Not much so far really, but here is what I found.
Three engines will be offered. a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine delivering 410 horsepower, a twin-turbocharged 3.8-liter V-8 engine with 530 horsepower and a turbo-diesel engine only offered in Europe. All of the engines will be connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission and will all have all-wheel-drive.
That is about it for details. Abstractly we can expect the Levante to be built with a lot of aluminum to reduce weight and some of the electronic architecture from Chrysler and Jeep.

Along with sharing some things with Chrysler and Jeep, it will be built at a Chrysler plant in Michigan.Not much so far really, but here is what I found.

Anyone not impressed with it being built in America?
they should seriously consider bringing the turbo diesel to north america.
I heard that they decided against building the Levante in Michigan. Now they are planning on building them all in Italy. In Turin or Mirafiori. I'm not sure exactly the reasons why, sounds like something to do with investments. You can read about through the link at the bottom of this post.

it would probably cost more to retrofit a plant here to be able to build the Levante. Might be cheaper to keep it in italy.
Tbh it belongs in Italy.

With a plant in Italy I wouldn't be surprised if the cost to build them their is higher, just look at how well built things are over their. there's probably a level of quality they have to live up to that comes at a higher price.it would probably cost more to retrofit a plant here to be able to build the Levante.

With the company making a lot more money now, they may want to bring jobs to Italy where the company is based, instead of overseas. Decision is made now though.

i put my money on that happening with a flagship model, usually that's where car makers these days put their best in. for mass produced vehicles, don't expect it.
I think it would be more favorable for buyers if it was made in Italy.
it would but financially it seems it's not something that would work for Maserati at this time and for this vehicle. building flagship models in it's home market is what they will do, not these mass produced cars.I think it would be more favorable for buyers if it was made in Italy.
not being built in America. That was posturing by Marchionne when he was in a spat with the Italian Labor Union. Plus the Jefferson North factory the Levante could of been built at is at full capacity with Grand Cherokee demand.
Levante is going to be built at FIATs Mirafiori complex, FIATS flagship facility...

that's good news, 'flagship' means a lot, the Levante being built at Fiat's flagship plant just means built quality it upped by a lot. maybe we can expect less problems nownot being built in America.

does that mean shared parts with Fiat?
Maybe if Fiat has a vehicle like it. But it seems like they want to stay completely unique with this one. With the way things are going the only "shared parts" i see happening are very generic things like air filters, fuel filters, oil filters, etc.
