Maserati GranTurismo
Beauty is the Maserati GranTurismo's most potent weapon. Its taut lines, rippling
muscles and polished surfaces immediately grab the eye. Sculptured and sexy, elegant
and well-balanced, the GranTurismo's visual presence sets the pulse racing. Its
authentic style is unmistakably Maserati, transmitting power, sensuality and refi
nement to their limits. Pininfarina has created a design that symbolizes the very
nature of the GranTurismo concept, combining sporty performance in a spacious car
for four adults.
Scintillating acceleration, precise entry into curves, impeccable stability and
sharp brakes. The GranTurismo is able to deliver the most intense emotions on the
road, not only to the driver but also to the passengers.
Specification
The beating heart of the GranTurismo is a 4244cc 90° V8 engine. It is a power unit
that forms part of the new stable of Maserati engines. Compact and light, with the
cylinder block and heads in aluminium and silicon alloy, the engine boasts 32 valves
actioned by twin overhead camshafts per cylinder bank with lowpressure variable
phase intake cams.
The GranTurismo's engine was created with one noble objective in mind: to guarantee
the high peak power (95.4 bhp/litre) and speed of engine response typical of a competition
unit to assure smooth acceleration and a quiet running. The result is immediately
evident. As soon as the Maserati V8 comes to life, the driver can enjoy the sporty,
pitch-perfect note.
