Maserati GranTurismo
November 07
 
 

The Maserati GranTurismo, one of the most eagerly anticipated cars in 2007, has officially arrived in Australia and New Zealand with its unveiling at the Australian International Motor Show today (11 October 2007) but with more than 130 already sold in Australia and New Zealand, GranTurismo is already sold out until mid-2008.

 
     
 
 
     
 

Following the launch at the Motor Show, the first customer cars will arrive in December with full deliveries getting underway in early 2008, meeting demand that began as soon as the car was revealed to the world at this year’s Geneva International Motor Show in March

“The acclaim for the Maserati GranTurimso started as soon as the wraps came off in March,” says Edward Butler, General Manager for Maserati Australia and New Zealand. “This was immediately followed by people wishing to be the first to own the car in Australia and New Zealand. The impetus for this demand was initiated by the reputation Maserati Quattroporte, from which the unique drivetrain for the GranTurismo was developed. This ensures that the new car is a true performance car. But it is the outstanding design of the GranTurismo, inside and out, allied to allure of true heritage and exclusivity, which has set the seal of success on our newest model.”

The new Maserati GranTurismo makes the most of the experience gained with the Quattroporte in the luxury model segment, interpreting in an absolutely unique manner those concepts that have made the Quattroporte such a success in all markets.

Added to this, the new Maserati GranTurismo is able to offer top performance and a style that is unique within the automotive industry, and can thrill and attract the attention of the market and new potential customers with renewed vigour and urgency.

The car’s concept appears evident from its name: the new Maserati GranTurismo is actually a performance sports car, enjoyable to drive, that makes no compromises when it comes to on-board functionality and comfort. The unique offering of the Maserati GranTurismo encompasses:

  • Design with an immediate visual impact
  • Style inspired by the lines of the Pininfarina Birdcage 75th concept car
  • Style and dimensions blend into a thoroughbred and ultra-performance car body, but never going over the top, always well-proportioned and elegant.
  • The heart of the Maserati GranTurismo is the 4,244 cc 90° V8 which belongs to the new generation of Maserati power units, designed for its first application early in 2007 on the Maserati Quattroporte’s automatic gearbox versions.

    The V8 adopted for the Maserati GranTurismo has been especially fine-tuned from the engine fitted to the Quattroporte’s automatic versions in order to enhance its responsiveness to the throttle controls. In this configuration it delivers maximum power of 298 Kw at 7,100 revs (specific power of 96.4 HP/Liter) and maximum torque of 460 Nm at 4,750 revs, of which 75% is available at 2,500 revs.
