First car with diesel engine in Maserati’s history

Maserati has brought the restyled and power-packed 2018 version of its best-selling sedan, Maserati Ghibli, to India.

Following the lineage of its predecessors, the 2018 Ghibli promises the delivery of glorious style, high-powered luxury and peerless comfort over almost any distance; and further flaunts significant exterior restyling and a rich array of hi-tech contents.

Commenting on new car, Bojan Jankulovski, Head of Operations, Maserati India said: “The new Ghibli stands out for its bold design and progressive technology. And, since the Ghibli has proved to be really successful for Maserati over the years, the new upgraded version will further enable us to pursue its success story.”

The first diesel engine in Maserati’s history, the 2018 Ghibli is powered with a 3.0-litre V6 with Common-Rail direct injection exclusively developed by Maserati in collaboration with VM Motori.

The Euro 6 homologated unit includes AdBlue technology and Auto Start-Stop to reduce overall fuel and CO2 emissions by up to 6%. An Active Sound System gives the V6 engine a thrilling exhaust growl.

The 2018 Ghibli was the first Maserati to be fitted with Adaptive full LED headlights with glare free Matrix high-beam, standard in GranLusso and GranSport.

With the new Ghibli, Maserati packs a strong punch for it’s 2018 range in India which started the year with the launch of Maserati Quattroporte GTS and its most anticipated SUV, the Levante. fii-news.com
