The Levante receives Maserati's new infotainment interface for 2021, but unlike its sedan siblings—the Ghibli and Quattroporte—it sticks with an 8.4-inch display. The new software is based on Google's Android Automotive and offers a voice-activated virtual assistant, in-dash navigation, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto; a wireless charging pad is also new this year.
Pros Seductive exterior styling, growling exhaust note, quick acceleration times.
Cons Second-class interior switches, not as cargo-friendly as the competition, expensive pricing.
