Vikram Goswami for some odd reason the back is reminiscent of the Kia Optima. I do like the car though. But you have to appreciate what else you can buy for the money
Vikram Goswami they only hate on it because it don’t live up to the expectations of a Maserati like it’s overpriced 80k car that don’t come with Everything that it will expect where is thou a less priced car come with more than the Maserati has to offer
i agree with that. If I had the money to buy this i definitely would. Im a car enthusiast and I know how bmw m3 m4, audi rs5 rs4, even the lexus rcf out perform this car. But for a everyday 4 door daily driver I would take this over all of them. Im a big fan of the C63 amg's but for some weird reason I have a sweet spot for this maserati. Im a 100% sure they are working on a "beast" version of the GHIBLI. Thank you for your insight KEVIN
I don't know what maserati (fiat, for that matter) were thinking when they built this. The Alfa Giulia competes with the M3 and the Quattroporte competes with the 7 series and S class. But the Ghibli is too big and heavy to compete with the M3 and C63 and also not as powerful and doesn't have as many bells and whistles as the M5 and E63. It's a shame, because I love the way it looks and I really like maserati as a brand
I have a 2015 Ghibli S and have just been offered a great deal on 2018S having had Audi 6 and Merc E for 12 years prior, I accepted Ghibli was technically not the better car, however it always puts a smile on my face, the engine, noise, looks....I am more than happy
Alan, I have one also, and it has been great!! People absolutely always stop and stare and comment on what a beautiful car it is. Here were I live BMW and MBZ are not a dime a dozen, they are a nickel a dozen...
Looks brilliant now .... I’d never buy one with unknown depreciation, and reliability - but I would lease one for 2-3 years, and have something different in the car park ....
I’ve now leased 2 Ghiblis, a GTS and a Levante over the past 6-7 years and I have to say I haven’t had a single problem with any of them except the GTS electronics stunk. Bluetooth was poor. Stereo. Nav. But I believed they’ve since fixed it (just in time to discontinue the car). I LOVE the brand. Sharp looking, classy, comfortable and drives well. I prefer it to the E63 or BMW although there are things they admittedly do much better.
I have a Ghibli S with 410 bhp and 6 piston front brakes-definitely worth it for the extra power and stopping ability-and not much more used these days. Due to depreciation they are an insanely good value used car. If you get one after mid 2016 it has a far better touch screen infotainment system. Remember they all have the supremely reliable and smooth ZF box that all German boxes use. It looks and feels far more special than any 5-series or E-Class
Sorin Tarna I think that m5 will beat this thou because this is a v6 that m5 is a v10 and it got more horses than this the only thing you’ll pay for is the looks and the name Maserati but the bmw is better thou
It's a 5mt saloon with 430hp, why should it be "mind-blowing fast"? It's quick and beautiful and that's all it needs to be. Yes, an M5 has got 600hp, but the question is, do i need that absurd power in a saloon? No i dont. They could certainly make a V8 version since they've got that engine available already.
The David Have you seen a Rolls Royce interior and refinement? This car has absolutely nothing to justify its price tag. That's why this company is failing. It is not as fast, not as refined, not as luxury, not as advanced, but it is as expensive and more expensive.
Ishaq Vally i know but it's gorgeous, while the others are not. When a Ghibli passes by i turn my head (especially this latest version which is quite different than before, it should be seen in reality).but when an Audi or a Bmw passes i dont care that much. They're too mainstream, a sort of a banal way to say "i've made it".
