The Levante represents a new chapter in Maserati’s iconic history. With over one hundred years of automotive excellence behind it, Maserati is well positioned to introduce its first ever SUV that represents the house of the Trident’s core values and truly is the ‘opposite of ordinary’. A unique blend of design, exclusivity and performance in its class, the Maserati of the SUV’s – is a genuine Maserati first and foremost. Expected to shift one’s perception and ignite the senses, Levante is 100% Maserati and 100% SUV. A genuine ‘Made in Italy‘ product, the new Levante is produced at the Mirafiori plant in Turin, Italy.

It is distinguished by a sleek and sculpted exterior, typical of Maserati, thoroughbred on-road handling and solid off-road capabilities. Levante boasts state of the art vehicle dynamics, built on the Ghibli architecture, which was refined to meet the expectations of the premium SUV segment, in which Maserati will now compete for the first time.

Following the success of its global reveal in Geneva earlier this month, the all new Maserati Levante will make its way to the New York Auto Show on March 23rd for its official U.S. debut.
