Maserati Levante GTS

Italy contributes 118 cars to the 600 car catalogue, and the Maserati Levante GTS sits within that group as a distinctive expression of Italian performance in SUV form. It is one of Maserati’s 13 catalogue entries, and its place in the wider collection is defined by a rare combination of traits: a V8, twin turbocharging, and all wheel drive. Only 74 of the 600 cars pair a V8 with AWD, while 86 combine a twin turbocharged V8, making this Levante part of a narrow engineering category within the garage.

Its numbers place it in an interesting position rather than at a single extreme. With 550 bhp, the Levante GTS ranks 277th for power among the 600 cars, placing it in the top 46 percent. Its 0 to 100 km/h time of 4.1 seconds is faster than 273 cars in the catalogue, while its 292 km/h top speed ranks 308th. These figures show a car that sits firmly among capable performers, with its identity shaped as much by its drivetrain layout as by outright ranking.

The foundation of that character is a 3.8 litre, 3,799 cc V8 with twin turbocharging, producing 730 Nm of torque. That engine sits in a 4/5 seater SUV body style, giving the Levante GTS a place where practicality and high performance meet. The AWD system adds another layer to the specification, matching the V8 format with the traction expected from its category.

At a used price of £55,000, it ranks 415th among the 600 cars by price, meaning 185 cars in the catalogue cost more. Its cost per bhp stands at £100, offering a clear measure of how its performance is positioned against the wider selection. The Levante GTS is not defined by being the most expensive or the most powerful choice, but by bringing a specific combination into a collection.

For a garage built from 600 possibilities, this Maserati introduces a particular balance: Italian origin, SUV practicality, V8 character, twin turbocharged performance, and AWD confidence. It adds a different type of presence beside lower, more traditional performance cars while remaining grounded in the measurable qualities that make it distinct.

The Maserati Levante GTS brings balance to a dream garage.
