Levante Trofeo Collector’s Edition - A Limited Edition

To launch the new model in the region, Maserati is presenting its new Levante Trofeo Collector’s Edition, a limited edition of 100 units, featuring Italian artisanal craftsmanship with the finest finishes. The Levante Trofeo Collector’s Edition will be available not only in the Giallo Modenese colour presented at the DIMS, but also in the unique paints of Blu Emozione Matte and Rosso Magma. The interior features sports seats with a premium full-grain ‘Pieno Fiore’ natural leather, with contrasting stitching and a ‘Trofeo’ logo embroidered on the headrest, available in blue, red or yellow. The exclusive carbon fibre inserts on the bumpers, side skirts and specially designed bonnet are crafted to stand out. 

The 22" Orione rims can be in matte or in a glossy Black finish, while the brake calipers are available in Silver, Blue, Yellow or Red.

The Levante Trofeo is equipped with one of the most powerful engines ever fitted in a Maserati road car. This is the 3.8 litre Twin Turbo V8, calibrated to mate perfectly with the Q4 Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system, providing it with a new crankcase design, specific crankshaft assembly, new oil pump and auxiliary belt and a different wiring layout.

In terms of 0-100km/h acceleration, it stops the chronometer at 4.1”, while the maximum speed is close to the 300 km/h threshold.

The Levante Trofeo is fitted with the eight-speed ZF automatic gearbox used on all the Levante versions, acclaimed for its versatility and sporty character.

The ‘Corsa’ driving mode with Launch Control functionality (in addition to the existing Normal, I.C.E., Sport and Off Road modes) has been adopted to enhance the sporty character of the ultimate Maserati SUV. ‘Corsa’ driving mode further improves engine response and opens exhaust valves in acceleration, as well as providing faster gear shifting, lower air suspension height levels, sportier Skyhook damping and optimized Q4 Intelligent All-Wheel Drive settings. It also interacts with the Traction Control and ESP systems to maximize driving pleasure.

With the Nerissimo Carbon pack the door handles, mirror caps, front splitter, and rear spoiler are in Carbon fibre. The same material will be available for the interior customization packs.

The stand also features a Maserati Ghibli S Q4 GranSport. The GranSport trim is equipped with Blue Emozione paint on the outside with a Red natural leather interior, plus roof lining in black Alcantara. The rims are 21” in Titano Anthracite, which imbue the Maserati sedan, boasting Q4 Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system, with a unique, unmistakable character.
