QUATTROPORTE ENGINE 4,2 LITRE V8.The Quattroporte is equipped with Maseratis renowned

4,244 cc V8 engine with wet sump lubrication. Compared with dry-sumps used on other engines, the wet

sump needs a single pump to circulate the oil, which reduces its operating noise, hence increasing refinement.

The 90 V8 generates an awesome 295 kW (400 Hp), along with huge amounts of torque: some 460 Nm at

4,750 rpm. The crankcase and cylinder heads are made of an aluminium and silicon alloy, the main crankshaft

is tempered steel, and there are five main bearings. Two chain-driven overhead camshafts per bank control

the timing, and its 32 valves are controlled by hydraulic tappets. The camshafts on the intake side are fitted

with a high pressure continuous phase timing variator, with valve actuation times of less than 0.15 seconds.

The igni t ion and inject ion sys tems are ful ly integra ted, wi th fea tures tha t detect any opera t ing

malfunctions and ensure that emission control regulations are met. The ECU (Electronic Control

Unit) dialogues with the other systems through a CAN line (Controlled Area Network) to optimise

engine management, and the acce lera tor i s the e lectronic drive by wire varie ty.

All these features combine to deliver exceptional performance. Whats more, this Maserati V8 has its

own unique power delivery curve which results in Quattroporte drivers experiencing supreme driving

comfort and a velvet-smooth ride.

Harnessing the prodigious power of the Quattroportes engine is a perfectly matched automatic

transmission that ensures truly effortless gearchanging around town and in heavy traffic, along with

the option of manual shifting when the road opens up and the opportunity of a sportier driving style

presents i tself. The automatic gearbox features six forward gears: when the rev-reducing sixth gear is

engaged, fuel consumption improves and sound levels fall.

The Quattroportes power and performance figures say it all:

Max Power: 295 kW (400 Hp). Top Speed: 168 mph. 0 to 62 mph: 5.6 seconds.

QUATTROPORTE S ENGINE - 4.7 LITRES. Under the bonnet of the Quattroporte S is the last word

in the new family of wet sump engines: the new 4.7 litre engine unit delivers a top speed of 280 km/h and acceleration

from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.4 seconds, thanks to the new eight-cylinder 90 degree V8 engine, with displacement of 4,691 cc,

which can generate a power of 430 Hp at 7,000 rpm, and a maximum torque of 490 Nm at 4,750 rpm. Identified by its

red cylinder head covers, the new 4.7 litre engine has been specially developed to optimise the cars power and make the

Maserati Quattroporte S even more exciting to drive, with the smoothest of rides and breathtaking performance. The tech-

nical features adopted ensure that this engine is exceptionally quiet and reliable, with very low friction levels for reduced

fuel consumption, providing performance in which the qualities shared by all the latest Maserati engines, massive specific

power and rapid rise and fall in rpm, are raised to new heights. Generating 82% of its torque at just 2,500 rpm, the 4.7 litre

V8 engine accelerates impressively even in high gears: this means relaxed driving on long trips, and in general full use of the

engine throughout its operating range.

QUATTROPORTE SPORT GT S ENGINE - 4.7 LITRES. This version is fitted with the most powerful

engine in the Maserati Quattroporte range. Capable of 440 Hp at 7,000 rpm and a maximum torque of 490 Nm at

4,750 rpm, it raises the cars performance to unprecedented levels. These figures have been achieved not only by modifying

the engines electronic control parameters, but also through in-depth development of the racing exhaust system installed

on this version. The system is controlled by air valves that open in SPORT mode to reduce back-pressure in the exhaust;

this increases the maximum power available, and creates a throaty roar at low engine speeds and full symphonic sound of a

genuine sports car at higher rpm.

SPORT EXHAUST SYSTEM

Normal Mode - exhaust valves closed.

In Normal mode, the exhaust valves are closed, forcing the exhaust gases to take a longer route; this reduces the energy

level and thus tones down the sound of the engine. Normal exhaust system control mode is designed to optimise comfort

inside the car by lowering the level of audible engine noise heard, while also limiting the maximum power available to 430

horsepower.

Sport Mode - exhaust valves open.

