You killed this walkthrough dude! Enthusiasm and talked about all the little details that others skip over. All on point, well done!
Just saw one of these on the road today and it was beautiful! Keep bringing the 🔥 brother Joe!
It must have been serendipity! I will keep bringing it to you!
@@adnanrahman2022 that’s a great color for this SUV!
Saw a purple trofeo
👍
Putting in the hard work as always, thanks for the video!
You guys deserve the best Mark!
Love the sound of Maserati engine. I drove quattroporte years ago and sound was amazing.
It also had fuel economy meter that was only in green when idling. As soon as you stepped on gas, it went to red 🤣
One of these pulled up beside me at a gas station once and when the owner started it up and left I was surprised on how awesome it sounds. The Levantes in my area seem to be favoured by firefighters judging by their speciality license plates and stickers.
Love that Italian Racing Stripe on the hood!! On Throttle Joe and Lori!!
I thought it gave it a killer look.
Looks ugly af. Makes it look cheap and tacky.
damn thing isent a straight line.damn ocd
Bad car. …… when you sell it. You will say FK
I cannot stand that racing stripe. Like putting a bumper sticker on the car. So awful.
Look at Joe! Pulling a Levante Trofeo out of his back pocket in Austin! Didn’t expect to see this today. Awesome Joe. Don’t like the price? Wait three years and you can pick one up for 75 to 80k with low miles. That’s how I bought my 17 Gran Turismo.
Thanks Michael for letting me bring it to you!
Are you sure the maintenance required cost is worth buying a 3 years old Maserati ?
@@martintokinaga5261 I don’t have an issue with the maintenance costs. Those costs are the same for a new car and you save on the depreciation. Plus you still have another year of factory warranty and I got a two year CPO from Maserati.
@@chabbysrides This is simply not true. There are standard maintenance requirement for cars at 40K, 60K...etc Some specific parts are recommended to be changed by the manufacturer. If you don't change those, you don't get any warranty left, if any. These maintenance normally started around 3-4 years or reaching 40k. Even the tyres, brake pads are required to be changed. So buying a 3-4 years old car means you inherited these costs very soon. No, you don't spend these when the car is new.
The stripe ruins the look big time IMO
No, not really
@@592xnle it’s all opinion …. He thinks it does you think it doesn’t …. I agree I think it’s stupid 🤷🏻♂️
It’s not even straight from roof to hood smh 🤦🏾♂️
@@592xnle lol that’s why he said IMO
No it doesn't, you got to be Italian to understand it.
Awesome SUV! cost he darned, I'd take one in a heartbeat! Great review, Joe! Lori, your smooth technique keeps bringing us amazing video, thanks for all you do!
We appreciate you Adam for always having our backs!
Thank you!
Love the levanté!! One of my favorite SUV, aggressive front, low wide, great performance. Little bulky but style is cool 😎, great vid Raiti's keep the work.
@血足。🙏😘 yup
this car is pure perfection. analog>digital all day just saying
Raiti takes so much time with research behind the scenes that makes this whole thing work. Respect sir, you're a very strong presenter.
This Levante Trofeo is a true example of art and speed mixed in with important history. 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
You are so very right about that!
All that’s missing is reliably
Art?! 🤣🤣 it's a trashy brand. I used to own a Gibli 2018 for over $100k I prefer to buy a s600 amg
@@zizigolo1227 Well, that beats my Venue 🤔
@@zizigolo1227 is it that bad ?
had no idea the engine bay was so beautiful, dope review!
There is nothing nice about engine bay its ugly .
It's ugly. You don't know what you are talking about. Also, the word 'dope' went out in the 90's.
It's hard to choose which one to choose from these Italian super SUVs but to me this suv is subtle while the urus stands out
That is so very true! It is nice to have options.
Love this SUV, but for $154K it should have stitched leather on the door tops, not soft touch. Middle of the steering wheel too.
Gonna be a great video! 🛎 squad! Hope you and Lori are doing great!
