About the Maserati Ghibli M157
The M157 Ghibli marked Maserati's return to the executive saloon segment, aiming to rival the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes-Benz E-Class with a distinct Italian character. As the first Maserati to feature a diesel engine, it utilised a 3.0-litre V6 unit developed by VM Motori, providing significant torque and improved fuel economy for long-distance cruising. While it lacks the Ferrari-derived soundtrack of its petrol siblings, the diesel variant retains the Ghibli's sharp styling and rear-wheel-drive dynamics. By 2017, the model received interior updates including a new infotainment system, though it remained a niche alternative in a segment dominated by German efficiency.
