RUclips Glitched out on me this morning and only allowed 360p! Re-uploaded and finally in 4K. Sorry for that. Huge Thanks to Boston Motorsports and to the Patreon Supporters for making this content possible.
🙏
Was allignment correct?
360p gang?
Why is that yellow paint on the maserati cost $16000 although I do love it
I went through those same roads last week for a soccer game
Never could I ever relate to a car guy's opinion so much before. The car community needs this type of content. Keep it up!
It's a good day when ted uploads
when the levante was first released it was so hyped that it got underappreciated so quick and no one looked at it again. but i feel that this version will be much more successful than the first gen.
Last I checked, we don’t drive on paper! Totally with you that - specs never tell the whole story!
I like the positive energy you have on your videos i can feel your excitement and then i become excited about the review too!
Definitely appreciated! Thank you
Hard not to when you get to do this for a living 😭
You can't NOT fall in love with this car in that color!
this channel has actually helped me get better at driving just by watching the way he drives really helps
He is very good and as great habits to follow! Especially using his signals lol
@@legodude19999 so very true
Very true
Staying in the right lane keeps the road rage away.
@@legodude19999 heavily agree
Lights are everything
Plus the use of the horn, light double taps for modest attention
WOW! The new Levante looks so good! I've got the 2018 Levante and it is seriously the best car i have ever had! Really nice review!
Good Italian pronunciation!
Mah più o meno
😬😬 looks like Peter griffin’s pronunciation
Wife has one and I drive it a good bit. For the money, we liked it much more than the Q8. 40k miles and holding up better than my s4.
Very accurate review though. It’s a dinosaur but I like that’s it’s not super common and reasonably fun to drive for a boat. Worth noting that these sell new for 15-20% off instantly. Inflated MSRP is my biggest gripe.
True. Just looking at Autotrader, you can get the 424hp Levante for $10k off just to start out. I'd take this over the Cayenne which is it's closest competitor.
I already said this on your Alfa video, but I will say again that you understand very well what makes a car and driving a car interesting. Unlike the vast majority of those who talk about cars, and think that everything is in how practical the car is and how many cup holders the car has. Thank you for another great video.
Your videos, really, are truly 'something else'. So much high[er] quality content. Hat off to you.
Finally, the good quality the video diserved from the beginning!
RUclips being youtube, huh? Great video as always though, and your italian was quite good!
Thanks! And yeah absolutely nothing has gone my way today lol
Hilarious someone paid 16 grand for this color only to get the base engine. That’s a questionable decision. Otherwise an awesome car with so much character!
some dont care i.e. my dad has a high optioned 5 series ( in europe), with the smallest engine available. He says the smallest engine is the best because it has the best fuel economy and needs the least maintainance.
@@kingprone7846 but i think if you want to save money just buy the regular version then which this levante isnt
Great video Ted, love your content.
Yes, you are doing OK with the pronunciation!!! ;-) (lovely video, as always)
Ye, the italian pronounciation is way better than a lot of non-italian people. Props to you for that, and for the content as always of course!
If someone ever hits this car, the cops will look at them real weird when they say they didn’t see it.
😂
Clean! Really like this Maserati
I’m used to dunking on Maserati’s because of them being cheap and dated a lot of the time but these new ones are growing on me
Your reviews are great. I to drove a 70s ghibli and it was surprisingly truck like then I found out it had a solid rear axle with leaf springs. Nick Murray should buy that yellow levante.
what a stunning machine
I like the older grill on mine and mettalic black paint .looks good.
Thanks for sharing, regards from Just Driving 4K🥰🥰🥰
360p gang stand up
There's that beautiful quality!
Yesss. The original version still hasn’t processed!!! RUclips is a mess sometimes.
Sick vid🔥🔥
Beautiful Car
Now I can watch this in peace 🤝
This new wave of Masaratis look super sharp
"It's not even that fast, but the 'pop' is just that fun!"
- sounds like me when I had my GTI hehe
I’ve never been this early
Even in 360p I enjoyed it just as much! 👍🏻
Thank you!
I absolutely agree on you that more car reviewers should be focusing on the actual driving experience. I think ultimately the feeling is what matters most when driving a car.
They just read the brochure to the camera. It's insufferable lol
2:49 upshift pop reminds me of the GT3 cars at LeMans
You should a review on a 350/370z ! Would be sick
OR... you could get the no-cost black and then wrap it that color: protects the finish and paint and it’s easy to care for. And it costs $12,000 less.
You know what ? I'm crazy enough that I would do the bonnet latch the same yellow as the rest, not because money, because ocd, yes I'm that kind of crazy ahaha
I'm all about driving feel above all else, but it's for that reason that I only ever seem to enjoy rwd, low, NA, manual cars. It's just a shame there are so few new cars that fit the bill
More people need to hear your take on this. I can happily bag on Alfa Romeos being crap cars that spend more time in the shop than on the road and nobody can refute me because there is objective data out there to support that. That being said I don't care and I still want a 4C!
4C review incoming. I drove the last spyder ever made
Yes! Maserati is so passionate that you feel it while driving. They're amazing because of that, thank you for this cool video with that incredible colored Levante.
Can you do the Jaguar f type in the parking lot
Driving experience is so under talked about. A 100 horsepower Miata can be 100x more fun than a 300 horsepower Camry. People focus too much on numbers and judge cars without even driving them. Also a slow 0-60 time does not mean the car cant be fun!
