Maserati Ghibli (2014)

 

King Engines | Maserati Ghibli (2014) | Design Team b Ghibli was challenged, a sedan that produce their most dynamic driving characteristics underlined by visual aggressive personality, but still remains recognizable visual connections with the Quattroporte. Body contouring reflects a philosophy for the four-door sedan coupe, while strong cat to the grille and headlights are Ghibli. It also keeps the C-pillar treatment distinctive Maserati, which provides much of the coupe posture and brings the classic Flash logo Maserati, continuing a tradition dating back to 1963. The side profile is dominated by a ridge that runs from the traditional Maserati grille vents behind the front wheels and the rear lights of the same goal. Inside, the Quattroporte Ghibli uniquely designed control panel perfectly the sporty and youthful character, without the luxury of waiting Maserati. The Ghibli also offers a sporty design with the full breadth of a Maserati luxury sedan combined expected. The Maserati Ghibli Ghibli Ghibli Diesel S and all use of a gearbox eight-speed automatic and comfort services seamlessly with the velocity change fast acceleration. All models Ghibli offers exquisite handling thanks to perfectly balanced weight distribution, double-wishbone front suspension and a state-of-the-art five-arm rear axle. The Maserati Ghibli is the market segment with premium e-sports came a clear advantage in the boat cabin and details, luxury features such as touch screen controls Maserati, reversing camera, Poltrona Frau leather interior and system Sound has 15 Bowers & Wilkins speakers and Wi-Fi and WiFi compatibility with the latest mobile phone systems.


A new range of petrol engines entirely new, entirely developed and produced by Maserati, Ferrari, form the heart of the Ghibli. New patented Maserati V6 engine - the latest technology Twin Turbo, GDI (gasoline direct injection), in close collaboration between the development team and Ferrari Maserati engines, the development team developed engine built in Maranello for the exclusive use of Maserati. The Maserati Ghibli comes with two versions of its V6 petrol engine twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter and 3.0-liter V6 diesel available. The most powerful petrol engine rear-drive V6 are equipped Ghibli S. The Maserati Ghibli is the first diesel car, nearly 100-year history of Maserati use a diesel engine. Standard in another first for the brand Maserati Ghibli all models have an active speed. In the best tradition of Maserati, the sound and performance exhaust system Ghibli through pneumatic valves in the pipes from each bank controlled and maintained by the sound Maserati deposit only sound in the tradition of the brand. All versions of the Maserati Ghibli have the same ZF AT8 - HP70 eight-speed automatic transmission that has already proven itself in the new Quattroporte. The transmission offers all comfort parameters to rapid changes in the movement, and to minimize fuel consumption low NVH (noise, vibration and harshness). Auto Normal, Sport Auto, Manual, Normal, Sport and Manual modes ICE extreme weather conditions: As befits the Maserati tradition, which can be changed in five types of dedication.


The car sports provides for the transfer of characters to shift gears more quickly at higher speeds to change and improve transplantation major sporting driveline. The driver is responsible for the selection of the gears, even if the system and participate in a lower gear when the engine speed is too low, or switch to a higher gear when the engine speed is raised too high. The system does not intervene, even if the driver executes the engine rev. ICE mode (high efficiency control) developed relaxed driving conditions and very little grip for better fuel efficiency. Ethos Maserati Ghibli design emphasizes dynamic driving characteristics, while the visible bonds with higher Quattroporte and distribution of a visual aggressive personality. The side profile is dominated by a ridge that runs from the traditional Maserati grille vents behind the front wheels and the rear lights of the same goal. Thanks to the long wheelbase, overall length and width of the tracks, the Ghibli comes together as one of the sports cars and more elegant looking Segment E.


Maserati Ghibli Management and design of the underside of the vehicle fulfills the promise of its sporty look with a low friction coefficient of 0.31 for low fuel consumption and increase stability at high speeds, the segment of E -Class can only Ghibli. It may be closely related to the Quattroporte, but the Ghibli has its own character thanks to its combination of a double wishbone front suspension and a state-of-the-art, multi-link rear suspension with active Skyhook system option to part-time four-wheel drive, suspension damping system, powerful brakes stops. How the Quattroporte, its design is based on the framework of a steel safety cell rigid and extremely safe to use a number of different steel and aluminum alloys, offer precise weight and minimal thickness. The choice of aluminum for the mass of the body parts of the Maserati Ghibli was to deliver the maximum possible safety of the occupants for the lowest weight possible. Along with the freedom that allows designers Maserati, has the option of aluminum also had a positive impact on reducing weight, reducing fuel consumption and reduce emissions.


Double wishbone suspension scheme is a tradition that Maserati Ghibli raised and continues this legacy, but also incorporates a new technology for greater accuracy. With a chassis design and software system that is already a proven success in the Quattroporte that Ghibli has to offer high aluminum forks mounted on the front with ease and precision handling. Aluminum is the metal of the dominant front suspension system, with the leadership and support given support bar forged aluminum hubs along, while the springs are made of steel. Ghibli suspension package is a buffer system with a fixed rate for the movement of the steel springs and stabilizers based control. Ghibli all the possibility Skyhook adaptive damping system, where the four dampers are electronically controlled Skyhook is now independent of each other. This is a variation on the standard Quattroporte, although their performance and development has been heavily modified to meet more dynamic spirit of the Maserati Ghibli. The default mode for the optional Skyhook emphasizes comfort and then if the driver releases the button sportier suspension. It also provides the mode selected by the driver of the dream, the system offers the perfect mode damping at each wheel almost immediately. Maserati has continued his long collaboration with Brembo in the new Ghibli and all models are equipped with fixed caliper brakes. The brakes of Ghibli S models are 360 mm x 32 mm, internally ventilated and perforated brake discs and six-piston cast aluminum twin Brembo fixed calipers on the front axle. It takes about four-piston Brembo rear caliper alloy Quattroporte. His records are being introduced with dual-cast technology Maserati.


With a little less engine power, the Maserati Ghibli Ghibli and used small diesel 345 mm x 28 mm front discs with four-piston fixed calipers at the front and 320 mm x 22 mm discs with floating calipers at the rear axle. Brake least not affect braking performance, however. As the fastest S Ghibli Ghibli Ghibli and stop diesel both 100 km / h in 36 meters. But the power of high-performance brake also focuses on the development of acoustic comfort braking system s' Ghibli only a measure of overall braking effectiveness and collaboration with Brembo. As for the rest of the story Ghibli, brake development reconciles seemingly contradictory goals of pure performance and total comfort. The Maserati Ghibli uses an electronic parking brake on all four wheels. The shifter knob on the front ergonomic brake is activated when the car is stationary. The brakes also function as part of the automatic starting system Ghibli Hill. This continues with Ghibli, with the front and rear as standard with classic black Maserati name blank tweezers. Also available in red Maserati sports aggressive blue give a touch of elegance, color is light silver gray. The Ghibli uses a new steering box brand aluminum, specially developed for the new geometry of the front suspension, which provide them with the Quattroporte, with the aim of better driver information more consistently at high speed and maneuverability low speeds. This allows the suspension of Maserati engineers to the extreme sensitivity to the precision required to turn the steering when cornering at high speeds combined offer. Due to customer demand, Maserati has avoided steering electro-hydraulic trend. The Maserati Ghibli uses a hydraulic system speed, servo-driven service, nasty artificial avoided if the driver turns the steering wheel quickly. Shock rods in the front and rear of the car are made of aluminum, while the doors, the engine compartment, the trunk and fenders are aluminum. The new Ghibli is a system of seven airbags and anti-whiplash front head restraints, equipped to provide maximum occupant protection.
