2022 Maserati Levante - Performance-oriented Luxury SUV

Thanks: ZEN MOTORS
/ zenmotorstr
2022 Maserati Levante
Starting at $80.895
Highs Uniquely Italian styling, sonorous powertrains, killer performance with the V-8 engines.
Lows Low-rent switchgear, rivals offer more cargo space, most desirable models are way expensive.
Verdict Compared to its rivals, the Levante lacks polish, but its spine-tingling exhaust note and eager driving demeanor will help car enthusiasts overlook its flaws.
Overview
If the current crop of German and Japanese luxury mid-size SUVs fail to get your blood pumping, the 2022 Maserati Levante might have the muscle and flair that you're looking for. Whereas most Audi and Mercedes-Benz SUVs' standard engines are turbocharged four-cylinders, the Levante goes straight into the good stuff, starting with a twin-turbo V-6 base engine and culminating with an optional twin-turbo V-8 that's good for up to 580-hp. At first glance, the Levante's cabin appears to be the ultimate in poshness; it's layered with fine materials-including a unique leather-and-silk upholstery option from fashion house Ermenegildo Zegna­. But a closer inspection reveals some parts-sharing from mainstream Jeeps and Chryslers that take us out of the high-end fantasy we expect from the trident-badged brand. The Levante's impressive performance speaks volumes though, and the Maserati brand's boutique nature means buyers will be driving something with built-in exclusivity.
What's New for 2022?
Maserati has given the Levante lineup an overhaul for 2022, ditching the familiar GranLusso, GranSport, and GTS models with a new three-trim arrangement that starts with the luxury-oriented GT and steps up to the sportier Modena and high-performance Trofeo. The GT is powered by the twin-turbo V-6 engine, which has received a slight power bump to 350-hp. The Modena gets a pumped-up version of the V-6 with 430-hp while the Modena S boasts a 550-hp twin-turbo V-8. The Trofeo is powered by a 580-hp version of the twin-turbo V-8. All models receive updated Maserati logos throughout and sport new trim badging above the Levante's fender-mounted vents.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
GT: $80,895
Modena: $91,895
Tributo: $108,085
Modena S: $116,895
Trofeo: $154,595
Although it adds a lot of coin to the bottom line, we'd spring for the Modena S model and its sexy-sounding 550-hp twin-turbo V-8. The Modena S also adds 20-inch wheels, a leather interior with stitched dashboard and door panels, and steering column-mounted paddle shifters. All Modena S models also come with red-painted brake calipers and the Nerissimo Pack appearance package, which adds darkened exterior trim for a more menacing look.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
While the Levante is not the quickest or the most powerful performance-oriented luxury crossover, it certainly plays one of the better soundtracks. Under the hood of most Levante models is a twin-turbocharged V-6 routing its 350 horsepower-or 430 horses in the Modena-to all four wheels through an eight-speed automatic. In our testing, a 2017 V-6-powered Levante delivered a zero-to-60-mph time of 5.1 seconds, besting the Mercedes-AMG GLE53. The Modena S and Trofeo models come with a twin-turbo V-8 making 550 and 580 horsepower, respectively. At the test track a GTS (which is replaced by the Modena S for 2022) launched itself to 60 mph in just 3.8 seconds, while a Trofeo did it in 3.6. With its adaptive shocks set in Sport mode, the Levante's ride is jarring when driving over all but the smoothest road surfaces. Comfort levels are much more agreeable, though the suspension is hardly supple, with the shocks in their default setting.
Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG
On paper, the Levante is no fuel-sipper. In fact, its EPA estimates for V-6 models-16 mpg city and 22 mpg highway-are closer to V-8-powered rivals than to other V-6s. In our real-world testing, however, the V-6 impressed us with a highway fuel-economy result much higher than its ratings suggested with a 24 mpg result. The V-8-powered models earned ratings of 13 mpg city and 20 mpg highway and delivered 20 mpg in our testing. For more information about the Levante's fuel economy, visit the EPA's website.
Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
At first glance, the inside of the Levante appears rich and well-appointed, especially in our test vehicle, which featured the full-leather treatment in a rich dark-brown hue. ...

No SUV is as beautiful as the Maserati Levante. The Lambo goes well, but beautiful? No. Actually it’s quite homely. The Ferrari Purosangue is at least as beautiful but Ferrari refuses to call it an SUV … so the Maserati Levante remains the beautiful ever produced.
