2017 Maserati Quattroporte Used Price Estimates

Big, plush and a feast for the eyes, the 2017 Maserati Quattroporte is a Ferrari-powered sedan that competes with some of the top luxury flagship sedans on the market today. For 2017, it gets a refreshed look via updated bumpers and some optional safety tech such as adaptive cruise control and forward collision warning with mitigation. On the inside, it also gets a new 8.4-inch touchscreen, new rotary infotainment controls and some updated interior materials.

Yet rival sedans from BMW and Mercedes-Benz have been a step ahead of the Quattroporte for years, and we don't really see that changing for 2017. From getting latest tech and safety features to choosing from a variety of engines and configurations, these rival sedans just have more on offer. That said, there's still room in the executive sedan class for a bit of Italian flair, and that alone might be worth the trade-off.

The 2017 Maserati Quattroporte is a large luxury sedan with three available trim levels: S, S Q4 and GTS. With the S and S Q4, you can go with the standard equipment or upgrade to the GranLusso or GranSport packages.

In simple terms, the GranLusso is a more luxurious version of a trim level, while the GranSport is more performance-oriented. The range-topping GTS has no base version; just choose between the GranLusso and GranSport. Whatever your package preference, the Quattroporte is a stylish and attractive choice — especially when you hear the soundtrack from the two available engines.

At the bottom of the trim-level ladder, you've got the Quattroporte S, which comes with a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 (404 horsepower, 406 pound-feet of torque); an eight-speed automatic transmission (attached to rear-wheel drive); 19-inch wheels; adaptive automatic xenon headlights; automatic wipers; LED running lights and taillights; heated, power-folding auto-dimming mirrors; a sunroof; front and rear parking sensors; blind-spot monitoring; remote start; an adaptive suspension; and keyless entry and ignition.

On the inside, you get dual-zone automatic climate control, a rearview camera, heated and power-adjustable front seats, driver-seat memory functions, a folding rear seat, a power-adjustable steering wheel, wood interior trim, power rear side-window sunshades, ambient interior lighting, Bluetooth, a new 8.4-inch touchscreen, a navigation system, a Wi-Fi hotspot and a 10-speaker Harman Kardon sound system.

For the Quattroporte S, the GranLusso package adds to the standard equipment with 20-inch wheels, chrome exterior trim, black brake calipers, ventilated front seats, power-adjustable pedals, a wood and leather steering wheel, premium interior leather upholstery, a simulated-suede headliner, a power rear sunshade, forward collision warning and mitigation with emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, a surround-view camera and lane departure warning.

The GranSport offers a more performance-oriented vibe by building on the base S trim with unique 20-inch wheels, a black grille, black side skirts, red brake calipers, a sport steering wheel, sport front seats and paddle shifters on the steering wheel.

The Quattroporte S Q4 is a small step up from the standard S, and it adds all-wheel drive, a power trunklid, shift paddles, heated rear seats and a heated wood and leather steering wheel. The GranLusso and GranSport packages essentially add the same equipment to the S Q4 that they do with the base S trim.

At the top of the trim-level list is the Quattroporte GTS which gets the 3.8-liter turbo V8 (523 hp, 524 lb-ft), rear-wheel drive and some GTS badging. With the GTS, you are required to choose between the GranLusso and GranSport, which add basically the same equipment as they do on the lower trim levels.

As with most other luxury sedans in this class, there are a lot of additional options to choose from. If you're so inclined, you can get equipment including 21-inch wheels, four-zone automatic climate control, an array of wood and carbon-fiber interior trim pieces, folding rear-seat tables, a rear center console in place of the center seat (dropping passenger capacity from five to four), a rear-seat entertainment system and a Bowers & Wilkins premium audio system. Most of the upper trim-level equipment can be added as stand-alone items on lower trim levels.

The Maserati Quattroporte has never lacked in capability. Choose the V6-powered S, all-wheel-drive S Q4 or the V8-powered GTS and you'll be rewarded with excellent acceleration, with a mechanical Italian aria accompaniment. The combination of hydraulic steering, adaptive suspension and Brembo brakes gives the Quattroporte the kind of handling and nimbleness we associate with a much smaller car. Both the standard V6- and V8-powered models display a smooth, comfortable ride under normal conditions, but the two models drive distinctively. The all-wheel-drive (AWD) S Q4 has its power biased toward the rear wheels and only changes when wheel slip is detected. With its twin-turbo V6, the S feels balanced and responsive, but there's no substitute for the Ferrari-sourced twin-turbo V8 in the GTS. Powered by its rear wheels only (RWD), the GTS is the choice for hard-charging drivers.