In Sport mode the exhaust valves open to offer the exhaust gases a broad, straight path: in contrast with Normal mode, this

allows all the energy to discharge through the tailpipes without any restriction, enabling delivery of the maximum power of

440 horsepower combined with a truly thrilling deep sports- car roar. Sport mode, which the driver activates by pressing

the button provided on the central console, is designed to make full use of the cars performance potential.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. In keeping with its role as a luxurious grand tourer, the

Quattroporte offers a six-speed, hydraulic automatic transmission system that is a model of smoothness

and refinement. The collaboration between Maserati and German transmission experts, ZF, has resulted

in an exceptionally flexible and responsive unit that allows changes at engine speeds of up to 7200 rpm.

In normal circumstances, gearshifting is managed automatically, with the systems computer software

determining at what engine speeds the changes take place, and how quick they are. However, the

driver is also given two options that impact on the gearshifting pattern: Sport mode and Ice mode. By

pressing the Sport button gearchanges are still managed automatically, but shifting up happens at higher

engine speeds for a sportier drive, and the actual changes take place more rapidly, too. The Ice mode

is for driving over low-grip surfaces. To reduce the risk of traction loss, i t limits the amount of torque

transmitted to the wheels by activating the ASR traction control, and prevents the engine from revving

above 3,000 rpm. It also starts the car off in second gear instead of first. In addition, the system allows

the driver complete control over the gearchanging with Manual mode, whereby clutchless sequential

changes are made via the gearstick on the central tunnel - for a more sporty, involved style of driving,

or via optional steering wheel-mounted paddles.

In the Quattroporte S, the extra power of the larger 4.7 li tre engine is exploited to the full, with revised

and upgraded software within the transmission unit. This enhances the cars acceleration and its sporty

response up through the gears.

The new Quattroporte Sport GT S is equipped with the MC-Auto Shift software package for racing-style control of

gear changes.

In MANUAL MODE the driver controls gear shifts directly, and changes are permitted up to the redline on the

rpm counter. For the most enjoyable, highest-performance driving experience, an electronic gear shift indicator in the

middle of the dashboard tells the driver when it is the ideal timing of the gear change; this system, which enhances the

pleasure and satisfaction of the driving experience when truly putting the car through its paces, is complemented by

Trofeo style extra-long paddles behind the steering-wheel, ergonomically shaped for easier gear changes on the most

demanding roads.

In AUTO SPORT mode, the gear shift control software activates the MC Start Strategy function. This function

allows controlled starts enabling the car to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.1 seconds, instead of 5.3 seconds.

MANUAL SPORT and AUTO SPORT modes both also provide electronic heel and toeing during down-shifts; this,

combined with the Quattroporte Sport GT Ss other characteristics, make this saloon car capable of unprecedented

sporty performance.

SUSPENSION, TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITY, STEERING. The Quattroportes

chassis provides outstanding handling, safety and comfort. The basic structure incorporates the very

latest high-tech features: double wishbone suspension at front and rear designed to ensure Antidive

(preventing the nose from diving during braking) and Antisquat (preventing the tai l from pitching

down during acceleration) functions. The outstanding torsional and flexural rigidity of the car body

gives excellent dynamic handling, for greater safety and driving pleasure.

The new 4.2 li tre Quattroporte has a single comfort suspension setup, specially developed for a

smoother ride: the result is exceptional control, with very li ttle movement of the cars body. Skyhook

suspension are avai lable as an option on this version.

The new 4.7 li tre Quattroporte S is fi tted with a state-of-the-art Skyhook suspension system (with

controlled damping and variable setup). With a new setting, the dampers and springs ensure more

balanced roadholding while the adoption of new valves optimises the frequency response.

The Quattroporte Sport GT S is fi tted with the single-setting racing-style suspension system: developed

to further enhance the cars handling, it makes its steering extremely sensitive and responsive.

The additional sti ffening of the suspension by 30% at the front and 10% at the rear, together with a

reduction in ground clearance of 10 mm on the front and 25 mm on the rear axle respectively, provides

a substantial reduction in load transfers and more effective traction control during direction changes.

THE SKYHOOK SYSTEM. Maseratis Skyhook system continually monitors and adjusts the suspension

settings via aluminium, gas-filled dampers with proportional valves. The optimum damping rates are

automatically set according to the prevailing road conditions and the way the car is being driven. This

ensures a smooth and comfortable ride without sacrificing any sportiness or driver involvement. Skyhook

uses sensors that record the movements of each wheel and also the cars body; its control unit then

analyses this information, along with feedback about how the car is being driven, and instantly adjusts

the damper settings by acting on their proportional valves.

