on top of its engine, the ghibli marks itself out<br />
for other sophisticated technical solutions such<br />
as its five-arm rear multilink, a brand new eight<br />
speed zF automatic transmission and five different<br />
set up levels and its brand new four wheel<br />
drive system on demand which can electronically<br />
transfer up to 100% of torque in just 150<br />
milliseconds to the front wheels. no less impressive<br />
is the attention to detail in the design of the<br />
interior with absolutely top level finishings worthy<br />
of Maserati’s very best sector competitors. in<br />
this respect, worthy of special mention are the<br />
very beautiful Maserati touch Control display,<br />
its adjustable pedals (a feature which i particu-<br />
larly appreciated on my test drive), its reverse<br />
gear cameras, its classic interior in poltrona Frau<br />
leather and its extraordinary bower and wilkins<br />
15 speaker audio system. production of the newborn<br />
has already begun at the avv. giovanni agnelli<br />
grugliasco (ex bertone) factory and 22-25<br />
thousand vehicles a year is the production esti-<br />
mate. this should make ghibli Maserati’s greatest<br />
commercial success thanks to the expected<br />
boost to sales by the asian market where ghibli<br />
will be imported from 2015 onwards. to contribute<br />
to such ambitious expectations, ghibli’s<br />
price is definitely an accessible one particularly<br />
if its excellent finishings and absolutely top level<br />
