caption_attribution_description: English: A 1985 Maserati Biturbo E, tipo AM 331B25. 2.5 litre twin-turbo V6, built in Modena. 1190 Maseratis were sold in the US in 1985. The "E" was a better equipped, sportier, version of the 2.5 litre Biturbo as sold in most export markets.
context_page_description: The Maserati Biturbo was a family of executive grand tourers produced by Italian automobile manufacturer Maserati between 1981 and 1994. The original Biturbo was a two-door, four-seater notchback coupé featuring, as the name implies, a two-litre V6 engine with two turbochargers and a luxurious interior.
  The car was designed by Pierangelo Andreani, Chief of Centro Stile Maserati up to 1981, somewhat influenced by the design of the then recent Quattroporte III.
  All Maserati models introduced from the Biturbo's inception in 1981 until 1997 were based on the original Biturbo architecture, including the later grand tourers like the Shamal and Ghibli II. The Barchetta, while of a different layout entirely, used an ultimate version of the Biturbo V6 engine.
