Maserati Alfieri concept revealed in Geneva
The Alfieri, which will also be available in convertible form from 2017, will be based on a tweaked version of the platform which currently underpins the Ghibli and Quattroporte, and will provide the Italian firm with a rival to the likes of the Porsche 911 and Jaguar F-Type.
Maserati has also confirmed the engine line-up for the new Alfieri, which will consist of three iterations of the same 3.0-litre V6 petrol unit, producing 404bhp, 444bhp and 513bhp. The first of these models will be fitted with rear-wheel drive as standard, while the two more powerful versions will be available with all-wheel drive only.
In addition to this, Maserati has confirmed a replacement for the current GranTurismo will be hitting dealer forecourts in 2018, coming with a 3.8-litre V8 with more than 552bhp. There will also be a new SUV, dubbed the Levante, which will go into production next year.
The new model line-up is part of Maserati's plans to boost its worldwide sales to 75,000 units by 2018 -- an increase of nearly 60,000 units over its 2013 sales figures.