In addition, the Skyhook system allows the driver to choose the way the suspension behaves with the

option of two different settings: Normal and Sport (selected via the Sport button). Normal offers

comparatively soft damping for a more comfortable ride - but by pressing the Sport button, the system

switches to a harder, stiffer set-up that enhances the agility and responsiveness of the car.

ECHANICS

WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION. Its weight distribution is the defining characteristic of the Quattroporte

range. In the Quattroporte, the engine is located behind the front axle towards the cabin, thus transferring

more weight to the centre of the car. With the gearbox located at the rear, this means that not only is it

remarkably well balanced, with 49% of its weight at the front and 51% at the back, but also that the cars

traction and acceleration are enhanced, due to the additional load over the rear driving wheels.

BRAKING SYSTEM. The Maserati Quattroportes braking system comprises four ventilated discs (330

mm at both the front and rear) with four-piston fixed callipers at the front and two-piston versions at

the rear, along with a power brake. To optimise its performance, the system also features ABS to prevent

the wheels from locking up during hard braking, and EBD that ensures that the braking action is always

optimally distributed between the front and rear axles. These are both integrated into the Maserati

Stability Programme (MSP) stability control system. These features are instrumental in shortening

stopping distances and ensuring that the driver can maintain directional control of the car whilst braking

hard, even on wet and slippery surfaces.

ECHANICS

The Maserati Quattroporte S and the new Quattropo rte Sport GT S are equipped with a high-per formance

braking system developed in association with Brembo. The dual-cast disc consists of a cast iron friction

(or braking) ring and an aluminium hub - thus combining cast irons superior braking performance at high

temperatures with the light weight of aluminium. The two models conceal further technical excellence

in their brake callipers. At the front, the discs are operated on by six-piston mono-bloc aluminium brake

callipers mono-bloc callipers having more resistance to deformation in extreme conditions.

ILLUM

INATION

LIGHTS. The lights on the new Quattroporte range, both front and rear, are not only highly distinctive, but

exceptionally efficient, too. LEDs feature prominently in these units to ensure the highest level of visibility,

whilst the headlights are truly state-of-the-art.

Both the Quattroporte and Quattroporte S feature self-levelling Bi-Xenon headlights as standard. Bi-Xenon

headlights are unquestionably the best there are, but on the Quattroporte their effectiveness is enhanced still

further by the new Adaptive Light Control system, a mechanism that makes the headlights turn in the direction

of the car when cornering. This improves the illumination of the road and surrounding areas, and is therefore

an important safety feature when travelling at night on winding routes. With the headlights on, either main or

dipped, an electronic control unit monitors the steering wheel and its angle, as well as the cars speed. With

this information it activates special electric motors that rotate the light cones through angles of up to 15. For

safety reasons the system only works at speeds over 3 mph, and above 75 mph it deactivates.

65


67/132

Thanks to the 10 LEDs in the bottom of the front light clusters, the headlights also provide the Daytime Running

Light function an important safety feature. Another headlight feature is the indicators integrated into the

headlight unit, along with high pressure washers. The foglights are separate units that are integrated in the front

bumper, and provide a particularly broad beam.

The rear light units also feature LEDs: each unit has no less than 34 of them. The key advantages of LEDs are that

they light up more quickly than ordinary lightbulbs, they are brighter, last longer, and also use up less energy.

The new Quattroporte Sport GT S is fitted with headlights featuring a distinctive black-effect internal casing.

QUATTROPORTE SPORT GT S INTERIOR. The most sporty model in the Quattroporte range also

clearly proclaims its character through the style of i ts interior, using specific materials.

The seats, which are state of the art in terms of ergonomics and comfort, have a stylised M for Maserati

on the backs. The central sections of the seats are upholstered in perforated Alcantara, for optimal

breathability and a firm support during hard cornering; Alcantara is also used on the side panels, the front

armrest, the steering-wheel and the gear lever knob.

The interior finishes on this version are a celebration of technology and workmanship. The material used

is the groundbreaking TitanTex, an ultra-lightweight aluminium-coated titanium fibre fabric, made even

more special by a specific processing, which gives the interior a high-tech, high-performance look, as well

as a shinier, more three-dimensional overall appearance. The steering paddles, integral with the steering

column, have a decorative chromed finish that gives their edges definition: they are also longer in shape,

to ensure a good grip even when the steering wheel is on a tight lock. The interior finishes are completed

by the exclusive addition of the name of the model in relief on the dashboard.

