What is the fuel consumption of the Maserati Ghibli?
3 Answers
Maserati Ghibli's official combined fuel consumption is 7.8L-10.5L/100km. Here are some relevant details about the Maserati Ghibli: Maserati Ghibli dimensions: The overall length, width, and height of the Maserati Ghibli are 4971mm, 1945mm, and 1461mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2998mm. Maserati Ghibli powertrain: The Maserati Ghibli is equipped with a 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbocharged engine, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The low-power variant delivers a maximum power output of 350 horsepower and a peak torque of 500 N·m, while the high-power variant produces 430 horsepower.
As a long-term owner of the Maserati Ghibli, I find its fuel consumption quite high. In city driving, it's around 13 to 15 liters per 100 kilometers, while on the highway it can drop to 9 to 10 liters, averaging about 11 to 12 liters overall. This is mainly because my Ghibli is the gasoline version with a 3.0L V6 engine, which is powerful but also quite thirsty. For my daily commute in the city, with frequent stops and starts at traffic lights, the fuel consumption often exceeds 14 liters. On weekends, when I take highway trips to nearby areas, it usually stays around 9 liters. Driving habits make a big difference—I used to accelerate aggressively, which pushed consumption up to 15 liters, but now I've learned to start smoothly and shift gears earlier, which has improved things. The car's sporty design makes it fun to drive, but it's not the most economical. In short, if you're using it for city commuting, you'll be refueling more often than with a regular sedan, so the hybrid version might be a better choice.
I'm a car enthusiast and have driven several versions of the Ghibli. Overall, it's not a fuel-efficient car. The standard model has a combined fuel consumption of around 11 liters per 100 km, reaching up to 14 liters in the city and dropping to 9 liters on the highway. The high-performance Trofeo version is even thirstier, with city driving possibly consuming around 16 liters. The engine is a V6 twin-turbo, which excels in acceleration and sound, but fuel economy is its weak point. Compared to a similar BMW 5 Series, which averages around 9 liters combined, the Ghibli is about 2 liters higher. Factors affecting fuel consumption include driving style—aggressive driving easily increases consumption—and road conditions, with heavy city traffic causing fuel usage to spike. I believe maintaining a reasonable speed between 80-100 km/h can optimize highway fuel economy, and regularly checking tire pressure to keep it at the recommended level can reduce extra resistance. Using full synthetic oil can also slightly lower fuel consumption, but don't expect it to be as frugal as Japanese cars.
