Quattroporte
Maserati · on record 1996 to 2025
Quattroporte means 4 doors, and Maserati has used the name for successive high performance luxury saloons since the 1960s. Generations differ dramatically in platform, engines and size, but all place Italian grand touring character into an executive saloon format. Later models were sold in far greater numbers than the early hand built cars, so the name spans both rare classics and relatively modern used luxury vehicles.
Red List classification, from population, five year trajectory and survival against peak. Reviewed each census.
2025 census
73.4% of the peak fleet remains licensed
peak 1,445 in 2018 · −71 vehicles a year, five year trend
Population history
Licensed and SORN vehicles at each census. The filters below apply to the family population, MOT and registration figures. They do not alter the generation history above.
At the average decline recorded over the latest five years, the licensed fleet would reach zero around 2040.
Illustrative projection only; vehicle populations rarely decline linearly. Late fleets typically flatten as surviving examples enter preservation.
Inside the surviving fleet
AutoCensus parses every DVLA variant description, so the fleet can be read by fuel and specification rather than as one number.
First registrations by year
When surviving examples first joined the British fleet.
New registrations
Vehicles first registered each year. A fleet still being sold shows here; a finished one shows only imports.
MOT reliability
DVSA test results for this family, 2005 to 2025.
| Failure reason | Failures | Share of all tests |
|---|---|---|
| The grooves of the tread pattern are not at least 1.6mm throughout a continuous band comprising the central three-quarters of the breadth of tread, and round the entire outer circumference of the tyre | 570 | 2.4% |
| The calculated parking brake efficiency is too low | 497 | 2.1% |
| Tyre tread depth not in accordance with the requirements | 422 | 1.7% |
| Amalgamation of failures for all headlamp testers | 297 | 1.2% |
| A tyre cords visible or damaged | 281 | 1.2% |
| A wiper blade insecure, missing or in such a condition that it does not clear the windscreen effectively to give the driver an adequate view of the road (through the windscreen) to the left and right sides of the vehicle, as well as to the front | 256 | 1.1% |
| Wiper blade missing or obviously not clearing the windscreen | 245 | 1.0% |
| A spring or spring component fractured or seriously weakened | 220 | 0.9% |
Counted across every recorded test, 2005 to 2025. Advisories are excluded.
Where the Quattroporte remains
Based on MOT test locations, 2025. Test location is a proxy: a vehicle is counted where it was last tested, not where it is kept.

How this record was calculated
Full methodology
Population history combines DVLA VEH0120 Q4 census observations through 2013 with the annual VEH0220 census from 2014 onward. Figures before 2014 cover Great Britain only. Historical VEH0120 is used only when its overlapping UK observations reconcile to the current canonical family definition. Vehicles are grouped into this family using the DVLA GenModel together with durable routing rules for known inconsistencies.
Variant figures are parsed from raw DVLA model descriptions and the original string is always retained. Configuration is only assigned where the model description explicitly identifies it; a blank configuration is not treated as a two door Wrangler. Blank transmission fields are shown as manual because DVLA records the field for automatic vehicles.
MOT figures count tests, not vehicles, and geographic figures count each vehicle at its most recent test location. The decline projection is a straight line fitted to the latest five years and is illustrative only.
