Terrific review Ben! Finally a full fat Ferrari V8 SUV that drives like a Porsche…but sounds 💯 % better! Made in Italy 🇮🇹

As a Italian lover: I'd buy this one day Ben.

If I had the money will buy one as fast as it can move 😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

This is beautiful in every way. My dream car. Maybe.. one day. Thank you for the review !!

crazy car, defiantly I think one of the best subs

Kind of hilarious that this car is covered in carbon fiber accents inside and out, but they charge extra for the paddle shifters.

Bravo! Bravissimo!

Analog gauges rarely see that in new cars nowadays

'As if anyone would take it offroad' well I would, not once, many times.

Mannnnn wish I had your job.

@Ben Hardy You could be the first to do a review of the refreshed 2023 Lexus LS 500, I couldn't find any review of the 2023 refresh.

If money is no object, I would go for this over the Audi RSQ8. However, as a DIY-er, I'll go w/the RSQ8 w/o carbon ceramics because there are more aftermarket parts support for that than this.

The latest Maserati cars with Ferrari engines

One of the things I notice about dealerships is there’s no respect for the future buyer , for a car which costs over $100k and made of real leather you would think you guys would (in the least) be wearing gloves (to not expose the leather to oils or fragrances) and foot booties (to keep the car as close to new as possible) … in the old days guys would basically wear Tyvek suits to prevent any type of exposure (sweat, hair gel , dust etc.) and that would be for a simple Mercedes or BMW , nowadays you guys make this videos and drive the car around like it’s your own … and don’t forget about the impressions on the seat for another persons body weight and contour … if I’m spending over $100k for a NEW CAR it better not smell or look like a USED CAR … these new gen dealers have no respect

Look at this video , finger prints on everything , and WTF is all of that crumbled stuff on the driver side floor ??? wouldn’t be surprised if it smells like dog breath and cheap cologne … don’t be surprised if that car ends up sitting on the lot til 2024 … it’s not just you guys I’ve noticed it’s a trend in most dealerships , there needs to be a standard / protocol for NEW HIGH END VEHICLES , least you can do is wear gloves and foot booties when showing and driving a $160k vehicle

Agree, Agree. The way they mostly launch these cars like grade schoolers makes me cringe. I have decided, in principal, that if I ever buy an Audi SQ8, BMW M850i, etc. which I am in the market for when the 2024's come out, my first question will be to have the sales person go get the key and start the car. If the ODO is ore than 10 miles, it's bye-bye. (maybe even 6 depending on my mood that day) My other nightmare is this. Can you imagine a 110K car comes of the truck, WITH NO PROTECTION, except maybe a hood diaper, then gets washed by a guy with a rag and a bucket of water, after which the tires get "painted" all shiny. That would make me faint. My suggestion to dealers at this level, transport your cars from factory in closed trailers or completely covered like they do luxury yachts. Secondly do not test drive for sale cars on the floor for a phooken You-tube video. Makes it clank/crunch and spin through a gear and then giggles like a girl. Then a sucker walks in and writes check for 160K, all after which they probably washed it like I described above. Use a damn factory/press car or use stock footage from testers doing just that. If I see a dealer name on a You-tube "test" video, you won't be seeing me, ever.

An actual cigarette lighter! haven't seen one of those on a new car for a while...

2023 or 2013? Interior WTF!

You have got to be kidding? The Urus is faster and handles better in all objective measures. The Urus is not simply a re-badge either. It’s a platform mate, not simply a badge swap. The new Performate version will easily blow this thing in the weeds. Living with a Maserati vs driving one around the block are two different things.

As much as I love the Urus it is in fact a badge swap MLB platform from the Volkswagen group. Our love for cars is one thing but every manufacturer swap parts to keep cost down. Makes no sense to use this as an argument to why you love another car over the one reviewed. And yes I would take a Urus over a Levante. But the Levante is a very very good car id say its just overlooked by social bias. Maserati is still a luxury brand and will always be looked as the gentleman’s Ferrari

@@AntonTvHD I have to ask if you know what you're saying here? Do you know what a badge swap is? That means you literally change the badge from to another like GM used to do back in the day. The Urus is not merely a badge swap. Again, actually think about what you're saying and try to process what "badge swap" means. They don't even the same interior or sheet metal. Social bias? Total bullshit. Maseratis are overlooked by wealthy buyers because of their terrible reputation for reliability, rude dealers and crap service/support. No one is arguing how Maserati is being looked at, totally irrelevant to what I just stated.
