Maserati Ghibli Trofeo review: a 200mph BMW M5 Killer?

It s Maserati competitor to high-performance saloons such as the BMW M5 Competition & Porsche Panamera Turbo, and Mat s about to find out if you should choose the Italian over a German! Well for starters, let s take a peek under the bonnet, and the first thing you ll notice is that the engine s red. The reason it s red is because it s based on the engine that is used to power the Ferrari Portofino and Ferrari Roma! The power output may be down slightly compared to the Ferrari, but it s still no slouch! It s a 3. 8-litre twin-turbo V8 that can produce 580hp and 730Nm of torque. When it comes to power, Maserati claims it can propel the Ghibli Trofeo to 60mph in just 4. 3 seconds. So it s pretty impressive, although it s still a full second slower than the BMW M5 Competition When it comes to the design, the Ghibli Trofeo looks pretty similar to the regular Maserati Ghibli, although there are a few subtle changes. Up front, you ll find vents in the bonnet and a carbon fibre splitter, and along the side, there are optional 21-inch wheels and red inlets added to the side air vents. Around the back, it s all pretty similar to the standard car, apart from the addition of a carbon fibre rear diffuser. Take a step inside, and the design of the interior seems slightly middle of the road. If anything, it s maybe a bit dated. Thankfully though, there are a few elements we re really impressed with. There s an all-new modern infotainment system in the centre of the dash, and there are also a pair of sports seats for the driver and front passenger. There s also the option to choose a carbon fibre pack which adds carbon to the centre console, door trims and paddle shifters! So it s a seriously smart car, but as a result, it then comes with a pretty serious price tag - 121, 745! So do you think it s worth it? Or would your money be better spent on a German competitor? Let us know in the comments!

Let's take a moment to appreciate the analogue dials, physical buttons and the gear knob. I wish manufacturers stop listening to journalistis who are always pushing towards screens. At least for internal combustion engine cars, things should stay analogue and mechanical. I mean I wouldn't mind screens on an electric car.

Like the old Quattroporte Maserati are slower and later to the party than the competition, which is a shame because they make lovely cars and not everyone wants the same car as everyone else, I will never own a modern BMW.
Unfortunately it will be more expensive and less reliable than the competition

In his days the Italian design was BOSTIN
(to say it in a Brummie way. ) but now he's look bit to old.
It's a Shame.
My, (like me) lovely Italian people designer, schuld think, that it's time to make a new one.
P. S:
Forza Aston Villa!

Nah man. BMW M5, whichever generation it is, still would be my pick over Ghibli Trofeo or any other non hyper car Maserati, maybe would put Maserati Quattroporte and BMW M5 e61 on par regarding interest, but that's as close as it gets for me.

I remember the first time I sat in a Ghibli. couldn't believe how bad the interior toichpoints are (gear lever, window switches. They try to make up for it with good leather, but god it feels so cheap using it. Worse than any Toyota or Honda.

Nice car. To bad our government demands at least 70. 000, - tax if you want to buy a car like this, on top of the 140k base price, making the total price way over 200k euro. Makes it a bit to expensive (which is the point I guess.
reply

I remember everyone trashing the ghibli when it first came out as an overpriced FCA parts bin car, but good to known theyre dipping into the nicer parts these days. Eyes out for these in a couple years when they depreciate like hell!
reply

Too late, too old and unfortunately, not enough. The Ghibli may have a better badge and more exciting engine, but unfortunately the M5 is faster on paper and in reality and has all the comfort and tech a car of that price should have.
reply

That was my feeling with my Alfa Giulia. I never even bothered to look up the 0-60. It was more than quick enough and it felt amazing on the road. It s a feeling I ve definitely not gotten from the other European cars I ve had
reply

It is Italian, let's face it, half of luxury and gadgets will break down almost right after you buy it. And even if it not breaks it will wear out extremely quick. No quality at all. All show no go, sorry, nothing like a AMG
reply

For all broke people who cant afford Ghibli nor M5 and shouting about reliability: Who gives a horse's arse for maintenance when you have money. Someone who drives Maserati doesn't give a for broke kids defending BMW.
reply

Maybe it s just me but it s nothing exciting with Maserati anymore. Drove the new Levante GT the last days and, just from driving perspective, there is hardly a difference between this one or a regular Volkswagen
reply

there is one car. i love in this moment. it is the definition of design perfection. it s a nice dream. ready. THIS CAR IS THE NEW ALFA ROMEO GIULIA RWB ZAGATO. ZAGATO S DESIGNS HITS THE EDGE OF PERFECTION NOW.
reply

Mat has such a way with words. This guy can go from reviewing boring SUVs to talking in great detail about the quirks of an Italian sports car and keep me entertained and interested with both. Incredible!
reply

First time I see a realistic 0-60, I mean without Launch Control which artificially boost 0-60 but does not reflect real car performance. Interesting, you should do the same for each your 0-60 tests.
