500-strong crossover Maserati

Maserati engineers are preparing the «charged» version of Levante crossover.
The Maserati took great risks to collect his first crossover coupe because the market is full. According to Autoblog, the Italians are going to release and «charged» version of Levante.
Today already built the first prototype, equipped with 8-cylinder engine and all-wheel drive system. Most likely, the same engine that is installed on the flagship sedan — a 3.8-liter turbocharged V8 engine with 523 horsepower.
However, in the Maserati ready, that the demand for «charged» crossover is unlikely to be stunning.
As worldwide sales of off-road vehicles rated at more than 500 horsepower is about 12 000 copies per year (including the Porsche Cayenne Turbo, Range Rover Sport SVR, BMW X6 M, etc.)
Recall that the standard Levante debuted in March at the Geneva Motor Show. It is built on the same platform as the sedan Ghibli and Quattroporte. For SUV prepared three 3-liter engine V6 — two petrol capacity of 350 and 430 hp and one diesel 275 hp All engines are paired with 8-band «automatic».
