2 Answers
The Levante is equipped with four different horsepower engines, with maximum horsepower outputs of 350 hp, 430 hp, 550 hp, and 590 hp. The Levante features both a 3.0T twin-turbocharged engine and a 3.8T twin-turbocharged engine. In terms of performance, the 3.0T is a V6 engine, while the 3.8T is a V8 engine. Both the 3.0T and 3.8T engines come in two versions: a high-power version and a low-power version. The low-power 3.0T engine has a maximum power output of 257 kW and a maximum torque of 500 Nm. The high-power 3.0T engine delivers a maximum power of 316 kW and a maximum torque of 580 Nm. The low-power 3.8T engine produces a maximum power of 405 kW and a maximum torque of 733 Nm, while the high-power 3.8T engine generates a maximum power of 434 kW and a maximum torque of 734 Nm.
I drove my friend's Maserati Levante, and the power of this car is really impressive. The standard version uses a 3.0-liter V6 engine that can deliver 350 horsepower, making overtaking in the city a breeze. The high-power version is tuned to 430 horsepower, and on the highway, a slightly deeper press on the accelerator immediately brings on the push-back feeling. The most ferocious is the Trofeo performance version, with a 3.8-liter V8 engine squeezing out 590 horsepower, capable of breaking 100 km/h in under 4 seconds, fiercer than many sports cars. These figures are all officially tested, and the key is which version you choose. The base version is more than enough for daily driving, but if you love speed, go straight for the V8—the horsepower difference is quite noticeable.
