    Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    Such a shame they went for a V6.

    Re: Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    I thinks it's not a bad thing that they have chosen for the V6 for this car. It isn't their top model and the car itself looks a lot like a sucessor to the beautiful 6 cilinder cars from the 1950's and 1960's when Maserati was a pretty succesful brand. (3500GT, Sebring, although those had a straight six)

    Engine is not an issue, issue is how much of proto they will save

    A V6 with 530 hp is nothing to scoff at.

    Maybe later they will offer it with a V8


    Re: Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    They also said the Granturismo replacement will have a V8 560+HP( basically Californa T engine)


    Re: Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    I´ve been having V8 engines cars for many years now, and it´s not only about the power, it´s about the sound which is 50% of fun on a car Smiley, in some cars, even more. This is the kind of model a V8 makes even more sence

    The alfieri will be the most beautiful gt on sale if it will be like the one seen at geneva, and it will get power for sure.

     

    i love that car

    Up to now Maseratis don't drive as well as they look. Extra weight and not meticulous development in some areas.

    I don't think this one will be any different, but if the good looks of the Concept are carried to the production version, it will sell.

    It's true, but the look and the sound are so different so that you can live with a  slower car compared to others.

    That Maserati V6 is actually a pretty nice engine. Keep in mind that this car is positioned below the (upcoming) Gran Turismo, which will have a V8 (Turbo probably)

    This is what I mean when I express my feeling towards the use of a V6, it will NEVER sound like this Alfieri V8, simply amazing Smiley

    Re: Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    what a car .....I think this is one of the most beautiful car in years, and what a sound!!!

    so if it is slower that the 911 who cares....this is just  amazing and I can look at it the whole day long...

    Re: Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    First of all - great to hear that the car will be produced.

    Second - yes I share your doubts:

    • V8 Sound is uncomparable!
    • The real car will probably be far different from the study

    And yes - I share the comment of xander71

    • I can look at it the whole day long

    Amazing beauty - almost a huge pity to ride it! But it is like with the girls - if you not doing it, someone else will do it smiley


    Re: Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    The Alfieri is too beautiful to be the lower V6 model. But Maserati may be preparing to come up with something even better looking for the V8 replacement!

    When I saw this concept I stood looking for 15 minutes at it and I couldn't find a bad angle. Will the production version be so perfect? We have to wait and see.

    Re: Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    Doesn´t make any sence to present this proto with an amazing V8 engine, and then drop a "lousy" V6 on it for the production model!! I don´t care if the V6 makes + 800Hp, I prefer the rumble of a V8, did you ear the thing roaring on that video Smiley

    Re: Maserati Alfieri will go into production

    Agree - the V rumble is more important than the HP. Even with 400 HP it would be fast enough IMO.
