NEW YORK, April 12 — Maserati has announced two North American premieres that will take place at the New York International Auto Show next week — and neither one is a new vehicle. 

Maserati announced on Wednesday that instead of debuting new cars at the New York Auto Show this year, it will debut an extensive customisation programme and a new interior trim made in collaboration with Italian luxury fashion house Ermenegildo Zegna.

One-Of-One customisation programme

This programme, which will roll out to US-based dealerships in the near future, will allow individual customers to personally select from thousands of interior and exterior options to design a vehicle tailored to their needs and tastes “whether it’s a favourite colour palette, material or design inspiration.” To celebrate the New York Auto Show, Maserati created a surprise, never-before-seen One Of One customised Levante GTS for a celebrity who will be given the keys on April 17.

Secondly, Maserati will debut a bronze Levante with a luxurious Pelletessuta interior developed with Ermenegildo Zegna. With this trim, the seats are upholstered in a lightweight woven Nappa leather that the company describes as supple, durable, comfortable, and beautiful. The option will arrive to US showrooms during the spring of next year on several models.
