Ghibli Trofeo
Engine: 3.8L twin-turbocharged V8
Torque: 730 Nm
0–100 km/h: ~4.3 s

The Maserati Ghibli Trofeo is the culmination of the Ghibli line — a rear-wheel-drive Italian muscle sedan powered by a Ferrari-derived 3.8L twin-turbo V8, capable of over 320 km/h and delivering its full 730 Nm of torque with startling immediacy. With Launch Control and Corsa mode, the Ghibli Trofeo accelerates to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds, accompanied by an unmistakable Italian V8 soundtrack.

Even in lesser trims (S Q4, Hybrid), the Ghibli emphasized driver engagement over digital detachment, with hydraulic steering (in early years), rear-biased chassis balance, and taut suspension tuning. In Trofeo trim, the sedan receives a limited-slip differential, performance tires, enlarged brakes, carbon accents, and adaptive Skyhook dampers.

The cabin blends leather, carbon fiber, and traditional analog elements with an Italian flair. Though infotainment and ergonomics lagged behind German rivals, the Ghibli compensates with personality, style, and mechanical character.

The ZF 8-speed automatic remains one of the best in the segment, and the rear-drive layout of the Trofeo makes it surprisingly lively, especially in Sport or Corsa mode, where throttle response sharpens and exhaust valves open fully.

The Maserati Ghibli Trofeo earns its place in the performance registry as the most powerful and evocative expression of Maserati's modern mid-size sedan, balancing elegant Italian design with high-speed drama — a fitting finale to a model that always valued emotion over specification sheets.

Body Styles

Executive Sports Sedan (Ghibli) – a four-door D-segment luxury sedan with coupe-like proportions, short overhangs, and aggressive front-end styling. The Ghibli stands out with its concave grille, triple fender vents, frameless windows, and flowing character lines, balancing classic Maserati elegance with contemporary performance cues. Despite its midsize classification, it has a wide stance and low-slung roofline for a dramatic visual impact.

Model Name Meaning (Manufacturer)

The name “Ghibli” refers to a hot desert wind blowing across North Africa. Maserati has used this name since the late 1960s to designate sporty grand tourers. Revived in 2013, the Ghibli continues this legacy as a more agile and accessible sibling to the larger Quattroporte — offering Italian style, speed, and sound in a smaller, sharper package.

Model Name Meaning (Languages)

“Ghibli” is derived from the Libyan Arabic word ‘gibli’, meaning southern wind. Globally, the name is exotic and evocative, reflecting Maserati’s tradition of naming cars after famous winds (Bora, Mistral, Levante), and communicating power, motion, and sensuality across cultures.

Body & Interior Colors and Rims

The Ghibli offered a luxurious palette of paint finishes, starting with understated hues like Bianco (white), Nero Ribelle (black metallic), and Grigio Maratea (graphite gray). More expressive tones included Blu Emozione, Rosso Folgore (deep metallic red), and Verde Royale (Trofeo-exclusive). Several tri-coat and pearlescent finishes were available under the Fuoriserie personalization program, including matte and satin-effect paints.

Inside, the Ghibli featured hand-stitched leather upholstery, high-gloss or open-pore wood, carbon fiber accents, and aluminum paddle shifters. Base trims included leatherette and dark ash wood, while GranLusso versions featured Zegna silk inserts, full-grain leather, and real wood veneers. The GranSport and Trofeo focused on black leather, contrast stitching, and Alcantara headliners.

The infotainment system evolved from a Chrysler-sourced 8.4" Uconnect unit (with Maserati skin) to Maserati Intelligent Assistant (MIA) in 2021, integrating a 10.1" frameless touchscreen with Android Automotive OS. Optional features included Bowers & Wilkins surround sound, ventilated front seats, and full-color head-up display.

Wheel designs spanned from elegant 18" Poseidone alloys to aggressive 21" Titano or Orione wheels in gloss black, diamond-cut, or forged finishes. Trofeo models added red brake calipers, quad exhaust tips, and darkened exterior trim, with the option of forged lightweight wheels wrapped in Pirelli P Zeros.

vs Competitors

The Maserati Ghibli competes with the BMW 5 Series, Mercedes-Benz E-Class, Audi A6, and Jaguar XF, but offers a very different character. Compared to the German trio, the Ghibli emphasizes design, emotion, and exclusivity over pure spec sheet dominance. Against the 5 Series and E-Class, the Ghibli delivers more dramatic styling and a unique engine note thanks to Ferrari-engineered V6 and V8 powertrains. The Jaguar XF rivals it in driving engagement but can’t match its Italian flair or bespoke options. The Ghibli is not the most technologically advanced or spacious, but stands apart by delivering a visceral, heritage-rich driving experience with unmistakable presence and sound.

Fun Fact

Every Ghibli V6 and V8 engine — from the base 3.0L to the 580 hp Trofeo — was built by Ferrari in Maranello, making the Ghibli one of the few sedans in the world to feature true Ferrari engine DNA, giving it a sound and character that no rival could replicate.
