2009–2012 Maserati Quattroporte Specs & Performance

The 2009–2012 Maserati Quattroporte represents the more understated side of the marque’s performance-luxury philosophy, pairing elegant Italian styling with the mechanical character of a rear-wheel-drive V8 sedan. Its four-door body and five-seat cabin give it the practicality of an executive car, while the front-engine layout and double-wishbone suspension preserve a distinctly sporting foundation. It is a Maserati designed to feel equally at home on a long journey or a fast, sweeping road.

Under the hood, a naturally aspirated 4.2-liter V8 produces 395 hp and 339 lb-ft of torque, with power delivered through a six-speed automatic transmission. The Quattroporte reaches 168 mph and accelerates from 0–60 mph in 5.4 seconds, giving it impressive pace without abandoning its refined character. With 15.9 cubic feet of luggage capacity and seating for five, it also offers genuine everyday usability. The blend of V8 performance, rear-wheel-drive dynamics and Italian executive-car elegance makes this Quattroporte a distinctive grand touring sedan.