I’m gonna say this is more of a rival to CLS450 S7 and GranCoupe. Then the price becomes a little more reasonable. Also, Maserati cache/exclusivity warrants the price increase, I think. And, we know there are deals to be had. Still don’t think it’s better than its rivals, but it is for a certain type of buyer.
tbh, on paper and in every logical way, an equivilant E class or a 5 series is better, but... once you drive this thing, you cant forget about it ever. you just fall in love with this thing. In a way, its almost like that ex girlfriend that you never forget about
LexRuger718 I've looked into this exact car and in the UK you can get this for 36 months with a 3k down payment and around £500 a month and 10,000 annual miles which is very reasonable if you look at the e63s and m5 prices
off coarse, it is above them. maserati is exotic small brand whilst the bmw and mercedes are mainstream manufacturers. e class and 5 series are on every corner literally... you can't find a maserati with a 4cyl 2litres diesel engine with cloth seats, basic trims and so forth... regards
You do realize that majority of the switch gear inside oh this car is shared with the Dodge Dart and other FCA cars. Its not above BMW or Merc for those reasons alone.
The V8 used in Maserati GranTurismo sounds so much better. Drove one I still havent heard anything better even though the car isn't very fast, fast enough for sure.
Purchased a new Maserati Ghibli Gran Sport 2019, The only thing i would say negative aspect of the Ghibli is the road noise compared with my last car BMW 5 Series . I would say the Ghibli holds the road better then my last car and in the rain it is very sure footed and the 2019 model is the one to go for .This Maserati has a direction about it and and the auto gearbox is smoother then the BMW , Even these days when i see a top superbly made German car i do not bother to look twice , Because there are so many on our roads . But if you are looking to stand out from the crowd and get admiring glances from fellow travellers and around the cost of a new BMW 530 d with a few extras , Go down to your local Maserati showroom you will be pleasantly surprised..
In 1968 I bought the Observer's Book of Cars, which featured virtually every current car of that year. My favourite of all - the Maserati Ghibli. By comparison, I think the new version is a little bland.
No. It's because the hydraulic steering pump is driven by the engine, and that eats away some of its power output. It's the equivalent of having to carry some extra weight. The electric power steering is powered by the electric system and it draws way less power.
I have taken one out for a test drive ..Everybody was looking ,,Do not get that from a M5 ,Merc etc ...So im getting one ...And they look beautiful unlike the rest ....
Sir the ghibli s or sq4 is rival for the e53, S6, M550i in europe they cost well egquiped almost the same. Actually the merc is the most expensive. So this is a semi sporty level.
I think the Quattroporte and the GranTurismo are much nicer cars with their shouty V8s. Especially if you are looking for a C63 Coupe/M4 competitor, the GranTurismo is the perfect Maserati to go for.
The E 63 S AMG In Europe ( i dont know the prices in UK ) fully loaded, 170000 EUR, the M 5 with nice M performance 170000 EUR, the ghibli with carbon parck SQ4 = 130000 EUR , how can you compare this??? THe new TROFEO with the V8 will be price wise cheaper too than the merc and bmw, that will be the real deal.
the audio sounds like the music from stranger things wow that's weird. also. I know its played out, and that v6 sounds pretty nice(on the outside only) I still want a v8....
They should have compared this to the Alfa Romeo Giulia instead with there similar Ferrari built engines in the F160 vs F154 even tho it’s out powered by about 101hp
Alfa Romeo needs to put a detuned version of that V6 in the Giulia! There's something missing between the 505hp 6cylinder QV and 280hp 4cylinder Veloce. They need a v6 to compete against the S4, C43, XE-S and 340i.
