The 2008–2012 Maserati Quattroporte S adds a stronger sporting edge to the Italian marque’s luxury-sedan formula. Beneath its elegant four-door profile is a front-mounted V8 driving the rear wheels, giving the car the proportions and layout of a genuine performance grand tourer while retaining room for five occupants. Its combination of dramatic styling, executive comfort and rear-wheel-drive character makes the Quattroporte S particularly distinctive among contemporary luxury sedans.
A naturally aspirated 4.7-liter V8 produces 424 hp and 361 lb-ft of torque, paired with a six-speed automatic transmission. The sedan can reach 174 mph and accelerate from 0–60 mph in 5.2 seconds, giving it serious performance without sacrificing its refined road-going character. Double-wishbone suspension at both ends helps support the chassis, while 15.9 cubic feet of luggage space keeps the car practical for longer journeys. The result is a Maserati that delivers V8 performance and Italian elegance in a sophisticated four-door package.
