Pure Luxury

2017 Maserati Levante S 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)
5 of 5 people found this review helpful

I have a Ghibli and Levante they both are amazing cars. Levante is the best SUV I ever had. Love the sport future when you go fast on the road is lowers the car suspension and make you feel like you are driving a sport car rather SUV. At some corners Levante takes a better turns than my Ghibli. It is much better car than any other luxury SUV's. The technology is unthinkable. There are so many little details that I learn something new on daily basis and get amazed how they thought of every little detail. Words can not describe, it's better to drive once then hear me talk about it.

I’ve owned every high end SUV’s. This is as good as many but better than most! It’s a 2018 purchased new and now has 26,000. Just put new tires on it. I plan on keeping it awhile , I usually trade ever two years or less but plan on keeping this one!

Ultra-Luxury Driving Experience, Exceptional Deal

2017 Maserati Levante 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)

The depreciation is fierce on Maserati's but the driving experience is exceptional. I made it a goal to buy a Luxury car - a step above BMW/Mercedes/Lexus - something I could feel proud of driving around in. My choice was between a 2017 Porsche Macan S and 2017 Maserati Levante. I went with the Levante for a number of reasons and have enjoyed every minute owning the ride. LOVE: *Interior space, comfortable seating - Passengers love riding in this car, it's spacious with cooling/heating seats. *Ferrari-built Turbo V6 Engine - Acceleration is satisfying, the Italian sports car / Ferrari engine noise when your accelerating. *Dynamic suspension - A unique feeling to feel your car move up-and-down for an optimal driving experience. *Cooling seats is a neat feature. *Front of the car is honestly sexy af. I love the look of the grill vs a Range Rover or Porsche Macan/Cayenne. Back is mediocre - I'd prefer at Range Rover in styling if you're looking at the back or side of the car. Side of the car with the signature "Maserati vents" are nice. *Driver's experience - Truly feels like driving a sports car but it's an SUV. CONS: *Infotainment is a little bare, ApplePlay makes a big difference. *Maintenance is expensive, especially if you go to a dealership. Need to buy mostly OEM parts if you want to fix anything as 3rd-party parts don't really exist. *Trunk isn't huge but it's serviceable if you need to carry around large items. *Not worth the original $75-$100k+ price tag. Value depreciates around 50% by year 3 or 4 of the car, I purchased at nearly 50% value at 3 years and 45k miles - very satisfied with my deal. If you're shopping for ultra-luxury car brands - Porsche, Ferrari, Maserati, Range Rover, etc -- look at something 2-3 years old with low mileage. The depreciation has leveled off and that's when you can find some real diamonds. Purchased my Levante during the 2020 COVID-era, deals were abundant and I felt like I found the best deal on the planet buying this car. Listed for around $38k on Edmunds via an online-only dealership called Shift.com, the Levante came with 45k miles / no accidents / Base model.

Engine failed completely in 80,000 miles

2018 Maserati Levante S GranSport 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 8A)

I like the car in the beginning but problem started around 60,000 miles and the engine completely failed I needed to be replaced at approximately 80,000 miles. The cost for replacement was $38,000. The sensible option is the trash the vehicle now for roughly $10,000 in scrap. I paid over $100,000 for the vehicle new. Worst purchase ever made.

sold after 5 months

My wife drove a BMW X5 for 6 years, and this last August we traded it in to lease a Maserati Levante. Last week, we took at $20,000 loss (got $13,000 for the trade in and had to pay more than $7000 to get out of the lease) to get out of the lease, and bought a new BMW X5. So many problems with the Levante. Most of all, the controls are terrible. You can't see/read the stick behind the steering wheel that controls the wipers without leaning over the steering wheel. The button on the steering wheel doesn't switch between your preset radio stations, but only scans all stations! To go to your presets, you have to use the touch screen: hit radio, and then reach out to touch the station (or use the wheel between the front seats). Either way, you have to take your hands off the steering wheel. The engine turns off when you stop at a light, but the dealership told us we can turn off that function. True, but every time you start the car you need to click through 4 menus on the dash to get to the spot to turn it off, and then click back to display the speed digitally! Huge nuisance. I am 5'9" and drove with the drivers' seat as far back as it can go. What would someone do who is 6' or taller?? We found the seats to be relatively narrow and tight, and my wife is only 5' and 105 lbs, while I'm 5'9" and 170 lbs (i.e., we aren't big people). We got leather seats, but if you reach between the console and seats (e.g., when you drop your phone in between), you feel/see that they put cotton in that area rather than finishing off the seats with leather. There are heated seats but no hard button to turn them on and off-- again, back to the touch screen (go to main menu, hit "controls" and then hit the seat heater buttons). The seat heaters turn off after 5 or 10 minutes, so you need to repeat those steps to turn them back on (assuming you put your screen back to radio, Apple Play or navigation in the meantime). Turning radius is not good-- we had a hard time turning into parking spaces without backing up. This became even more apparent when we got the new X5 this week-- we really see the difference in the steering between the X5 and Levante. Also since our first snows here in Chicago in December, the X5 handles far better than the Levante, which we always felt sliding. We spent around $80k on the Levante and hated it so much that we took a $20k hit to get out of our lease and avoid driving this car for 3 more years (took a 39 mo lease). The X5 has none of the deficiencies mentioned above. Everyone thought the Levante was cool, and valets always parked it in front of the restaurant, but it was a terrible experience for us. I was considering a Maserati Gran Turismo to replace my BMW 650ix convertible next year, but not after this experience.
