Maserati’s pricing puts the petrol-engine Ghibli around £8,000 above the 302bhp BMW 535i M Sport Saloon and £4,500 above the 335bhp 3.0-litre supercharged Jaguar XF.
The 271bhp Ghibli Diesel costs around £4,000 more than Audi’s 309bhp A6 3.0 TDI quattro SE and £8,000 above Mercedes’ 248bhp E 350 BlueTEC AMG Sport or BMW’s 254bhp 530d SE.
Closest competitor to the 404bhp Ghibli S is BMW’s 443bhp 550i M Sport Saloon, which is priced around £6,000 less.
The Ghibli is Maserati’s first saloon in the premium E segment and the first Maserati in history to feature a diesel engine. The all-new engine was designed by former Scuderia Ferrari F1 Head of Engines Paolo Martinelli.
The Ghibli was joined at Goodwood by the GranCabrio MC and the four-seater GranTurismo MC Stradale, which was driven up the hill by celebrity chef James Martin.
