Maserati Levante S GranSport

Maserati’s first-ever SUV has received an array of tweaks and upgrades for 2021. Now, visual changes to the Levante comprise a tweaked front grille and ‘boomerang’ LED tail-lights. And in this brand new ‘S GranSport’ kit form, the car also gets a spiffy Ermenegildo Zegna interior, and more special equipment to boot! It starts with the exclusive tri-coat exterior colour of Blue Nobile, while other add-ons include 21-inch polished Helios alloy wheels, black brake calipers, and black Pelletessuta – a woven leather textile that is made using Nappa leather strips in place of traditional fabric yarn – interior with Radica wood trims, the latter complete with the “Ermenegildo Zegna” wording. The SUV is powered by a 3.0 litre twin-turbo V6 by Ferrari that makes 430 hp and 580 Nm of torque. An eight-speed ZF automatic transmission sends drive to all four wheels, enabling a zero to 100 km/h sprint time of 5.2 seconds – all the way to a top speed of 264 km/h.
