2014 Maserati Ghibli Official Pictures

The first few teaser images of the 2014 Maserati Ghibli came out a few days ago. A couple hours later, Maserati released the official photos of its brand new car along with the highly-anticipated details.

The 2014 Maserati Ghibli will be able to be purchased in three options. The first two is with V6 3.0-liter turbo-charged engines. The third is a V6 3.0-liter turbo-diesel engine which is the first time Maserati has ever used this. This is rather interesting and we'll see soon find out how each engine works at the 2013 Auto Shanghai, where the Maserati Ghibli will be exclusively revealed. All three of these engines work together through Maserati's eight-speed automatic gearbox. It comes with rear-wheel drive or their new "Q4" all-wheel drive.