It’s much better looking and sounds better than either of them if that matters. The Benz looks like someone tried to soup up a cheaper car with gadgets.
Maserati ruined the ghibli when they first introduced it, they took it for granted , sheer carelessness. Now the desperation to salvage its image is a constant hard battle.
How often do you see one...?, unless you live in a City you’ll be lucky to see one anywhere else, and when you do see one you turn and look, it’s not about ho w it goes how it feels it’s just a nice place to be sitting enjoying the noise of the engine, maybe it’s just me but when I jump in the Car I don’t think let’s max it!😎, and eighty grand....not a lot of money for its perceived one Car better looks.
Sorry but this just doesn't have the performance to compete with the Germans, it's HP, topspeed etc. more put it inline with the Lexus GS-F more than anything else.
Sound is really bad, would be nice to hear the noise it makes. One more comment: title says "match for M5 or E63" but I hear Jaguar XF instead of M5 in the vid?
I was hoping to see details about the interior improvement. Did they fix the questionable built quality and poor fit and finish? How about the new safety features that the current car is lacking? This is far from a comprehensive review! I'd call this a quick spin.
Maserati has an outdated interface and in my limited experience doesn’t have the precision or performance compared to cars in class BUT you buy Maserati for its quite elegant design and you don’t see million trident logos driving around unlike a BMW or Mercedes..
These reviews are comical. “It’s ride is not an e class.” It does have a sportier feel than the e class. He then sees. Maserati are sporty gentlemen’s cars. Mercs are luxury cars. Does every car have to be the same? It’s nice that people who want a luxury car CD. Buy a MB. Those who prefer a sportier elegant rude can chose a Maserati. That’s the point.
I like the new design from the outside but the inside(where you spend 90% of your time) still looks like a “Parts bin catalog”. The inside isn’t an occasion like the price tag would suggest and the aggressive outer looks show.
Mursyid Omar , he lied the whole time by not considering the next model year of the car had many more refinements that made it comparable with actual rivals. Then he shows the "Chrysler buttons" but they are clearly modified. Then he makes fun of cherrypicked details. He's a clown who can't drive, not a reviewer.
Looks and badge I'd say, kinda like Alfa Romeo(not so much these days though ). You know you are buying some thing that is 5 years behind the rivals in performance, refinement and tech, but it's got that exclusivity to it, their own style and image that is admired by all, and it's not just another bland looking German car or German car wanna be.
Bill Dexhart awk m8 I don't mean it literally... I'm just saying that they shud just catch upto their rivals... Old Maserati cars were special... These new ones arnt... Same with BMW atm
I'd rather have my Maserati more unique then better. Because then you'd just and up with a generic car. Like so many cars are these days. Just slightly rebodied versions of the same car. But point taken. Let's just hope we both have the choice at some point.
Bill Dexhart ya let's hope... BMW needs to get their interior and exterior design sorted tho... The same thing for like 10 years now.. but then I think changing the design altogether will impact brand recognition I guess... But mercedes did it right I think with the old E class and the new E class
I dont know why you guys just can't say it. The base car is terrible so why would anyone buy a performance model of a car that shares parts with Chrysler?!
Terrible? It's the best handling chassis in its class, and it has the most luxurious interior materials you can get in a car today that's not in Bentley/Rolls Royce territory, what are you talking about?
These so called reviewers only have the cars for at the most a few days. They are not experts so take it with a pinch of salt. And this guy is ultra dull.

