Two front airbags,
both dual-stage, shield the driver and front passenger in the
event of collision, while further protection is provided by side
and window airbags. There are also active headrests on the
front seats. These automatically move in closer to the occupants’
heads to reduce the risk of whiplash injury.

A WORLD OF MASERATI
BECOME A MASTER
OF DRIVING
MASTER MASERATI DRIVING COURSES
MASTER ON TRACK
All Maserati cars embody the principles of GranTurismo. Race-bred
performance combines with hand-crafted comfort to turn every journey
into an unforgettable experience. Our Master Maserati driving courses
are designed to help you unleash the full potential at your fingertips –
whatever your ability or experience, whatever the terrain.
PRACTICE
MAKE YOUR FIRST DECISIVE MOVE
Imagine a Formula 1 practice session. Now put yourself in the driving seat.
This is where your journey begins. With this course, you’ll learn the
fundamentals of track driving while safely exploring the performance limits
of the full Maserati range – Quattroporte, Ghibli, Levante, GranTurismo
and GranCabrio. The half-day programme on the Varano circuit includes
theoretical and dynamic sessions with our expert drivers. On completion,
you’ll be perfectly prepared for our full-day Qualifying course.
Master Maserati driving courses also reflect the principles that guide
everything we do. We offer, for instance, tailored one-to-one instruction
from championship-winning drivers who provide coaching from the
passenger seat as you drive – an experience that’s rare to find in our
industry. You can enjoy the entire Maserati model range in depth and in
safety, alongside the GT4 race car and the MC12, a six-time GT1 world
champion. Advanced technology, such as telemetry and video analysis,
makes each experience truly immersive and rewarding.
Master Maserati courses are held at the Varano de’ Melegari (Parma)
circuit, a track with first-class safety standards and superb on- and off-road
facilities nestled in beautiful Italian countryside. We very much look forward
to welcoming you there soon.

QUALIFYING
RAISE THE INTENSITY, RAISE THE PACE
Now you’re on the quest for faster lap times – just like an F1 qualifying
session. This full day involves intense driving sessions focused on sharpening
technique and further developing your ability. At this driving level, we
introduce detailed video analysis and vital insights from racing telemetry
that will help you fine-tune your skills – and improve those times.
RACE
HIT THE TRACK IN A TRUE RACE CAR, THE GT4
The lights are green. It’s time to race. You’re ready to experience the raw
excitement and adrenaline of being a Maserati racing driver. First, you’ll get
to know the Maserati GT4 race car inside and out. Then, following oneto-one coaching from an expert driver, you’re ready to hit the track and
put the car through its paces. As with professional motor sport, you’ll be
supported by an expert team, from seasoned mechanics to telemetry experts.
CHAMPIONSHIP
REACH THE TOP, GET A TASTE OF THE LEGENDARY
MC12 VERSIONE CORSE
Are you ready to enrol in the masterclass of Maserati motor sport? This
exclusive two-day programme helps you perfect your style as you push
the performance boundaries. You won’t just drive GT4 Maserati race cars,
though. You’ll also experience hot laps in the legendary MC12. Your driver
will be none other than Andrea Bertolini – four-time world champion in
this magnificent and iconic car.
MASTER OFF ROAD
RALLY SHAKEDOWN
TAKE A DRIVE ON THE WILD SIDE
An introduction to the art of off-roading in the Maserati of SUVs – the
Levante. In this half-day course, you take on the challenges of the Varano
circuit’s private nature reserve. This is real-world all-terrain driving, complete
with deeply rutted trails, steep inclines, ramps and natural obstacles.
Your expert driver will show exactly how the high-riding, technologically
advanced Levante keeps you in control – however rough it gets.
MASTER INCENTIVE
TAILOR MADE COURSES
Nothing bonds a team like the exhilaration and spirit of a Master Maserati
driving course. What’s more, we can tailor them to exactly suit the interests
and aims of your business or team, and we welcome groups of any size
for the number of driving days they’d prefer. For instance, we can provide
instruction on the basics of track driving or how to become a racing
driver. We offer guidance from expert drivers, one-to-one coaching, video,
telemetry recording and the full support of a crew. The driving can also
be combined with cultural programmes and activities, including a visit
to the Panini Motor Museum in Modena, culinary experiences and a
Maserati factory tour. For your added convenience, we offer a range of
supplementary services, from organising hotels to airport transfers.

RALLY POWER STAGE
IMMERSE YOURSELF IN EVERY POSSIBILITY
A day of adrenaline – on and off the road. This one-day course is your
chance to experience the best that Maserati offers in any driving situation.
You’ll push the limits on rough and low-grip surfaces in the Levante and,
before there’s time to catch your breath, you’ll be putting your skills to the
test on the circuit in all Maserati models. Along with the expert support
and guidance from our championship-winning drivers you’ve come to
enjoy from Master Maserati.

no better starting line than the birthplace of the car itself. Your event
begins at the Maserati showroom. After a warm welcome from a Maserati
representative − complete with coffee and drinks − you can choose to
take a 90-minute tour of the production line, accompanied by a specialist
guide and photographer. After the tour, it’s time for the unveiling of
your car and a complete explanation of its features. Then you sign the
documentation to officially take ownership of your vehicle. Before we bid
you farewell, the photographer takes some final pictures at the exit of the
Maserati facilities. The photos from the tour are then used to create a
commemorative album, sent to your address. The full experience − including
the Factory Tour – lasts between 2.5 and 3 hours.
