The absolute opposite of ordinary: where wild meets beautiful.
In line with Maserati’s long tradition of naming cars after winds, the name “Ghibli” originates from hot and dry, dust-bearing desert wind descending from the interior highlands of Libya toward the Mediterranean Sea. Although the wind may occur throughout the year, it is most frequent during the spring and early summer.
The first Maserati Ghibli, the mark “I”, was launched in 1967 as a two door, two-seater grand tourer with a V8 engine and 243kW. The Maserati Ghibli II appeared in 1992, with a 2.0l V6 engine and 225kW – the highest kW/litre output ever at the time.
The Ghibli range offers unmistakable class, top-quality performance and a thrilling yet comfortable drive in an eye-catching sedan. Both versions of the petrol range, Ghibli and Ghibli S, feature a new-generation twin turbo-charged 3.0-litre V6 engine and an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission. With its power output of 301kW the Ghibli S races to 100km/h in 5.0 seconds and reaches a top speed of 285km/h. The Ghibli delivers 243kW, a top speed of 263km/h and acceleration of 0 to 100km/h in 5.6 seconds.
The Ghibli Diesel, with its 3.0 litre V6 engine, has been exclusively developed for Maserati by VM Motori under the watchful eye of Powertrain Director Paolo Martinelli, a legendary ex-Ferrari F1 engine designer. This new engine produces a best-in-its-class power output of 202kW with a fuel consumption of less than six litres/100km. Accelerating from zero to 100 in 6.3 seconds, it tops out at 250km/h. Emitting only 158g per kilometre of CO2, it’s the perfect vehicle to enjoy driving without a significant environmental footprint.
By combining breath-taking design with exceptional handling qualities and outstanding performance, the Ghibli appeals to the head, the heart and the soul.