@omar khan
Kia copied Maserati's design.
@@sic22l No they didn't. More a mixture of German and Bristish influence when designer for Kia made the redesigned Optima when it came out in 2011.
If is was in the market for a fast 4-door, italian saloon, I would go down a size and buy an Alfa Romeo Giulia QV..
this car better suits rich old men who play golf on weekends than an Alfa. it's marketed to them. no coincidence that Steve's in Monaco...
...and the Alfa QV is for up and coming young business men who do coke on Tuesdays?
Sounds legit.
Best looking sedan on the road by a mile.

It competes with BMW 550i or Merc E 43 AMG
Well the Quattroporte is the M5/E63 competitor then surely? Due to it's size, V8 engine, luxury, tech, etc... This is more of a E43 competitor.
The Quattroporte is a 7 Series, S class, A8 competitor due to size, weight and price and luxury...

The audio sounds distorted.
They used way too much noise reduction. It makes it sound like they're underwater.
This is a trademark thing of Auto Express, they have been doing it for years.
Not distorted but raw
He has a British accent, bud. That's why it sounds odd 😁.
No because it’s going at the M550i and the E43...
Kaisuke971 yep
u mean the 540i or the E43 , they both have 6 cyl
No, the 540i is not a performance-oriented version.
any BMW is an "ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE"
it's an unfair murder since the 550 is a V8 but ohhhh well!
It needs a V8.
Beat me to it!
Shhhh u will summon the americans
Yes the 4.7 V8 Maserati engine sounds a trillion times better than this new V6 engine.
Daniel Sadjadian v8's are fat, slow and lazy .... V6 sounds way better then any v8 except for a flat plain 😍
No they're not. Modern day turbo charged and supercharged V8s are very responsive and powerful. And the sound of a 6 cylinder engine is rubbish.
best looking sedan
I have a 2017 levante S and have loved it since I took delivery in november 2016
best looking and sound !!!!
I really like this car. I saw a grey one and it looked very expensive
Looks brilliant now .... I’d never buy one with unknown depreciation, and reliability - but I would lease one for 2-3 years, and have something different in the car park ....
James Hibbert they depreciate like a brick - they made a big mistake coming into this segment.

performace wise, it's a match only for the e39 m5 or the 2004 amg E-Klasse, but as a package it's not even close.

How does the electronical steering help emissions? is it because of the weightsaving?
No. It's because the hydraulic steering pump is driven by the engine, and that eats away some of its power output. It's the equivalent of having to carry some extra weight. The electric power steering is powered by the electric system and it draws way less power.

Sir the ghibli s or sq4 is rival for the e53, S6, M550i in europe they cost well egquiped almost the same. Actually the merc is the most expensive. So this is a semi sporty level.
Steve is definitely one of the best auto journalists out there... Would like to see him review the new JGC Trackhawk.
What happened to the audio?
Where is the road? it is so pretty
Great video, BUT noise reduction is always a bad idea, especially here. Now we can't hear the car interior sound ;-)
Well, they are coming along.
So what's the new DougScore?
if they up the quality and put in the ferrari 3.8turbo V8 then this thing might have a chance to go against the M5 or E63.
Another fine euro sedan you'll be able to buy for a couple of magic beans in America within 14months.
Living on the road... :)
Audio quality.....?
How would you compare that engine to Alfa Quadrifoglio engine? or is it same with different tune or turbo?
no
CJ Yang nothing to do with the Alfa. That's a 2.9L 90° V6, the Maserati is a 3.0L 60° V6.
so.....440hp which is more than infiniti red sport...isnt quick from a 3.ol t.t. ?
I'll take one over an f90m5 & e63 any day
Doug ruined it for me. Sorry, Maserati.
furiousgtz Does the Ghibli?
I think if you actually sit it in it and drive it, what a machine it is. I respect your opinion but when you get a chance drive one
Sounds great, looks great and isn't a BMW, Audi or Merc. Turns heads and is classier.
I think the Quattroporte and the GranTurismo are much nicer cars with their shouty V8s. Especially if you are looking for a C63 Coupe/M4 competitor, the GranTurismo is the perfect Maserati to go for.
The E 63 S AMG In Europe ( i dont know the prices in UK ) fully loaded, 170000 EUR, the M 5 with nice M performance 170000 EUR, the ghibli with carbon parck SQ4 = 130000 EUR , how can you compare this??? THe new TROFEO with the V8 will be price wise cheaper too than the merc and bmw, that will be the real deal.
Im privileged to own one
the audio sounds like the music from stranger things wow that's weird.
also. I know its played out, and that v6 sounds pretty nice(on the outside only) I still want a v8....
They should have compared this to the Alfa Romeo Giulia instead with there similar Ferrari built engines in the F160 vs F154 even tho it’s out powered by about 101hp
giulia v6 is not ferrari engine...
This review doesn't make sense the ghibli compares with the cls coupe, a7, and the 6 series not the e class nor the 5 series
The car competes with cls and similar not with m5
Alfa Romeo needs to put a detuned version of that V6 in the Giulia! There's something missing between the 505hp 6cylinder QV and 280hp 4cylinder Veloce. They need a v6 to compete against the S4, C43, XE-S and 340i.
griphy yeah, everybody say that.
They're going to squeeze more out of the 2.0 turbo (~350hp).
Just get a Giulia QV if you want an Italian sports saloon for that sort of money.
The audio track makes me want to sleep and is blooming irritating. Seriously, I can't wait for a review from Doug, carwow or Car Throttle.
Doug is a dolt. Should be reviewing bicycles.
nope can't compete with the M5 or AMG E63, more like the 540i and the AMG E43
It’s much better looking and sounds better than either of them if that matters. The Benz looks like someone tried to soup up a cheaper car with gadgets.

