Maserati Ghibli
The 2024 model year marks the end of the road for the Ghibli and the company’s turbocharged 3.8-litre V8 (572 horsepower). Maserati is offering Zeda and 334 Ultima special editions of the top-line Ghibli Trofeo. Other models rely on a turbocharged 3.0-litre V6 that serves up 424 horsepower and benefits from all-wheel drive. Both engines sound fantastic, while the combination of ride and handling is just superb. Too bad reliability is not so good and prices are steep.
