Maserati Quattroporte GT, Modena & More Trims

Last updated August 4, 2026

Maserati Quattroporte

The Quattroporte lineup starts with the GT and older base models, which emphasize traditional grand-touring comfort. Modena and S models are the sportier middle branch; GranLusso versions lean toward richer luxury, while GranSport versions add a more athletic look and cabin. Q4 models bring all-wheel-drive traction to that stronger V6 formula. GTS and Sport GT S models form the rear-wheel-drive V8 branch, with luxury-led and sport-led variations. Trofeo sits at the top as the dedicated high-performance model, with track-focused driving hardware and carbon-fiber details.

Frequently asked questions

What does Q4 mean on a Quattroporte?

Q4 means all-wheel drive. A Q4 trim sends power to all four wheels when extra grip is needed, making it the Quattroporte variant aimed at wet or snowy conditions.

What is the difference between the GT and Modena trims?

In the 2022–2023 trim structure, GT is the comfort-oriented entry model with a 345-hp V6 and rear-wheel drive. Modena raises output to 424 hp and adds a more assertive sport character while keeping the core luxury and technology features.

What is the difference between Modena and Modena Q4?

The defining difference is the drivetrain. In recent lineups, Modena uses rear-wheel drive, while Modena Q4 adds all-wheel drive. Both use the 424-hp twin-turbo V6 and retain the adaptive suspension and main cabin technology.

What is the Modena Ultima Q4 trim?

It is the single high-content Quattroporte sold in the final U.S. model year. It combines a 424-hp V6 and all-wheel drive with heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, four-zone climate control, soft-close doors, and a 10.1-inch touchscreen.

What is the difference between S and S Q4?

On sixth-generation cars, S is the rear-wheel-drive V6 model and S Q4 adds all-wheel drive. In their later form, both use a 424-hp twin-turbo V6, so the main decision is traditional rear-drive feel versus added all-weather traction.

What is the difference between GranLusso and GranSport?

GranLusso is the comfort-led treatment, with richer materials, wood trim, and a more formal look. GranSport gives the same basic Quattroporte sharper bodywork, dark exterior trim, sport seats, and paddle shifters. These names were used before the GT, Modena, and Trofeo structure.

Does GranSport mean the Quattroporte has more power?

Not by itself. Within a matching S, S Q4, or GTS family, GranSport mainly changes the body styling and cabin toward a sportier theme. Engine output comes from the S, S Q4, or GTS part of the name.

What is the difference between the GTS and Trofeo?

Both are rear-wheel-drive V8 versions, but Trofeo is newer and more track-focused. Sixth-generation GTS models use a 523-hp V8, while Trofeo uses a 572-hp V8 and adds Corsa mode, launch control, stronger brakes, and carbon-fiber exterior pieces.

How do GTS GranLusso and GTS GranSport differ?

They share the 523-hp V8 and rear-wheel drive. GTS GranLusso emphasizes richer upholstery, ventilated front seats, and a formal cabin. GTS GranSport uses sharper bumpers, black trim, sport seats, and a steering wheel with paddle shifters.

What did the S add over the base Quattroporte?

In late fifth-generation lineups, S moved from the base car’s 4.2-liter V8 to a 4.7-liter V8. Both were rear-wheel-drive luxury sedans, but S placed more emphasis on performance while remaining less aggressive than Sport GT S.

What is the difference between S and Sport GT S?

In the late fifth-generation range, Sport GT S is the sharper version. It uses a 444-hp 4.7-liter V8, sport-tuned fixed suspension, paddle shifters, and more aggressive exterior details. S keeps a more comfort-oriented setup.

Which Quattroporte trim makes the most sense for snow?

A Q4 trim is the straightforward fit because Q4 means all-wheel drive. Depending on the era, that includes S Q4, S Q4 GranLusso, S Q4 GranSport, Modena Q4, or Modena Ultima Q4.

Which Quattroporte trim is focused most on comfort?

A GranLusso version is the comfort-led pick in lineups that used that name, adding richer upholstery, wood trim, ventilated front seats, and soft-close doors. The later Modena Ultima Q4 also has a broad comfort package, including heated rear seats and four-zone climate control.

Which Quattroporte trim should I look for if I want a V8?

Look for Sport GT S in the older fifth generation, GTS in the sixth generation, or Trofeo in 2021–2023 cars. GTS balances V8 performance with luxury, while Trofeo adds higher output, stronger brakes, and more track-focused controls.
