Maserati’s Next Five Years: What to Expect from the Trident Brand

From Car and Driver

Maserati still exists. You might not have heard much about the Italian luxury brand recently, but its five-year plan was outlined late last week by parent company Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) at its 2018 Capital Markets Day. Maserati won’t be adding a significant number of new nameplates-today’s lineup includes the Ghibli and Quattroporte sedans as well as the Levante SUV and GranTurismo coupe and convertible-but it is going all in on hybridization and electrification. The GranTurismo will be replaced by the sexier Alfieri sports car, and a compact luxury crossover will slot in beneath the Levante.

We’ve gathered the meat of the changes for you here, all of which are promised to come to fruition by the end of 2022:

Alfieri: New coupe and convertible to replace the GranTurismo, will have a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and a fully electric variant. READ MORE >

Compact SUV: A new luxury crossover that will compete with the BMW X3, the Mercedes-Benz GLC-class, and their ilk. Like the rest of Maserati’s future lineup, its lineup will include a plug-in hybrid.

Ghibli: Will be refreshed, will possibly add a plug-in hybrid. READ MORE >>

Levante: Will be redesigned and will gain a plug-in hybrid and a fully electric variant. READ MORE >>

Quattroporte: Will be redesigned and will gain a plug-in hybrid and a fully electric version. READ MORE >>
