Maserati Ghibli

First seen in 1967, the original Ghibli was a front-engined V8 grand tourer styled by Giorgetto Giugiaro at Ghia, and it rivalled the Ferrari Daytona and Lamborghini Miura for glamour. Its long bonnet, pop-up headlights and 4.7-litre V8 made it an icon of the era.

The name returned in 1992 on a compact twin-turbo coupe built on the Biturbo platform, offering strong performance from a small V6 in a tidy two-door body. That generation kept the Ghibli alive through the brand's leaner years.

Since 2013, the Ghibli has been a four-door executive saloon aimed squarely at the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes E-Class, offered with turbocharged V6 petrol, diesel and later hybrid power. Across all three eras the Ghibli has stood for accessible Maserati style and performance.
