Maserati 222 SR
The 222 SE was updated already in 1991, since the Biturbo range was subject to a restyling which included new lights, radiator grille, 7-spoke alloys and even a new aerodynamic spoiler at the base of the windscreen.
Mechanically there were little changes, save for the introduction of the newly devised “intelligent” suspension as an optional. In total, 210 units of the 222 SE and SR were built.
