On a sunny day in California, Car Design News got an exclusive update from FCA’s global president of product design, Ralph Gilles, on Maserati interior materials, UI and UX design, the positive side of shared components, and what the future might hold for this historic Italian sports car brand
On a candlelit evening in Carmel Valley, FCA’s Global President of Product Design showed us Maserati’s new special editions and gave us an exclusive update on his team’s current efforts.
During Monterey Car Week, Maserati showed limited editions of the Quattroporte S Q4 GranLusso and the Levante S GranSport, which will be limited to 50 examples each and exclusively for the US market. All 100 vehicles are furnished with a ‘Pelletessuta’ interior; a thin, finely woven Nappa leather made by Ermeneglido Zegna.
