BMW M5 vs Maserati Quattroporte Comparison

The BMW M5 (G90) is a super saloon that has successfully addressed the modern need for sustainability without sacrificing the M division’s soul and spirit. While purists may not enjoy the increased weight and hybridisation, the trade-off is a vehicle that offers a genuinely usable electric range for week-to-week travel and power-packed V8 performance for the weekends.
It is the automotive equivalent of Clark Kent, mild-mannered and respectable on the surface, but capable of revealing a superpower when the situation demands it. If you are looking for a single vehicle that can serve as a luxury family hauler and a track-day weapon, the BMW M5 remains the pragmatic king of the super saloon segment. It is not just a car; it is a statement that the future of performance is both electric and exhilarating.

Bilal concludes,

“Does that make the M5 a bargain? Perhaps. It isn’t as flashy or flamboyant as a raging bull, but that is the point of a sleeper. Clark Kent doesn’t want the world to know how super he really is underneath.”

The GTS will set you back a good ₹ 2.2 crores and the one thing that Maserati has to deal with is the dealership network. It's just gotten back into the game, so it's still settling in and with dealerships in Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru, brand Maserati is looking at a good customer base. Though no one will question your choice of the GTS, you can opt for the diesel Quattroporte, which is cheaper than the GTS by more than a crore and has a better ride height and a softer suspension.
