Maserati’s Levante Trofeo has been put to the test at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed.
It was a UK dynamic debut for the performance SUV, which uses a Ferrari-sourced 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 engine to develop 572bhp. Over the course of the FoS weekend, the Levante completed a number of runs along the famous hill climb — with drivers such as celebrity chef James Martin and Matteo Panini, owner of the Panini Museum, one of the most famous Maserati collections in the world.
As well as a boost in power, the Levante Trofeo benefits from a number of upgrades to exploit the SUV’s performance potential. Maserati’s Integrated Vehicle Control System features a new ‘Corsa’ mode with launch control to sharpen the machine, while a racier visual comes courtesy of a new aluminium bonnet with dual vents, a set of 21-inch aluminium wheels, a carbon-fibre front splitter, front grille blades, side skirts and rear valance. Trofeo badging completes the look.
A special Trofeo Launch Edition is available, limited to just 50 examples across Europe. A choice of three unique exterior colours are available — namely Blue Emozione matte, Giallo Modenese and Rosso Magma. Inside the car, leather sports seats can be had in black with the choice of red, blue or yellow contrast stitching.