Thanks for saying that! We are awesome! I hope you are doing well!
Great review as always! Wanted to ask you an outside question in general how many hours do you work a day since your always uploading on time?
154,000?!?!?! I’d rather drive a 04 Honda and get a nice ass 2 story house
Excellent video Joe I am a fan of Maserati this SUV is sick
Thank you Antonio for letting me share this one with you!
As an Italian, I'm required to approve of this vehicle. lol
That is right or you would get a pair of cement shoes. LOL
Facts lol
This is my fave review of the 2022 Maserati Levante Trofeo. Thanks Joe!
Sadly here in Italy we don't ride all Maserati 😁 Oh the emotion watching you speeding up that road...!
Incidentally my neighbour has a Quattroporte and you can easily hear when he switch it on... Love Maserati sound! 👍
Have this exact color combo in a 2019 Levante Gransport. Absolutely love it. Don’t understand the hate for Maserati. A Urus is well over 2 bills. And a Durango Hellcat? Be serious. Could they have chromed out the switch gear? Sure. Wouldn’t have cost much to do it. But I don’t buy a car for the switch gear. Lol. That’s something that dope Doug would do.
yeah doug demuro is stupid
I think I would’ve preferred the tri-colori accented in the fender vents rather than the red 🤔
My very first Italian SUV!! Brilliant job Joe.
Such a beast, perhaps a bit overpriced though. Awesome vid!
I am so glad that I could bring this Italian stallion to you!
@@RaitisRides I thought you were the Italian stallion?
Yes it is overpriced. But it will be half the cost in about 2 years or so!
@@miniman1432 you are awesome Ian!
@@juliusbrewster very true!
Art, beauty & performance all in one !.
love your enthusiasm! i'm drooling about this trofeo...
The front reminds me of the Mach E
Remove the stripes. And red accents.
Beautiful suv
Beautiful front end.the whole car looks like the mustang mach E.btw Lori is just so smooth with the camera
Joe's Enthusiasm when he goes "On Throttle"😭😭😂😂😂
I’ve noticed the Italian manufacturers use small V8’s with turbos that are the size of others V6’s. I guess the engine compartments being smaller is the reason. 230MPH Speedo is kinda funny. The paddle shifters are the size that all paddle shifters should be. Thanks for the ride Joe and great job Lori!! 👍🏻👍🏻🇮🇹🇺🇸
You are so very right Larry! Thanks for letting us bring it to you!
taxes, registration and Insurance. note that the euro V6's are not over 3 liters and their V8's are not over 4 liters.
Who has a 3.8L V6?
@@MercOne Google is your friend.
@@LS1007 So in other words no one.
Sorry but those stripes have to be removed along with that red side grilles. Then it will be 🔥
“Everybody want the bulge “ 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Omggggg ride look bad ass. Thanks Joe and Lori
Thanks Kenny for letting me being it to you!
“If your ready, I’m ready for a little EAR-GASM!” Said Raiti! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Since Maserati is under the same umbrella as Dodge,Ram and Jeep,I have a great deal of confidence that the Levante will share the same heritage with those performance-minded giants,albeit with European refinement and Italian passion.
Quick aside:Chrysler used to own Lamborghini and borrowed from their engineering experience and expertise to convert their cast-iron block V-10, which was designed for trucks, and told Lamborghini engineers to make it suitable for the future Dodge Viper. You can still find traces of that heritage in the Hellcat editions of the Dodge,Jeep and Ram.
Great review. I blew away a Levante Modena S V8 in my 2SS. It beat me off to the line but once we got past 60mph it didn't have enough. Sounded glorious as I passed it though😎
That is so awesome!
I have a Levante and it’s not in the same ball park as the Urus. It’s a fun nice car but there’s a reason sticker is 154 and within two years it will be under 100. The urus pays attention to the details. That’s why used urus models still sell for over MSRP.
