Every car enthusiast has ever thought about being at least a little clairvoyant and managing to buy a car that will become the next classic and its price will rise noticeably. But some people buy a car just for their pleasure, and in this case it is better to buy it cheap. And which are the cars that have the potential to become the next ʺclassicsʺ?
Maserati
The internet visibility and popularity of luxury car brands serves us as a good indicator of what the sales numbers will be in the future and what trends will shape the global car industry. Every luxury car brand from our list pays a lot of attention to customers and runs appropriate online campaigns. They are a kind of reflection of what customers want.
The Maserati MC20 Coupe heralds a new era of the "Italian trident" and is the flagship of the brand, powerful in both its image and technology.
Maserati has presented an electrified car model for the first time in its 105-year history. This is the Maserati Ghibli Hybrid!
Levante is the name of the wind that blows across the Mediterranean Sea and is known for its capriciousness, when it changes from a light breeze to a violent storm in an instant. The latest Maserati Levante Trofeo makes its presence felt in the same way that it can transform from a sleek SUV to a thunderous SUV.
The more affordable Maserati Ghibli is a direct competitor to the holy trinity: BMW 5 Series, Audi A6 and Mercedes-Benz E-Class. It has a changed name, a slightly different look and some new technology added. From now on, you can hear the name Maserati Ghibli GranLusso.
The new GranTurismo of course. Although it was promised for next year, this year we only got a refresh of the GranTurismo and GranCabrio models. This time, they promise us something completely new for 2020.
You could say Maserati hasn't made a proper supercar since 2005, when they stopped producing the ultra-fast MC12. From afar, the Alfieri concept made us a bit more expensive, but unfortunately we didn't get to see more than the renovation of the GranTurismo, which has been in production for almost 10 years. So what should Maserati do to win back its loyal fans? Maybe this time's concept will encourage them to create something unique.
Having a Ghibli is nothing new. Named after the south wind of the North African dunes, Maserati first took its name back in 1966 and has since experienced two reincarnations. Now their smallest sedan has received a special Nerissimo (Italian superlative for black) version that will only be available to select people.
Maserati has announced that an electric version of the Maserati Alfieri will hit the roads in 2020. It may seem late, given that it will be most of the competition has already jumped on the electric train, but still, better late than never. An octane derivative is already coming in 2019. Sports Alfieri announced the concept in Geneva in 2014, but now the series production date is known and rumors of an electric version have been confirmed.
We're used to Maserati cars being lower in stature, and with their first SUV, the Maserati Levante, that's changing. The Italian brand of prestigious cars will present its first ever SUV at the Geneva Motor Show! It will join other prestigious SUVs such as the Porsche Cayenne, BMW X6, Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupé and Lexus RX.
Milan-based design house Zagato has unveiled its latest one-of-a-kind creation, the Zagato Maserati Mostro, which has a reason why it's called a monster. This individual and limited-quantity restoration of Maserati is dedicated to the centenary of this "trident" of the aristocratic car brand and the original monster, Frank Costino's 1957 Maserati 450S Coupe, nicknamed Mostro.
