What the Critics Say
“There isn’t much “timeless design” in the world of cars these days, but the GranTurismo convertible—and its coupe sibling—are a rare exception. Beyond its looks, another key to the GranTurismo’s timeless appeal is its glorious, naturally aspirated 4.7-liter V-8, which Maserati jointly developed with Ferrari.” – Automobile Magazine
“Off and running, the GranTurismo makes truly glorious music. Unencumbered by turbochargers, it unleashes an animalistic growl at idle my wife swears sounds like a pack of baby leopards. Building toward its 7,500-rpm redline, the growl becomes a howl that burrows into your soul where it’ll never be forgotten.” – Motor Trend
Maserati GranTurismo Convertible Features
Race-Inspired Performance
A critical aspect of any grand touring convertible is a proven powertrain that delivers smooth, refined power across long expanses of highway in addition to the ability to unleash its fury in an instant. The ideal powertrain for this task is its Ferrari-built 4.7-liter V8 engine that’s both compact and lightweight. This engine will get your pulse pounding thanks to its ability to rev to an impressive 7,000 RPM along with producing 454 horsepower and 384 lb-ft of torque.
A result of its track-inspired engineering, you’ll have the ability to accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in a blistering 4.9 seconds on the way to a top track speed of 177 MPH. Equally as comfortable as it is precise, customizable drive modes allow you to tailor the standard ZF six-speed MC Auto Shift gearbox to match your preferences. Examples of these modes include Auto-Normal, Auto-Sport, Manual-Normal, Manual-Sport and I.C.E. (Increased Control & Efficiency). Hydraulic steering and a double-wishbone suspension combine to help enhance your connection to the road. Standard Brembo brakes help keep the immense power of the Maserati GranTurismo Convertible under control.
Iconic Styling
Expertly-chiseled proportions and quintessentially-Italian styling cues allow the GranTurismo Convertible to stay true to the storied heritage of Maserati vehicles. Striking design accents found on the exterior include a prominent front grille, signature triple side vents, and an elegant aerodynamic profile. Fundamental components of any grand touring experience are comfort and convenience. These two aspects are represented by an automatic top with a thermal glass rear window, allowing you to raise or lower the roof in just a matter of seconds. Different from most convertibles, the aesthetic of the vehicle remains unchanged even with the roof up. For extra convenience, the trunk and doors are equipped with an electronic opening assist.
Luxurious Cabin
From the moment you grasp the three-spoke sport steering wheel, you’ll gain an appreciation for the precision craftsmanship infused into the Maserati GranTurismo Convertible. Providing you with a blend of support and comfort are standard sport seats which are available in sumptuous Poltrona Frau™ leather or Alcantara featuring hand-stitched details along with Trident-embroidered headrests. Optional interior trim accents are available in carbon fiber, wood, and MC Edition aluminum.