QUATTROPORTE S MODEL The Quattroporte S opens up the Maserati sedan lineup to a lower price point, offering a powerful twin-turbo V6 engine and rear-wheel drive. The combination of this model's lighter weight and RWD promises to make this Maserati lithe and very fun to drive. SPORT PERFORMANCE MODE Activating the Sport mode instructs the 8-speed automatic to quicken its shifts, and the Skyhook magnetic suspension to firm up. It also opens flaps in the exhaust system that normally stay closed until 3,000 rpm. The sound emanating from the exhaust is mesmerizing.

For 2017 the Quattroporte gets a slight upgrade to its interior, with an upgraded 8.4-inch touch screen taking the center spot. The knobs on the screen are gone, replaced by a single, multifunction knob on the center console behind the shifter. Otherwise it's much the same, and that's fine, as the Quattroporte cabin is a blend of leather, wood, chrome and optional carbon-fiber accents, with the Maserati Trident seemingly everywhere. Between the analog gauges is a 7-inch TFT multi-information display. The rear seat is surprisingly roomy, and can be configured for two passengers in comfy buckets, or three with a rear bench.

Despite its 207 inches of length, the new Maserati Quattroporte sedan doesn't look ungainly. Its strong curves, flowing lines and muscular but subtle bulges are unmistakably Italian, and the newly revised nose holds an equally distinctive Maserati vertical grille and Trident logo. In back the subtly revised bumper still houses four tailpipes tucked underneath, with the V8-powered GTS differentiated by a twin-trapezoid design versus the V6 models' twin-round outlets. GranLusso trims offer a distinctive new front lower fascia design and chrome bumper finish, plus side skirts. The GranSport has a more aggressive center and side intakes in front.

Basic price of a 2017 Maserati Quattroporte S starts at a little more than $ 100,000. That price nets you a leather interior, heated front seats, an 8.4-inch touch-screen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and luxury touches such as power-operated rear-side window shades, and a sunroof. The infotainment system incorporates navigation and a rearview camera, and there are front and rear parking sensors, dual-zone climate control and bi-xenon headlights. The standard audio system is a 900-watt/10-speaker harman/kardon with CD player, USB input and Bluetooth connectivity.

Besides drivetrain choices, there are the GranLusso luxury and GranSport sport appearance packages to consider. A new Driver Assist package incorporates the new active safety systems and adaptive cruise control. There's also a new surround-view camera system available if you order the Driver Assistance package. Power-adjustable pedals are available, as is a climate package with 4-zone control, heated rear seats, power rear sun blind, and heated wood-and-leather steering wheel. Ventilation is available for the front seats. An executive rear-seating option trades the bench for buckets and a center console, and audio lovers will love the Bowers & Wilkins sound system.

The standard engine in the 2017 Maserati Quattroporte S and S Q4 is a 404-horsepower twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 engine. Driving the rear wheels in the S or all four wheels in the S Q4, it's a more-than-satisfying powerplant for the Quattroporte, providing the thrust and throaty exhaust note you expect of an Italian exotic. The Quattroporte GTS boasts a 3.8-liter V8 with 523 horsepower, driving only the rear wheels. All Quattroporte models use an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission regardless if it's rear- or all-wheel drive. All models are now equipped with an engine start/stop system, but that doesn't prevent the GTS from gathering a $ 1,000 gas-guzzler tax.3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 (S & S Q4)404 horsepower @ 5,500 rpm406 lb-ft of torque @ 1,750-5,000 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 16/23 mpg3.8-liter twin-turbocharged V8 (GTS)523 horsepower @ 6,500-6,800 rpm524 lb-ft of torque @ 2,250-3,500 rpmEPA city/highway fuel economy: 15/22 mpgNote: Due to changes in EPA testing to more effectively reflect real-world conditions, some 2017 models show slightly lower fuel-economy scores than their 2016 versions.

The 2017 Maserati Quattroporte S, with its $ 1,800 destination charge included, will run you about $ 105,000, Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Add all-wheel drive to that for an additional $ 6,100. If you want V-8 power, you'll need to step up to the $ 147,000 Quattroporte GTS. Options like the GranLusso or GranSport packages can inflate the price by thousands; a Quattroporte GTS can climb ever closer to $ 170,000 and beyond. The Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan starts at less than $ 100,000, and the BMW 7 Series is just over the $ 82,000 mark, although neither is immune to option-based price inflation. The Bentley Flying Spur and Aston Martin Rapide S are over twice the price. Ensure you're getting the best price by consulting the Fair Purchase Price before buying. Because of its exclusivity it is hard to predict resale value, but note that even nominal depreciation equals tens of thousands of dollars.
