DIVA Drives

Maserati have been in the premium car manufacturing business for over a century now and show no signs of slowing down. Having entered into the luxury SUV segment only a few years ago with the Levante, this prestigious brand has ensured that every new generation model is more impressive than its predecessor. We at OHLALA were delighted when offered the rare opportunity to test drive the new Maserati Levante, compliments of the proficient team at Maserati Doha, a test drive we are sure to remember for many years to come.

The moment we laid eyes on the new Levante Gransport; we were in love. This new generation model is a beauty to behold, and we took our time slowly inspecting the vehicle, taking in every magnificent detail. At the front end, the imposing grille, inspired by the Alfieri concept, is accentuated by the flow of the front wings which in turn emphasise the shape of the engine compartment lid. The powerful Full LED headlights converge with the Trident symbol sitting at the centre of the grille like a precious jewel. From the flanks, the Levante’s feline-inspired headlights point the eyes towards the characteristic Maserati rear pillar, seamlessly following the shape of the side windows. The muscular rear shoulders give this model its distinctive Italian style, whilst the profile of the SUV is defined by a swaged line running the full length of the vehicle. This line veers away from the signature side vents at the front and fades over the rear wing, defining its muscular shape and emphasising its underlying power. The profile view is completed with sporty 21-inch, light alloy wheels, complete with Trident design neatly integrated into the spokes. At the rear, the car is finished off perfectly with its stylish roof spoiler and dual twin exhaust system.
