The GranLusso is the very finest version of the 2018 Maserati Quattroporte, full of so many lovely soft-touch surfaces that you barely notice the switches out of the Fiat Chrysler Automobiles parts bin. Here are five interesting things we found in this $136,160 sedan.
1. The Engine Has to Go to Two Countries to Be Assembled
The Quattroporte has two engine options: the S and SQ4 models come with a twin-turbocharged V6 with a healthy 424 horsepower. The sportier GTS model’s twin-turbo V8 is rated to make 523. This car in question comes with the nice-sounding V6. Maserati says these engines are “built at the Ferrari factory in Maranello, Italy.” But not before the aluminum blocks are cast at Chrysler’s foundry in Kokomo, Ind. as Automotive News discovered around when this generation of the Quattroporte came out.
