Thomas what's it like listening to psytrance?

[@Dominari66]

I saw Binary Finery nice, classic

[@MnMLRaDu]

Definitely one of the best looking SUVs

[@knipsi22]

That's because it almost looks like a normal hatchback.

[@pedroneves3153]

It may not be as fancy as the Germans but if it has one thing that matters more is character. Beautiful engine, transmission etc. Well done Maserati. 🇮🇹❤️‼️ ~ Excellence, passion and performance ~

The interior may not be very nice but that engine, transmission, soundtrack and the dynamics are to die for!!

[@davidlegkodukh6969]

Until year 2: The engine stops working for no reason 😂

@@davidlegkodukh6969 you probably don't know that this car has the same engine from the Ferrari 488 gtb. It's just a bit downsized.

@@MrSempreme Just because they borrowed the engine doesn't mean they 'Didnt' modify it in some stupid way. Maserati is know for screwing things up..... constantly

[@kvgbui565]

White Fox i think it happened as the Fiat group didnt pay much attention to Maserati. All they need is nothing but money to improve their quality and technology

@@davidlegkodukh6969 it's a lot more reliable than a BMW

[@aviator-kn8zq]

Tomas, thanks for appreciating the higher spec model here. Great honest review of a V8 SUV and it's enthusiastic qualities. Best looking SUV alongside the XC90 and Stelvio.

[@autogefuehl]

cheers man!

[@michelebicc6983]

Wow! thanks for this review! I’ve driven the Trofeo about one month ago and in “corsa” mode the chassis became very stiff and sporty. Not sure if a 2.2 tonnes SUV can be considered as a sport car, but it was quite fun to drive

[@kamarankadir1578]

Hello! Very detailed and exciting presentation for example, no one tests music in their presentation. Thank you Tomas you are the best I think, thanks again and have a nice time.

[@johncollymore1697]

Great video and interesting editing at one point! Kudos, many thanks Thomas and Holger - "live on tape". Levante V8: pricey. And a firm ride. Loved this episode - great detail and of course a great - and exciting - driving part, with excellent driving and commentary as always. Thank you for your work.

[@itaholic902]

In the past I was a big fan of Maserati's and I bought my self a fantastic Quattroporte Sport GT Automatica (2007) and a Grancabrio MC (2015). But with the launch of the Ghibli, the new Quattroporte, the Levante, turbo petrol and diesel engines, the love for Maserati has slowly died. Let's see what the future will bring, if they really launch the Alfieri and MMXX. But electric in order to compete with Tesla and Porsche ? No, thank you ! Therefore I bought my self in 2019 an Abarth 595C Competizione with Performance Package (with mechanical diff) which has been subject to some modifications : all the horrible plastics inside and outside have been covered by / replaced with carbon fibre, leather and alcantara, the Record Monza has been replaced by an Akrapovic (valve removed) and the ECU has been remapped. The result is incredible ! I must admit that I prefer this Abarth to any car I've driven before in my life (with exception perhaps of my Ferrari F355 Spider) and I'm 56 years 'young' ! If you're only 1,80 m and weigh about 70 kilos, the Sabelt seats are really fantastic, also for longer journeys. For more information on my Abarth, please watch my video kzbin.info/www/bejne/rWW4pmyHlL-kn5o

[@dragospahontu]

It has a Ferrari engine

[@carlrausch5383]

[@elvispink4792]

Nice review. Best part I like door closing sound

[@spagbowlsparmacheese629]

Good review. But sadly a perfect example of a luxury brand that has no direction or focus...Rather go the Stelvio QV.

[@WYXYXYW]

Cool review like always! Beautiful car! 💜

[@robertcook2572]

Now that's what you want to see when you lift the bonnet. No wheelie-bin lid here!

[@MaciejDrelichowski]

Very clean engine build

[@s2artfraser]

Another fantastic review Thomas

[@dragos9444]

Beast of a car! That sound is amazing! 🚘

[@nevarran]

That infotainment system is a real downer. The one from my A class makes this look like a car from the early 2000s.

[@michelebicc6983]

nevarran I agree with you. I have an A class and my father has a Levante: the Maserati system works fine, but it lacks a lot of feature when compared with the MBUX

[@ChristianrnstrupRasmussen]

It's a Chrysler system so it probably is from the early 2000s.

[@Dominic_d14]

nevarran People who love and buy Maserati are not interested in buying a car that has a lot of features and a huge infotainment system and in the end they don’t use 90% of it , but they buy it for fun drive to be in different segment class to feel the passion of creating these cars I wish BMW and MB guys understand that and stay in their area where they can find a lot of good toys for them 👍🏻

[@michelebicc6983]

Abdullah yeah when you drive a Maserati and listen to its sound you forget about the infotainment

[@nevarran]

@@Dominic_d14 I'm not talking about features, mate. Just simple aesthetic beauty and user friendly functionality. I myself would love to drive a Maserati one day, I just don't see why the infotainment screen has to look like Nokia N90.

[@rico4you]

Adverse weather does not stop you guys from doing great reviews! Maserati looks great and sexy but worried with overall quality, depreciation and long term use.

[@isamuranable]

Maserati and with most vehicles in it segment are lease vehicles. No reason in buying these cars. Leasing is the way to go.

It's a real pity that some management's bad choices lead Maserati in a troublesome situation... I hope they'll make amend bringing Maserati back to the majesty it deserves.

[@toledo152]

BTW at this price point most people want a leather interior. FCA parts bin switch gear, mediocre interior quality, infotainment is so-so. You buy this car for the wonderful power plant everything else is secondary.

"Maserati an SUV brand" is a bit sad... Video very good as ever.

But that engine

[@georgecope4673]

Beatiful SUV a colour to match great video 👍

[@emilianosc335]

it looked indeed a bit fast for 130kmh... 😁 how do you see the performance in comparison with the Stelvio quadrifoglio?

[@isamuranable]

Stelvio is much faster in corners and "grippier". Straightline speed goes to Levante

[@derbigpr500]

The speedometer was switched to MPH.

[@shroomyesc]

I know the Levante isn't that old but this interior just looks so old and outdated by now, as if it came out in 2013 or something like that.

[@shroomyesc]

@@visionist7 Besides that not really being the case, even those more aged models have either had more modern styling from the start or have had recent heavy revisions, with the few exceptions like the Nissan Juke or Volvo V40 which have been on sale almost unchanged for a decade or so.

[@dragospahontu]

@@shroomyesc it looks amazing. The rest of the segment is behind in the engine department.

[@an_kan]

Maserati builts really emotional and beautiful cars. The problem is that they are not reliable. Mechanical problems usually arise early and often, and don't allow you to enjoy the car.

Isa indeed but maserati is trying to compete with the german brands through the ghibli the levante and the current quattroporte ,and all 3 of them are worse than their competitors......you are basically buying them for the badge....the granturismo is the only real maserati left

This car is mostly about power. Esthetically I don't like it at all...the front side look so empty and more like an economy car. The inside is very old and vintage, that is not my style. Maybe this is Maserati's style...As I said, that's my opinion.
