Italian luxury car giant Maserati has finally revealed the official images of the all new, sixth generation Quattroporte high-performance sports sedan ahead of its official debut at 2013 North American International Auto show, Detroit. The company which is aiming to take its sales numbers to 50,000 vehicles an year by 2015, the launch of new Quattroporte is part of the strategy to achieve the target.

However, the new generation Maserati Quattroporte retains some of its essential design elements as the outgoing one like the front grille, C pillar and side vents, it manages to look more sportier, aggressive and muscular. The company has revealed a bunch of photos of both the interior and exterior of the new sedan, but hasn't revealed any specification. The all new Quattroporte will be competing with the likes of BMW 7-Series, Jaguar XJ and Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

Explaining the design Lorenzo Ramaciotti, Head of Maserati Design Centre said: “The new Maserati Quattroporte is a high-performance sports luxury saloon that reinterprets the design features of classic Maseratis in a contemporary design language. Its style was born out of the guiding design principles of Maserati: harmony of shapes, dynamism of lines and Italian elegance. More generous in size when compared to the previous model, the new Quattroporte has a design that is at once graceful and sinuous, fashioned to bring out the sporty nature of the car."

He further says, “Some of the elements characterising the previous model have been purposely maintained: the front grille, the three side vents and the triangular C pillar. At the same time new style and functional features have been introduced: the strong belt line that runs through the entire side of the car giving the new Quattroporte a look and feel that is at once muscular and elegant, with frameless doors and three side windows.

“Inside, the design of the Quattroporte aims at essentiality, stressing the simplicity of lines and the full functionality of the on-board instrumentation. Functional elements are blended with soft quality surfaces made of prestigious woods and refined leathers.” He adds.

Speaking about the engine to be used in the new generation Maserati Quattroporte, Paolo Martinelli, Maserati Powertrain Director says, “The innovative Maserati engines of the all-new Maserati Quattroporte have been designed and developed by Maserati and Ferrari engineers in the heart of Italy’s motor valley. They are going to be produced in the Ferrari plant in Maranello that has been synonymous with cutting-edge technology and passion for well over 60 years. "
