Hello, what the title says. Lots of posts in this forum with “Levante” and “wife” on the same sentence, I have seen a few on the road, all driven by women, nothing wrong with that, just curious if it’s a popular women SUV.
I just bought one for my wife as well and like it very much, 2018 base engine Gransport for 50% off it’s original price... no brainer! It has a few trim quality issues and sounds better than it performs, but still a pleasure to drive.

I've only seen three in my area over two years. All drivers were men. That being said, I think it's a great car for women too. Though most that have been near mine aren't sure they like that sport mode tone...The one most men love.

Levante base = wife's car
Levante GTS = man's car

same with range rovers, GLEs, cayennes, and macans to me.... base version = wife's car, but SVR, AMG, or Turbo.... oh yes please

I had a buddy trying to puff out his chest with his base cayenne with soccer mom stock rims... had to put him in his place lol

I put my wife in a RRS HSE Dynamic Supercharged on 22s, because I drive it too sometimes :)

Ha funny, I just bought my wife an SQ4 Gransport. I won’t lie tho I really like it.

My GT was in the shop so I took the Levante out on a ‘cruise’ with a local club. Got some weird looks till I blew their governor limited doors off going 165.

I’m gonna wait and see but there might be some deals to be had on used Trofeos or GTS in the near future and upgrade.

In the mean time I am lowering the vehicle and putting on Spacers to improve the stance. Might do Sport cats and an ECU tune as well, but don’t want to invest that much money if I am going to trade it in.

What did the tune cost? What`s the process?

I think it was just over a $1000...not sure on the exact cost cause I bought a bunch of other stuff too from them. They have it on / / / FORMULA DYNAMICS - MASERATI & FERRARI SPECIALISTS / / /

Process is pretty simple.
You have to remove your ECU and Ship it to them. They include overnight shipping both ways in the total cost.
Just a few screws/bolts to remove a plastic cover in the engine bay, disconnect the two main wiring harnesses. Pops right out.
