2020 Maserati Levante SUV Model Review, Features, Pricing, & Specs

The Quintessential Italian SUV

Staying true to the Maserati reputation of inspired performance combined with superlative grand-touring capabilities, the Levante is the first SUV to wear the Maserati trident.

Equipped with all-wheel drive and driver-selectable ride height, the Levante is a capable off-road machine, but of course, where it truly shines is on-road.

Both the Levante and the Levante S are powered by a 3.0L twin-turbo 6-cylinder powerplant that generates 345 horsepower in the Levante and a whopping 424 horsepower in the Levante S which accelerates it from 0-60 in just 5.0 seconds flat. This luxury SUV also comes with a set of driving modes, including Normal Mode, Off-Road Mode, Sport Mode – all available in manual or automatic – and I.C.E. (Increased Control & Efficiency) Mode.

Quintessential Maserati Styling & Craftsmanship

Of course, what sets any Maserati apart from the crowd isn’t it’s 0-60 time. It’s the craftsmanship and Italian styling that you can only find in a Maserati. Premium leather and handcrafted French stitching appoint the interior, with several interior options, while fine hardwoods and Alcantara accents complete the package. Cutting-edge technology like an 8.4-inch touchscreen infotainment panel provides effortless control over the climate control settings, or programming a route into the available navigation system, or accessing your smartphone via Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™.

Finally, it wouldn’t be a Maserati without a signature deep-throated Italian exhaust note, and the Levante does not disappoint. Even light pressure on the accelerator can activate a snarling sound that is simply music to any car enthusiast’s ears, while simultaneously grabbing the attention of every other driver within earshot. It’s a sound that may only be surpassed by the available Bowers and Wilkins 16-channel, 17-speaker, 1,280-watt Premium Surround System which delivers unsurpassed sound quality on the interior.

What the Critics Say

“The Levante brings classic Maserati character to the world of midsize luxury SUVs with distinctive design and thoroughbred twin-turbo engine power derived from its Ferrari roots. Its broad range of custom options, from the color of its brake calipers to a variety of interior leathers and materials, also give the Levante a more personal touch.”
– Edmunds

“In all, this big Maserati manages to keep the brand’s DNA largely intact, meaning it offers exclusivity, brand cachet, and a unique, soulful sound. Yes, it is fast, loud, and ostentatious. But if any SUV ever came close to being sensuous, this is it.”
