It underpins the 2013 Maserati Quattroporte, as well as the 2013 Maserati Ghibli and 2016 Maserati Levante (in the latter two's shortened version, named "M157").[1][2] It uses four-wheel independent suspension, composed of double wishbones at the front and a multilink setup at the rear, and supports all wheel drive.[3]
