2022 Quattroporte Trofeo Performance

The Quattroporte Trofeo's top speed of 203 mph sets it apart from its German competitors, which are typically limited to 155 mph. Of course, this figure is merely academic as you won't legally be able to reach it on any public road in the USA. Of more significance is acceleration, and here the Trofeo is rapid but not as quick as its competitors. The 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8 unleashes its 580 hp to the rear wheels exclusively, so the Trofeo isn't the easiest car to launch but it'll still get from 0 to 60 mph in 4.2 seconds. By comparison, the much cheaper BMW 750i xDrive with its more secure AWD system needs just 3.9 seconds for the same sprint. The new Mercedes-Benz S580 4Matic is also much cheaper and nearly matches the Trofeo with its 4.4-second effort. Upcoming AMG versions of the Merc and the BMW M760i will easily leave the Maserati behind. Make no mistake, the rear-wheel-drive Trofeo is a really fast car and once you've gotten off the mark, overtaking power is vicious. But it certainly isn't the quickest vehicle in this segment.

Engine and Transmission

The Trofeo is powered by a Ferrari-derived 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8 engine that generates 580 hp and 538 lb-ft of torque. It's mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission from ZF. While a power plant from Maranello may lead you to believe that the Trofeo offers an intoxicating driving experience, the reality is rather different. For starters, there isn't much to get excited about sonically; the soundtrack is notably subdued from inside the hushed cabin. This gives it a much less immersive character than the Ferrari version of this V8, which uses a flat-plane crank in contrast to the Trofeo's cross-plane crank. Outside, the exhaust note is much meatier. Acceleration is undoubtedly strong and mid-range power is excellent, but the Maserati doesn't shove you into the seatback the same way the most powerful turbocharged V8s from Mercedes and BMW do. The transmission doesn't disappoint, though. The ZF is as effective here as it is in many other cars, allowing you to take control via the delightful aluminum column-mounted paddle shifters or left it to its own devices, when it smoothly yet decisively selects the right gear at the right time.

2022 Quattroporte Trofeo Gas Mileage

The Quattroporte Trofeo is far from an efficient vehicle. EPA estimates will see it return only 13/20/16 mpg city/highway/combined. Even the BMW M5, with a much larger 4.4-liter V8, manages a better 15/21/17 mpg and the 750i xDrive does even better with 17/24/19 mpg. With its 21.1-gallon gas tank, the Trofeo's range in mixed driving conditions is limited to around 338 miles.
