Tim Kuniskis, Maserati CEO says, "It\'s proof that when you play with the elements you end up in a storm." He further says, “In the case of Trofeo, the engineers and designers in Modena knew that the driveline parameters were more than able to cope with additional power and they also knew that Maserati had access to the finest engines on earth. So, they were up to the challenge of making the finest luxury SUV also one of the fastest."
The interior also takes carbon fibre bits in order to pace with the sporty look. In addition, the company also offers a standard set up of 1,280 watts, 17-speaker Bowers & Wilkins surround sound audio system.
