In Vietnam, many wealthy individuals have spent billions of dollars to purchase limited editions of the Maserati brand, including models like the Levante Trofeo Launch Edition (limited to 100 units worldwide), Ghibli Rebelle (limited to 30 units in Asia), Ghibili Scatenato (limited to 100 units worldwide), etc.
Recently, the Italian car manufacturer has brought another special edition to Vietnam with the name F Tributo, developed on two models, the Ghibili and the Levante. Both cars are the only ones being distributed in the Southeast Asian region, and also the unique in our country. According to the manufacturer, there are only 15 units of the Levante F Tributo available for the whole of Asia.
This Maserati Levante F Tributo Special Edition is produced to honor the first female Formula One racing driver, Maria Teresa De Filippis. In her first participation in the race held in 1958 in Monaco, she drove a Maserati 250F. In 2004, she founded the Maserati Club in her home country, Italy.
The Orange Devil color of the car is based on the paint color of the 250F car that the Italian female racing driver once commanded. This is a paint color that is exclusively available only on this special edition, and customers cannot customize it when purchasing the Fuoriserie personalization package or changing the car’s paint color.
To enhance the sporty look of this SUV, the manufacturer has blackened certain exterior details such as the front air duct trim, front bumper trim, grille, 3-strip side air vents, window frame trim, rear door horizontal trim, and rear bumper trim.
This special edition also features numerous cobalt blue accents such as the “F Tributo” logo on the side, the “trident” logo on the C-pillar, the outline on the wheels, and the brake calipers.
The car uses gunmetal gray multi-spoke wheels, size 21 inches.
The interior of the car is primarily wrapped in black leather, accentuated by orange and cobalt blue stitching similar to the color combination on the exterior. The design remains the same, with an 8.4-inch center entertainment screen and some standard features such as the Harman Kardon audio system, panoramic sunroof, etc.
The seats are wrapped in Pieno Fiore natural leather. The front seats are manually embroidered with the brand logo and the “F Tributo” lettering in orange, while the rear seats only feature the “trident” logo.
Some positions in the interior are made of carbon material, such as the passenger-side dashboard, the upper door handle trim, and the center control panel.
The “heart” of the unique Levante F Tributo in Vietnam is a twin-turbocharged V6 engine with a capacity of 3.0 liters, producing a maximum power of 430 horsepower and a peak torque of 580 Nm. Combined with this engine is the all-wheel drive AWD system and an 8-speed automatic transmission. The sporty SUV can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.7 seconds before reaching a top speed of 286 km/h.
The engine configuration of the Levante F Tributo is in between the two currently available versions in Vietnam, including the standard V6 350 horsepower (priced at 5.5 billion VND) and the Trofeo variant with a V8 580 horsepower engine (priced at 14.06 billion VND). The exact price of this special edition has not been announced by the distributor, but it is estimated to be between these two versions.
The standard version of the Levante competes with the Porsche Cayenne (priced from 5.56 billion VND), while the Trofeo version competes with rivals like Aston Martin DBX or Lamborghini Urus S.
