Bigland commented "Our remarkable performance in China last year was a major contributor to our record-breaking global sales. China's elites are increasingly enamoured by the Italian brand of luxury, exquisite craftsmanship and passion for driving that are poured into every Maserati.”

The company sells its entire global product line up in India which includes the the Ghibli and Quattroporte 4-door saloons and the GranTurismo and GranCabrio from their GT car line up as well. Maserati will soon launch the Levante in India. The Levante is an upcoming SUV which is the manufacturers first attempt at making a luxury off-roader.