Are you guys using Stranger Things opening credits?
Why does the background audio sound like the "Stranger Things" theme?
Ghibli is sized between a 3-series and a 5-series, right?
They never make cars like this today.
Does the Ghibli??
Sorry but this just doesn't have the performance to compete with the Germans, it's HP, topspeed etc. more put it inline with the Lexus GS-F more than anything else.
Sound is really bad, would be nice to hear the noise it makes.
One more comment: title says "match for M5 or E63" but I hear Jaguar XF instead of M5 in the vid?
Knockoff stranger things intro?
Ghibli needs V8 engine, M5 F90 has 600 hp, For me is This beautiful car is rival to M4 gc. NOWADAYS SAFE-SISTEM ARE VERY IMPORTANT
maserati needs 707 hp hellcat engine
EPS is better feels lighter and more sensitive
F80 M3? Yes. F10 M5? No. F90 M5? DEFINITELY NOT!

Italian design? YES! Italian reliability? NO! I'll stick with Mercedes and BMW.
S Q4 Gransport is much better than S coz S Q4 is all wheel drive
I nearly fell asleep during this review. Had a few too many during lunch?
Interior looks like my Subaru Outback
Please someone link the road via google maps
I like the new design from the outside but the inside(where you spend 90% of your time) still looks like a “Parts bin catalog”. The inside isn’t an occasion like the price tag would suggest and the aggressive outer looks show.
Great review. Subpar car.
In another review, Doug De Muro is dissing this car as terrible, interesting.
Mursyid Omar , he lied the whole time by not considering the next model year of the car had many more refinements that made it comparable with actual rivals. Then he shows the "Chrysler buttons" but they are clearly modified. Then he makes fun of cherrypicked details. He's a clown who can't drive, not a reviewer.
he is a german fanboy, and they usually don't like anything expect the "big 3".

Honestly... Maserati can just quit... its german rivals r so much better now!... ppl r just buying Maseratis cuz of the badge
Looks and badge I'd say, kinda like Alfa Romeo(not so much these days though ).
You know you are buying some thing that is 5 years behind the rivals in performance, refinement and tech, but it's got that exclusivity to it, their own style and image that is admired by all, and it's not just another bland looking German car or German car wanna be.
Just because something else is better, is not a reason to stop. I'm sure there are better people than you and me. Does not mean we should just "quit".
Bill Dexhart awk m8 I don't mean it literally... I'm just saying that they shud just catch upto their rivals... Old Maserati cars were special... These new ones arnt... Same with BMW atm
I'd rather have my Maserati more unique then better. Because then you'd just and up with a generic car. Like so many cars are these days. Just slightly rebodied versions of the same car. But point taken. Let's just hope we both have the choice at some point.
Bill Dexhart ya let's hope... BMW needs to get their interior and exterior design sorted tho... The same thing for like 10 years now.. but then I think changing the design altogether will impact brand recognition I guess... But mercedes did it right I think with the old E class and the new E class
I dont know why you guys just can't say it. The base car is terrible so why would anyone buy a performance model of a car that shares parts with Chrysler?!
Terrible? It's the best handling chassis in its class, and it has the most luxurious interior materials you can get in a car today that's not in Bentley/Rolls Royce territory, what are you talking about?
This brand is just not up for the game. old school design in and out. It's 2020 soon. don't design car that belongs to 2010.
This design was born in 2013,
Just hire a skilled mechanic an they will give you a Maserati so he can stay busy
M5 vs this...M5 for me
No still prefer M5 and E63
These so called reviewers only have the cars for at the most a few days. They are not experts so take it with a pinch of salt. And this guy is ultra dull.
Quirky and fashionable car for a lease but wouldnt buy one
