Maserati’s Missing Sedans May Finally Be Coming Back

Sedans Aren’t Dead Yet

Though the company’s sales may not show it, Maserati currently has one of its best lineups in recent memory. The GranTurismo still looks great but finally feels modern, the Grecale is a stellar rival for the Porsche Macan, and the MCPura acts as the much-needed halo car that Maserati needed for years. All that’s missing is a sedan (or two).

During a journalist roundtable to discuss the company’s refreshed 2027 model lineup, Maserati confirmed it’s fully open to building sedans in the near future.

“The answer is absolutely yes,” an executive said when asked about bringing back sedans like the Ghibli and Quattroporte.

Already In Development

Not only did Maserati confirm that it wants to build sedans, it also said that these models are currently in development.

“Today, we are not present in the E segment, where we have our legacy, our story, meaning Quattroporte or Ghibli. So in this direction, we are developing a new model, because there is a specific request coming from customers,” the executive added.

No more details were provided, so it’s unclear if these models will be brought back using the same platforms that currently underpin the Grecale and GranTurismo. Maserati’s crossover and coupe share the Giorgio Platform, which originally debuted with the Alfa Romeo Giulia and later the Stelvio.

We’d expect them to share the Nettuno V6 engine, a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged unit that Maserati just boosted to 582 horsepower in the 2027 GranTurismo Trofeo. The outgoing Ghibli and Quattroporte weren’t perfect, but the former was Maserati’s bestselling model when it was first introduced, so bringing it back sounds like a smart idea.
