Maserati Ghibli Performance Overview
Maserati’s Ghibli performance record spans 1967 to 2021 across 6 verified tests, tracing a shift from a front-engine grand touring coupe to a modern high-output sport sedan. The AM115 first generation opened the timeline with the 1967 Coupe, whose 306-hp naturally aspirated gasoline V8 reached 60 mph in 6.4 seconds. That remains the sole independently verified early test here, but it establishes the Ghibli’s original performance baseline before the nameplate went dormant for decades.
When the Ghibli returned with the M157 generation for 2013, its performance profile changed sharply. The twin-turbocharged F160 gasoline lineup, rated from 404 to 580 hp in this sample, cut the benchmark to 4.6 seconds in the 2014 S Q4 Sedan, then to 4.1 seconds in the 2018 S Q4 Sedan. By 2021, the Trofeo Sedan recorded the model’s quickest figures at 3.7 seconds to 60 mph and a 12.0-second quarter-mile at 119.3 mph.
Today, the Ghibli stands as a gasoline-only model in this dataset, represented entirely by the M157 era in recent testing. Its current-generation best remains the 2021 Trofeo Sedan’s 3.7-second run, while the overall average across all tests settles at 4.82 seconds to 60 mph.
