The Maserati Levante measures 5,003 mm in length, 2,158 mm in width (with door mirrors) and 1,679 mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 3,004 mm. Based on the same rear-wheel drive platform as the Maserati Quattroporte and the Maserati Ghibli, the Maserati Levante is available with three engines.

The base engine is a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol unit good for 257 kW (344.50 hp) and 500 Nm of torque. Moving up the range, there's the Levante S powered by a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol engine that churns out 316 kW (423.59 hp) and 580 Nm of torque. For those preferring diesel power, there's an option of a 3.0-litre turbocharged V6 engine that develops 202 kW (270.78 hp) and 600 Nm of torque. An 8-speed automatic transmission is standard, and so is the Q4 all-wheel drive system.
