2005 Maserati Quattroporte
For the 2005 model year, Maserati introduced a full-size four-door luxury sedan called the Quattroporte. Designed by Pininfarina, the rear-wheel-drive Quattroporte competes against the Audi A8, BMW 7 Series and Mercedes-Benz S-Class.
The Quattroporte has Brembo all-disc brakes and a Skyhook automatic-damping suspension. A V-8 engine works with Maserati's DuoSelect sequential transmission, which can be shifted using paddles mounted on the steering column.
Maserati says the Quattroporte can accelerate from zero to 60 mph in a swift 5.2 seconds. For optimum weight distribution, the engine sits aft of the front axle and drives a rear-mounted transmission.
Recognizable Maserati styling cues include its long hood, prominent grille and headlights.
Low-slung front fenders, short front overhangs, a swept-back profile, a high belt line and a steeply raked windshield also help establish what the company calls an "authoritative persona [and] predatory appearance."
A broad horizontal-bar grille contains Maserati's Trident badge. The headlights sit slightly back, and a wide air intake is installed below the grille.
Three portholes adorn each front fender. Standard features include power front and rear seats, a power rear sunshade and a cooled compartment in the front armrest.
Touching a button in the center rear armrest moves the front passenger seat forward, supplying additional legroom.
The Bosch-Blaupunkt Multi Media System includes a navigation system, Bose stereo and TV tuner.
The Quattroporte's 4.2-liter V-8 engine generates close to 400 horsepower and 333 pounds-feet of torque.
The six-speed sequential transmission can be shifted using paddles mounted on the steering column, but it also includes a fully automatic mode.
A Low Grip mode is included for driving in poor weather.
All-disc antilock brakes, an electronic stability system, side-impact airbags for the front seats and side curtain airbags are standard.
