Italian drama in metal

The Maserati Ghibli still commands attention with a long bonnet, sculpted flanks and the Trident badge on the grille. Its proportions are classic Italian — low and purposeful — spread across a footprint of 4,971 mm long and 1,945 mm wide, which reads as presence rather than ostentation. The range now includes a petrol MHEV rear‑wheel‑drive tuned to 330 hp and an all‑wheel‑drive Modena with 430 hp, so visual drama matches different performance levels. Top speeds reach into the mid‑two hundreds, so the Ghibli is more than a pretty face on the motorway.

Cabin: tailored, not tactile luxury

The cabin mixes soft leathers, metal trim and a driver-focused layout that feels bespoke compared with many German rivals. Seats are supportive and count five in total, with a practical 500‑litre boot and an 80‑litre fuel tank that underline the car's long-distance intent. The central infotainment is responsive enough and offers smartphone mirroring, while physical controls for climate and driving modes keep operation straightforward. Attention to detail is high, although some materials on lower panels remind that this is a performance sedan first and a full luxury flagship second.

Everyday life: can it live with family runs?

Rear passengers get reasonable legroom for the segment but headroom can be tighter with the low roofline, so the Ghibli suits adults on medium-length trips rather than long coach-like comfort. With a curb weight around 1,953–2,010 kg and payloads close to 520–577 kg, it feels planted but heavier than compact executive rivals, which affects economy and agility. The 500 L boot swallows weekly shopping and some luggage easily, though bulky items can be awkward to load because of the sedan mouth.

On the road: when it’s asked to perform

On the move the Ghibli balances grand‑touring calm with genuine sporting bite — the 330 hp MHEV knocks out 0–100 km/h in about 5.7 s, while the 430 hp Modena does the same in roughly 4.7 s. Torque figures of 450 and 580 Nm deliver strong mid-range shove, and the choice of rear‑wheel or all‑wheel drive changes the car's character from playful to unflappable in poor weather. Steering is direct and the chassis resists body roll better than expected, though the mass is still felt when changing direction quickly. Suspension tuning favours comfort over razor-sharp feedback, so the Ghibli is happiest on flowing roads and long runs rather than track days.

Consumption: real-world numbers that matter

Fuel consumption is part of the deal: the MHEV averages about 8.6 L/100 km on the combined cycle while the hotter Modena sits near 11.1 L/100 km, figures that are realistic for sporty petrol sedans. With an 80‑litre tank that translates to an ideal theoretical range of roughly 930 km for the MHEV and about 720 km for the Modena, real-world numbers will be lower with spirited driving. Emissions sit in the mid‑to‑high range with CO2 around 194–251 g/km, so running costs and environmental impact should be weighed against performance priorities. The mild‑hybrid system trims urban consumption modestly, but the Ghibli remains a petrol performance car more than an economy champion.

Tech & safety: modern enough, but not geeky

Maserati outfits the Ghibli with a modern suite of driver aids including adaptive cruise, lane keep assist and parking sensors that help in daily traffic without intrusive intervention. The infotainment supports smartphone integration and offers clear graphics, though the ergonomics mix touchscreen and physical controls to keep common functions simple. Safety and emissions are classified in the same box as many petrol performance cars, so expect solid active safety but not the highest level of hybrid-electric assistance or semi-autonomous driving.

Who should pick a Ghibli?

The Ghibli suits buyers who prioritise personality, sound and a sporting image over the last word in rear-seat luxury or ultra‑frugal running costs. Corporate buyers who want to stand out on the road and drivers who value engine note and dynamic poise will find the Maserati rewarding, especially in the punchy Modena form. For those wanting quiet efficiency or maximum practicality there are more sensible alternatives, but for an emotive, Italian executive saloon the Ghibli remains a compelling choice.