That infotainment system in a 150k car is a travesty
You rock dude you're car descriptions are unreal keep rocking it dude woohoo
Awesome video!! Grazie!
You are so very welcome!
Are the windows open when you are filming? I have the beggar's version levante and I can barely hear the sound. I wonder the difference in sound volume is that big?
Can’t wait to see you review the mc20
Great review also are you able to review a 2005 Porsche Cayenne or that gen?
I am working on it.
Thanks it will be worth it the sound of that engine is Beautiful
I could be wrong Raiti but I think the Trofeo comes with 590HP and the GTS has 550HP
I know a guy with this 2022 Trofeo on order to go along with his awesome (super)car collection.
I love it my boy Joe keep up the work and I love the video 💯 💯💯💯
Best levante review ever!
Joe pumps out videos like McDonald's pumps out burgers...yet they are all sooo good. Quantity AND quality!
You guys deserve the best!
@@RaitisRides We appreciate it, brother! Man, you're already back in Austin! I'll be back there soon as well.
@@damachine3 We are bouncing around all over the place!
@@RaitisRides Yeah man, I feel you...I'm on the road about as much as I'm at home! My wife and I are all over the country (and out of the country). Crazy, but good stuff!
Which one is your favorite Levante Trefeo or Alfa Romero Stelveo. My favorite is Stelveo.
New subscriber. I was considering purchasing a Maserati suv….you just convinced me. Thanks!
did u get it?
Not yet
$154k now. $40k in 2023. Maserati’s are stupid terrible on resale.
Not with the way used prices are going.
what u taking about people love to hate on it but it's so fun to drive and better looking, good luck getting a ferrari engine for 40k
That why you lease it, who buy those luxury cars
great vid! good lookin SUV. Not sure I'll ever need something this badass just to go pickup groceries at my trader joes.
Lori & I love Trader Joes!
Love this beast. Expensive as hell but a lovely small suv. Thanks Joe
God Job from Italy Raiti's 🤟
Joe, I have a question. Why is there the Italian flag 🇮🇹 colors on the hood?
It is a special option and Maserati is an Italian brand.
Joe, how do you not zonk that ridiculous tricolor stripe? That stripe is one of the dumbest stripes I’ve seen on a vehicle. Imagine being the person driving this SUV and looking like a try hard in life. The overall look of this suv with that stripe is just stupid.
easily best looking car in its class
Wow joe! I’ve been looking forward to this exciting beast!!!
@血足。🙏😘 get out
No heating or ventilating in the rear seats in a brand like that?
What were they thinking by having the chrome in back? Bad idea, considering the rest of the exterior accents.
What sorcery is this? I was looking on the car market for a levante and you have a new video on it. It's a sign to get one soon.. anyway, great video as usual.
You must have hacked my TH-cam... we JUST started looking this up yesterday!!!! You two have done it again!!!👏👏👏
Another classic presentation Joe 👍👊🇬🇧🇺🇸
Thanks Danny for pulling in!
How are you Joe? MASERATI TIME!!!
I am doing awesome Tom! How are you?
@@RaitisRides I'm good!
@@stellantistom6881 I am happy to hear!
@@RaitisRides ;D
Road to 700k LETS GOOOo!!!!
Didn't mention the plastic parts from Chrysler Door switches turn signals
I love the red Interior
Loving the history lesson Joe!!!
Hmmm....nice package
Not so sure about that paint job 🤔
Thanks! I am glad that I could bring it to you!
I like the way it looks
Thank you for mentioning the Texas dust Joe! Reminding me that I need to clean our vehicles... Everything is graphene coated and I usually detail with the hybrid solution ceramic spray from turtle wax. I have yet to find a good anti static coating that holds up to Texas heat and dust they usually show on the glass and flatten the depth of paint. Love the Continental's as well they hold up better than Michelin performance tires and no complaints on the performance offerings from Hankook. Also haven't had good experiences driving under the hot sun and then getting caught in a quick heavy downpour with Pirelli tires. That keyfob looks heavy. 🤣We make our sauce real ... Absolutely! Italian Spaniard here.
