The e-mail I've got says it's getting air suspension which should give a good ride and the ability to drop the height at speed. Here is the HR Owen brief:

Only mentions the diesel engine. Petrol not coming to the UK?

Surely they must be doing petrol, even the new Jaguar F-Pace comes with a 3.0 380PS petrol engine. I fancied Geneva, funnily enough from Newcastle as that's where I live I can't go through the week as I have a child at school and he would never speak to me again if I went without him, weekend I'd imagine will be too busy and the flights are also weird times.

All the coverage in the mags says yes but the UK dealer text only mentions diesel.

Did anyone watch it...? I managed a 5 minute peek as they drove it out. I like the look of it I must say...

Some tech info here:

http://www.maserati.co.uk/maserati/uk/en/index/models/levante/levante-diesel.html#

Interestingly the diesel kerb weight is listed as 2205kg which is 370kg more than the Ghilbi.

It's on the link I posted, tad longer than the Ghibli.

Maserati, where's the PETROL?

Pricing has been out for a while for other markets - France and Switzerland have been available for ages. Will be interesting to see how the UK RHD prices compare.

6k premium for a petrol engine ? Most manufacturers are or were charging a premium for diesel engines. Its a couple of years since i looked at buying new. Has the whole petrol / diesel price premium flipped round again in the last 12 months or so ?
