If more power is required, there is also a 523 horsepower-making 3.8L V8 engine. Both engines are mated to a 8 speed automatic transmission. The Quattroporte reaches 60 MPH from zero in 5.1 seconds on its base engine, which gets pumped up to 4.7 seconds with the 3.8L V8. Depending on the powertrain, the Quattroporte can manage a combined fuel economy between 17 and 18 MPG.
