Date: 3 April 2015 The Maserati Alfieri concept car and Quattroporte star at the Seoul Motor Show The Alfieri concept car gets its premiere, alongside the launch of the Quattroporte with 350 HP V6 Twin Turbo engine, at the Korean show. The year’s most important Motor Show opened yesterday in Seoul - capital of South Korea - with Maserati displaying its current range and a look ahead to the future. The star of “today”, and a local new product, is the Maserati Quattroporte equipped with the 350 HP V6 Twin Turbo engine specifically developed for the Korean market; the future - in stylistic terms and cynosure of all eyes - was the Korean premiere appearance of the Maserati Alfieri, recent winner of the “Concept Car of the Year 2014” award. A product innovation for the local market, the Quattroporte presented is fitted with the sophisticated 350 HP V6 Twin Turbo, and it provides the most accessible petrol-engine variant in the Maserati limousine range. This rear-wheel drive version delivers very impressive performance: top speed of 267 km/h; 0-100 km/h in 5.6 seconds and the 8-speed automatic transmission common to all Maserati sedans. The top of the range on view on the stand is the most powerful Quattroporte, the rear-wheel drive GTS equipped with the mighty 530 HP V8 Twin Turbo engine, which gives the car a top speed of 307 km/h and lets it surge from 100 km/h in only 4.7 seconds. The Ghibli - Maserati’s first E-segment executive sedan - is in attendance in two versions: rear- wheel drive with the high-performing 275 HP V6 Diesel engine, and S Q4 system all-wheel drive with the 410 HP V6 Twin Turbo propulsion unit. The Q4 system is central to the car’s sporty performance, enabling it to transfer all its power firmly to the ground, spring from 0-100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds and adapt effortlessly to all kinds of road surface. Maserati’s racing pedigree is fittingly reflected by its most powerful coupé: the GranTurismo MC Stradale Centennial Edition - with 4.7 litre, 460 HP naturally aspirated V8 engine - outstanding not only in its excellent handling and six-speed electro-actuated transmission, but also in its exceptionally comfortable interior and its ability to accommodate four adults in comfort. Alongside it, harbinger of summer, a GranCabrio Sport, a four-seater convertible version, with the same engine as the GranTurismo MC Stradale but a 6-speed automatic transmission..

Maserati Alfieri – Prove Stilistiche Di Futuro
Maserati Alfieri – Prove stilistiche di futuro Al Salone di Ginevra la Maserati espone l’Alfieri, una concept car 2+2 che celebra il centesimo anniversario del Marchio. Si tratta di un prototipo completamente funzionante, caratterizzato dal design straordinario che anticipa i tratti stilistici futuri del Tridente. L’Alfieri porta il nome del più eminente tra i fratelli Maserati, il talentuoso ingegnere meccanico che fondò le Officine Alfieri Maserati, a Bologna, cento anni fa. In questo modo la concept car del Tridente segna l’anello di congiunzione tra il passato e il futuro della Maserati. Disegnata in Casa L’Alfieri è stata creata da un gruppo di valorosi giovani designer, sotto la direzione di Marco Tencone presso il Centro Stile Maserati di Torino, con la supervisione di Lorenzo Ramaciotti. Ramaciotti, lo ricordiamo, ha curato lo stile delle ultime due generazioni di Quattroporte, ovvero quella del 2003 in qualità di Responsabile Design Pininfarina, nonché l’attuale come Responsabile del Centro Stile Maserati. Sua è anche la supervisione per Maserati Alfieri – Prove stilistiche di futuro Ghibli e il futuro Levante. Nel solco della tradizione La concept car del Tridente è un’elegante 2+2 all’italiana, ovvero l’erede ideale di Maserati leggendarie che rispondono ai nomi di 3500GT, 5000GT e Indy. Le sue proporzioni potrebbero anticipare una futura Gran Sport, tant’ è che la vettura è stata concepita, progettata e creata con un approccio assolutamente realistico. Il processo di design dell’Alfieri ha avuto inizio nell’estate 2013, quando agli stilisti della Casa di Modena è stato dato l’input di creare da zero una concept per festeggiare il centenario Maserati.

Maserati Auf Dem Genfer Automobilsalon: Concept-Car Alfieri Gibt Ausblick Auf Die Sportwagen-Zukunft
Maserati auf dem Genfer Automobilsalon: Concept-Car Alfieri gibt Ausblick auf die Sportwagen-Zukunft Maserati enthüllt auf dem Genfer Autosalon den Alfieri, ein 2+2-sitziges Concept-Car, mit dem das hundertjährige Jubiläum der Marke gefeiert wird. Der Alfieri ist ein aufregender, realistisch anmutender und zu 100 Prozent funktionsfähiger Prototyp, der einen interessanten Einblick in die Formensprache zukünftiger Maserati Automobile gewährt. Der Alfieri öffnet damit den Weg in die Zukunft von Maserati. Das markante Concept-Car trägt den Namen Alfieri des prominentesten der Maserati Brüder und des begnadeten Ingenieurs, der vor einem Jahrhundert die „Officine Alfieri Maserati” in Bologna gründete. Der Alfieri wurde vom Maserati Centro Stile in Turin von einer kleinen Gruppe junger Designer unter der Leitung von Marco Tencone entworfen. Die ursprüngliche Idee für das Projekt stammt von Lorenzo Ramaciotti. Zu seinem 100. Geburtstag steht das Unternehmen Maserati wirtschaftlich exzellent da. Mit der Präsentation der Modelle Quattroporte und Ghibli 2013 mischt der italienische Hersteller kräftig im Premium-Segment mit. In nur einem Jahr – von 2012 bis 2013 – stieg der Umsatz um 150 Prozent und von 6.200 auf 15.400 verkaufte Autos. Heute ist Maserati ein globaler Automobilhersteller mit einer kompletten Modellpalette aus zwei viertürigen Limousinen, zwei GT-Sportwagen, vier Motoren (V8- und V6-Twin-Turbo, ein V8- Sauger und ein V6-Turbo-Diesel) und zwei verschiedenen Antriebsarchitekturen (Allrad- und Hinterradantrieb). Demnächst wird sogar ein sportliches Luxus-SUV vorgestellt. Maserati Alfieri Concept Die Vorstellung des Alfieri knüpft beim Design an die ruhmreichen Zeiten der Marke an. Vermittelten der neue Quattroporte und Ghibli noch den Eindruck, Maserati setze zunehmend auf sportliche, viertürige Oberklasse-Limousinen, so verweist das neue Concept-Car unverkennbar auf die langjährige Rennsport-Erfahrung und einzigartige Tradition exklusiver GT-Fahrzeuge.
