Comparison Review

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Lexus ES 300h as you will with the Maserati Ghibli, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). Based on MSRP, the Lexus ES 300h is clearly a better financial choice over the Maserati Ghibli.

Dimensions
Since the Lexus ES 300h is much slimmer than the Maserati Ghibli, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the Lexus ES 300h takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Maserati Ghibli.

Handling
The Lexus ES 300h has about the same turning radius as the Maserati Ghibli, allowing equal maneuverability in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Lexus ES 300h is significantly less powerful than the Maserati Ghibli. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.

Powertrain
The Lexus ES 300h has much less torque than the Maserati Ghibli, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Lexus ES 300h and the Maserati Ghibli.
