執行緒： 瑪莎拉蒂計畫保時捷 911 競爭對手

中置引擎的跑車是基於阿爾法羅密歐 4 C;預計到 2015 年發售瑪莎拉蒂看起來設置為，到 2015 年推出中置引擎的競爭對手為保時捷 911。它將提供 V6 和 V8 電源並將得到的基礎，即將 Alfa 4 C.主機殼
雖然 Maseratis 4C 還沒有得到證實，但公司老闆已經暗示，如果要達到未來的增長目標，這樣的模式是必不可少的。
我們目前僅佔豪華跑車市場的 21 % ， Maserati 老闆哈拉爾 - 韋斯特（ Harald Wester）。 但到 2015 年，我們將有 100 % 的代表性。 如果沒有保時捷 911 的競爭對手，那麼市場的覆蓋範圍是不可能的。
該公司將在 2015 年全球銷售 5 萬輛汽車的計劃中發揮關鍵作用，從去年交付的 6159 輛汽車中，將成為該公司的主要銷售目標。 Maserati 的目標是通過新的 Quattroporte ，一個新的寶馬 5 系列競爭對手 Ghibli，新的 Levante SUV 和仍將被確認的 911 競爭對手。
名稱的新中置引擎瑪莎拉蒂猜測表明它可能會被稱為簡單 GranSport。不管它叫，電源將進來或形式的雙渦輪增壓 V6 雙渦輪增壓 V8，與大約 450bhp 和 550bhp 提供。
目標 kerb 體重據說小於 1400kg，雖然 V6 型號註定要有後輪驅動，因此 V8 可以選擇四輪驅動的選項，就像 Quattroporte 在某些市場上一樣。
由於法拉利和瑪莎拉蒂的關係密切，雙離合器自動變速箱似乎也很可能 -- 雖然在任何情況下，汽車都不會被定價或設計成競爭對手 Maranellos 自己的中型 V8。 這意味著小於 10 萬的價格標籤和比法拉利稍微豪華一點的價格。

Mid-engined sports car to be based on the Alfa Romeo 4C; expected on sale in 2015 Maserati looks set to launch a mid-engined rival for the Porsche 911 by 2015. It will be offered with both V6 and V8 power and will get a chassis based on that of the forthcoming Alfa 4C.
Although Maseratis 4C has yet to be confirmed, company bosses have hinted that such a model is essential if it is to reach its future growth targets.
We are currently represented in just 21 per cent of the luxury sports car market, Maserati boss Harald Wester. But by 2015 we will have 100 per cent representation. That market coverage would not be possible without a Porsche 911 rival.
The new mid-engined Maserati will play a crucial role in the companys intended plans to sell 50,000 cars a year worldwide by 2015, up from the 6159 cars it delivered last year. Maserati aims to achieve this through the new Quattroporte, a new BMW 5-series rival called Ghibli, the new Levante SUV and the still-to-be confirmed 911 rival.
Speculation about the name of the new mid-engined Maserati suggests it might be known simply as the GranSport. Whatever it is called, power will come in the form of either a twin-turbo V6 or a twin-turbo V8, with approximately 450bhp and 550bhp on offer.
The target kerb weight is said to be less than 1400kg, and although the V6 model is destined to have rear-wheel drive, theres a possibility of the V8 being offered with the option of four-wheel drive, just as the Quattroporte is in certain markets.
Given the close relationship between Ferrari and Maserati, a dual-clutch auto gearbox also seems probable — although under no circumstances will the car be priced or engineered to rival Maranellos own mid-engined V8. That means a price tag of less than 100,000 and a slightly more luxurious character than that of a Ferrari.
