2015 Maserati Quattroporte S Q4

The 2015 Quattroporte S Q4 is the all-wheel-drive version of the flagship sedan from Maserati, identifiable by the “Q4” badging that signals the AWD system.
Under the hood sits a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine delivering approximately 404 horsepower and 406 lb-ft of torque.
That power is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission and the Q4 all-wheel-drive system, giving the car strong performance credentials.
In performance terms the car can sprint from 0-60 mph in under five seconds (around 4.8 s) in favorable conditions.
The exterior design is bold and elegant, with the long proportions, Maserati’s signature trident grille, and Italian craftsmanship visible in the details.
Inside, the cabin is rich with premium materials — leather, wood or optional carbon fiber trim — and seating for five in a luxury context.
Rear-seat passengers enjoy generous legroom and an ambiance that reflects Maserati’s luxury ethos, though the tech interface lags some rivals.
The Quattroporte S Q4 offers approximately 18.7 cubic feet of cargo space, which is solid for a full-size luxury sedan.
Fuel economy is modest: around 15 mpg city / 24 mpg highway for the S Q4.
The AWD system is designed to give the car more confidence in varied driving conditions, yet the handling retains a sporty feel for the class.
On the ride comfort side, adaptive suspension and refined chassis tuning ensure that the car feels planted, though larger wheel options may sacrifice softness on rough roads.
The Quattroporte S Q4 competes in the large luxury sedan segment against cars like the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series — but it brings a more exotic and distinctive character.
One of the trade-offs is that while the Maserati offers strong style and performance, its infotainment and advanced safety-feature offering are less advanced than some competitors’ at the time.
The original MSRP for the S Q4 trim was in the neighborhood of around $106,900–$115,600 depending on options and market.
Overall, the 2015 Quattroporte S Q4 represents a luxury sedan that offers Italian flair, all-wheel performance, and a refined cabin—but it demands a premium and may require acceptance of a somewhat less cutting-edge tech suite compared to the top flagships.