Absolutely true! Handling ,steering feel and feedback makes up for it. You’re not a true vehicle enthusiast if you don’t enjoy even driving a normal/slow car. Slow fast is more fun and engaging thus fast fast
I've never thought i'd say but i love this Yellow Levante... Not a fan of bis SUV's, this is the exception
Haha honestly same. Yellow was surprisingly charming
@@TedwardDrives Never seen something like that here in Italy, all in blue, grey, black and white (some one in bordeaux)
Ever since the Ghibli, Maserati left a bad taste in my mouth; but wow this is a step up
Low profile tires on Mass highways gets your butt in shape
Nice, now drive the trofeo edition with 500 hp 😏
@tedward pls test drive Mercedes gle 53 or 63!
My only complaint is that you didn't talk about the new infotainment which is a 1000 yrs better than the previous gen
Honestly, I would have fun driving literally anything. Except torque converter automatic city cars.
I mean those school buses look fun as hell... let alone the cars you get to drive... I am more than a little jealous, I have to say. But at least we can watch it here on youtube!
Hey Tedward, I need your opinion. What you think is faster? This car or an X6 40i? Same engine as an M340i. And what feels the fastest? Ty!
I’d put my money on the x6. I haven’t driven it but it’s probably quicker
@@TedwardDrives well my parent have one but if im honest, with the OPF here in Europe, it doesnt sound nearly as good at this thing. Those pops on the upshift are just insane! Might post a sound check on @belgain_x6 later. You will hear how poor sound is around here😥
The car is a beautiful piece of Italian craftsmanship. If a little bulky. Still, very capable, and sexy. However, I do prefer the Stelvio Quadrifoglio...it's a 'meaner' machine IMHO. Your thoughts Ted?? Big kisses from Florence
we are look for a replacement for our s-class right now. Maybe we should at something that makes less sense and more fun
I always recommend test driving some cars you normally wouldn’t consider. You may still end up with a familiar brand but it’s good to at least find out if you might enjoy a change
Chrysler Pentastar block surrounded in parts that aren't crap for once.
It’s a very beautiful car too bad Doug roasted it XD
That's a lovely color, but it doesn't look like it's $16,000 worth of paint.
Is it allowed to make memes out of your POVs?
Do you think 16k paint is worth it for a 342 hp car? Genuine question.
@@micropens That depends. Is that power enough for your needs? Is it the best looking car of its segment to you? Is that the color you always wanted? If the answer to those three questions is "Yes", then yeah, it is. If not, probably not.
16k is a 💩 ton of money for paint 🎨
@@futurepharmdman Indeed. I assume that the person who can afford to buy $16,000 paint does not find that to be an issue, though. :)
You should get a Jeep trackhawk or Srt
Do you ever test the top speed of these cars?
How? Theres a speed limit everywhere.
@@caecium695 yeah i didn’t really think of that lol
@@lukec.7782 ahaha nice. Should move to germany to do top speed runs
Maserati? Or BMW ?
Not sure if it's just the way it comes across on camera or what, gauge/clock whatever it is on the top center of the dash looks like it's pointed to the passenger rather than the driver. Even if it's in a neutral position between the two seats, I've seen other manufacturers with something similar that I've been able to read much easier from your POV. That annoys me
you forgot to the italian gesture ;)
Wow 16 grand for the paint job?!?
When you opened the hood and the engine cover sees “V6” that made me so sad. Imagine if this had the GT v8 not this per wee 6 cylinder. Come on fiat....
lol I clicked this video thinking it was The Topher
Dodgerati Fiatante
Drivinng to a car mechanic
I don't get this idea that column mounted paddles are sporty. All serious racing cars have paddles on the steering wheel. And since most serious sporty road cars have progressive steering these days column mounted makes even less sense.
I had always understood Maserati mad bad cars, i now want a levante regardless of what people say
They couldn’t spec using $12K to get a better trim with a lot more horsepower, but they could use $16K for a paint job... Are you kidding me?
Mercedes Benz EQS
The mirrors are so square 😐
That's wasn't an impressive exhaust note. It also needs custom exhaust like most cars.
I can't believe that we call an SUV sports car...
When your GTI stage 1 makes the same horsepower, gets 50% better MPG, and weighs 1,600 lbs less.
But is it yellow? 🍌
It's such a shame that Maserati borrows most of the switchgear from low end Chrysler/Jeep products
$16k to look like a New York taxi cab
Seems like a bargain since a taxi medallion costs about $200,000
Wouldn't drive it, even if they paid me to. xD
Dang! Was just going to offer you $500 to drive it
@@TedwardDrives Haha, nothing personal! xD I just really, really don't like SUVs. :)
Love your BMW videos though, especially the snow ones! :)
Great videos! Admire your respectfully passion for Italian cars but… it’s simple, open google translate and check the Italian words you’d like to pronunce. You sounds like you’re joking, not in offensive way I mean but a smart person like you could do better 🙂
If you can come to Massachusetts and pronounce our town names then I’ll trust you
@@TedwardDrives buy me the ticket 🤣
The exterior is ugly, especially the new front and Grill work they did, and the yellow paint sucks.
👍👍👍
0/10 Couldnt hear the $16,000 paint job
oh. It's an SUV.
