Maserati Kubang launch at 2011 Frankfurt Motor Show

Uploaded by on Sep 14, 2011
A new Maserati vehicle in the sport luxury SUV segment will represent a natural direction for Maserati to enlarge its product range and strengthen its presence in the sport luxury market. The idea of a sport luxury SUV is not totally new to Maserati. The Kubang concept was first unveiled at the Detroit Auto Show in 2003. It seems only appropriate to give the model that Maserati is unveiling today the very name of the concept that opened the way: Maserati Kubang. The distinctive Maserati style that makes the Kubang immediately recognizable as a true Maserati has been created by the Maserati Style Center headed by Lorenzo Ramaciotti. New-generation high-tech Maserati proprietary engines will be designed in Modena by Paolo Martinelli - Head of the Maserati Powertrain Department -- and will be produced in Maranello by Ferrari. An AT 8 speed automatic transmission and specific performance settings such as suspensions, brakes, steering will be exclusively developed in Modena for the Maserati sport luxury SUV by the Maserati Product Development Department.
