मासेराती क्वात्रोपोर्टे फोटो

Recently, I had an opportunity to drive the Maserati Quattroporte when we went to attend a wedding in Delhi. After I drove the car, the curiosity to know about the brand, as well as the car, was ticking in my head. The Italian company had rather a bitter experience when they first forayed into the Indian market. Now with products like Levante and Quattroporte, the automaker is re-attempting to make its space in the market once again. The GTS I drove was a lovely car and I spent a lot of time only on staring at the dominating looks it has. It appears so commanding that performance and luxury seem to get fade away in the background. The dominating looks are complemented with the powerful V8 engine that takes this car from 0-100kmph in 4.7 seconds, which also makes it the fastest sedan from the Italian brand till date. The car can reach the top speed of 310kmph which is amazing, to say the least. The cabin is thoroughly luxurious with the rear space being a lounge. The 8.4inch multi-touch screen with voice commands and Android Auto/Apple CarPlay is a blessing. The decibels are handled by 10-speaker Harmon Kardon music system. The car scores well in all aspects but the fact remains that the vehicle is currently available only at Delhi dealership with Mumbai and Bangalore dealerships waiting to get the green signal. So, one has to make a bold decision before purchasing this car.