Aluminium pedals are available as an option: specially designed for racing-style driving, they provide

outstanding grip when the brake and accelerator are depressed and released in quick succession.

Carefully selected for their flawless quality, all the woods undergo a lengthy process that involves

hand-crafting techniques as well as the latest preparation and treatment methods. Customers can then

personalise their car sti ll further by opting for exquisite inlays to be added to the wood panelling.

The new Quattroporte Sport GT S can be finished with latest-generation materials developed for

racing-style, high-performance driving: TitanTex and carbon fibre. TitanTex is an ultra-lightweight

aluminium-coated titanium fibre fabric, with a modern, high-tech look, given added prestige by a

special processing which produces a shiny finish with a three-dimensional effect. Additional detai ls ,

such as the door si ll and steering wheel, are also avai lable to match the TitanTex interior finishes, for

an even more luxurious look. The carbon fibre interior finishes avai lable as one of the customisation

options for the MC Sport Line give the interior a look with strong associations to the racing world,

and provide a firm statement of the Quattroporte Sport GT Ss true character.

POLTRONA FRAU LEATHER. Quattroporte customers can choose to have their car upholstered

in the finest leather from Poltrona Frau

, a company famous for the quality of its hides and the

traditional processi ng techniques it uses. Its products are magnificent examples of Italian craftsmanship.

The Poltrona Frau leather used for the interior trim of the Quattroporte goes through a rigorous

selection process that rejects all but the softest and most tactile of high quality hides. The treatments

they then undergo add durability, strength, and practicality to their attractive appearance, whilst hand

finishing processes ensure that the leather is soft and snug in winter, yet cool and comfortable in the

summer - and help give it that very special feature that makes ageing a factor that actually enhances

its appeal.

A new leather tint has been added to the Quattroporte range: Blu Profondit.

For customers seeking the most elegant and exclusive leather, Ma serati is proud to offer Poltrona Frau

Luxury natural leather. Extraordinarily soft to the touch, it gives the cars occupants a unique feeling

of sensuality and refinement. The Poltrona Frau logo and double stitching bring added cachet to the

upholstery, and make the Quattroportes interior even more luxurious and sophisticated.

maintains ideal conditions inside the cabin by automatically adjusting the interior temperature and the degree

of ventilation in relation to the outdoor temperature, sunlight intensity, and air humidity. In addition, theres a

sensor that monitors the incoming air quality and prevents contaminated air or unpleasant smells from entering

the car by automatically activating the air recycling function. The system is also fitted with an anti-misting sensor:

if the glass temperature drops below the point when the glass surfaces begin to mist up, this automatically cuts in

to reduce the humidity content of the air. The concept of maintaining an ideal climate even extends to the rear,

where six vents are located - two on the central console, two on the central pillars and two at foot level. This

can be further enhanced with an optional rear climate control console that allows the passengers in the back to

set their own ventilation rates and adjust the distribution of air flow through the various outlets independently.

ADDITIONAL ON-BOARD EQUIPMENT. Other electronic features installed on the Quattroporte as

standard include the Light Sensor that monitors the amount of light in the surrounding environment and then

switches the headlights on and off accordingly, and the Rain Sensor that detects the existence of rain on the

windscreen, and then activates the wipers and adjusts their speed in relation to its intensity. In addition, all

Quattroporte models come with Cruise Control, which maintains a set cruising speed with no need to keep

pressing down on the accelerator pedal, an anti-theft system that comprises an anti-lifting sensor, volumetric

ultrasound sensors, perimeter protection and an alarm hidden in the engine compartment, plus automatic door

locking when the engine is started. Tyre pressure sensors, electrochromatic interior and exterior rearview mirrors,

and front parking sensors are also available as optional extras.

GT1. The new FIA GT1 World Championship, an evolution of the FIA GT, is where the

Maserati MC12 cars will once again attempt to confirm th eir supremacy in GT competitions.

This car has won 12 championship titles (drivers, teams and manufact urers) since 2004, and

also successfully competed in the prestigious and gruelling Spa 24 Hours.

GT4. The GranTurismo MC GT4 has been developed by Maserati for the new

costs and excellent support organisation.

The GranTurismo MC GT4 is a continuation of Maseratis racing heritage, which dates

back to 1926.

can contest the championship with all the cars prepared to an equal standard and managed
