The Maserati Quattroporte goes to Automatic gearbox 6 speed made by ZF , will be showcased at Detroit motorshow.I think the car lacks off exclusivity with that equipement.They should have kept the sequential system much sportier and more hi tech

6 speed is old news... now the lexus has 8 speed, I dont know why Maserati is making a big deal of it. they should stick to F1 sequential gear box which is more exotic

i think some people who bought the car didn't like the refinement of the sequential gearbox. So a full automatic is understandable. No need to make a showcase out of it though!