PERFECT BACKGROUND MUSIC JOE!!! That motor.👌
Thanks Jacob for sharing that great info!
@@JacobVichique The best sound every!
Shout out Lori. Happy Thanx Givin'...BL3$$.
Front facia looks great 👍
Awesome ride!
Joe, How does the Levante Trofeo stack up against the X5 M, AMG GLE, RSQ8, Cayenne Turbo, and Durango Hellcat?
Stay tuned man! I am bringing it all!
Don’t forget f pace and SRV
*I remember when 3.8s was Supercar standard...*
Digging the rims Joe!!!
This thing will be an endless money pit, but the sound of these cars is amazing, are they worth the price absolutely not mainly due to depreciation. But I say this as a lease car not bad.
Thank God, I will buy one for myself
Thanks you Lori
Nice review keep up the good work
They are out of their minds asking over 150k for this vehicle
What do you think the price should be?
its good to see you smile sir
Looks as if someone tacked a bunch of Ebay “ badges “ onto it lol
150k for this when the Porsche Cayenne turbo, The ALPINA XB7, the X7 M50i, the X6 M, the Durango hellcat, The Jeep Trackhawk, the Audi SQ8, the RS Q8, and many other suvs exist??? Oh, my bad Joe, I almost forgot. The trident logos make all the difference. Thanks Maserati.
Sound like another typical masi hater, just enjoy it stop being so sour
@@Processing321 he not sour, he saying the truth.
It’s not a bad ride either it may be not as it’s competitors but still a heck of a beauty
This thing is cool but that Durango Hellcat is a different monster!
Those superchargers are nothing to play with sadly everyone is going towards turbo, Jaguar, Land Rover, Dodge are the few that still have supercharger car I believe
whare are you going to put the front plate number?
It´s gorgeous.
I had a feeling you would like this one Omar.
I leased a Levante when they first came out back in ‘17. Mine was the base version but it had nearly $20K in options. It was the showroom floor Levante so it had to be beautiful obviously. Let me tell you something, if don’t option it out, the interior is ugly. It looks like you’re driving a $10K car. So remember people, if you buy/lease this, you’ll want to add options to actually make the interior feel luxurious. And like Porsche, they’ll nickel and dime you for EVERYTHING. You’ll understand what I mean when they give you a plain loaner to drive during your service. It’s horrid lol.
Now all the good stuff. The braking, handling, exterior styling, engine and especially the SOUND is what you expect from Maserati. Definitely a head turner. I was getting compliments EVERYWHERE I went. I couldn’t tell you how many people would walk up to me and start asking questions. I miss those days. 🙂
Those are some very good pointers from your experience!
The stripe down the car looks cheap and a poor afterthought by some marketing insider. This is a $150K vehicle. That Stripe is a design disgrace. imho.
It's beautiful and the review was awesome BUT I'm taking the Urus all day.
Seats 💺 look incredible 😍
I would’ve reviewed a white or red one to show it’s true beauty
You act like he gets a choice in colors….. cmon man get real with this BS comment
@@KAZ109 your comment is pure trash, as a member of this platform that we both signed up for, you should know that my comment is solely me speaking from my own opinion. My opinion has nothing to do with the actuality of what in happening in this video, I get he has a test car in the color they gave him, I’m speaking if I would’ve did the review. So tell me, who’s comment is really BS.. my long response to you or your quick to reply to my opinion?
I like it, but honestly this thing doesn't have anything on a BMW SUV like the X5 or 6 M Competition. The BMW interior definitely blows this thing out of the water. In fact this video shows just how far behind Maserati is.
Engine looks 👌 🔥
Faster than a husky sheds hair ✅😂 lol
A little Armor All on the tires wouldn’t hurt. They also should have carried over the Italian 🇮🇹 stripe theme to the vent trims.
