Designed by Pininfarina – The Maserati GranTurismo (GT) was designed by the legendary Italian design house Pininfarina, giving it an elegant yet aggressive look that remains iconic.
Derived from the Maserati Quattroporte – The GranTurismo is based on a shortened version of the Maserati Quattroporte platform, allowing it to offer both sporty handling and grand touring comfort.
Ferrari-Powered V8 Engine – The first-gen GranTurismo featured a 4.2-liter or 4.7-liter naturally aspirated V8, built by Ferrari, delivering an exhilarating exhaust note.
0-100 km/h in Under 5 Seconds – The base model with the 4.2L engine produced 405 hp, while the GranTurismo S (4.7L V8) produced 440 hp, allowing for 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) times as low as 4.5 seconds.
Skyhook Adaptive Suspension for Smooth Handling – The GranTurismo was available with Maserati’s Skyhook adaptive suspension, which automatically adjusted damping for a balance between comfort and performance.
GranTurismo MC Stradale – The Track-Focused Version – Maserati introduced the MC Stradale in 2011, featuring lighter weight, more power (460 hp), a race-tuned suspension, and aerodynamic improvements for a more aggressive driving experience.
One of the Longest-Running Grand Tourers – The first-generation GranTurismo was produced from 2007 to 2019, making it one of Maserati’s longest-running models, with only minor updates over the years.
Luxurious Interior with Italian Craftsmanship – The interior was handcrafted with fine leather by Poltrona Frau, offering a mix of luxury and sportiness, with four full-sized seats, making it a true grand tourer.
GranCabrio – The Convertible Version – In 2010, Maserati introduced the GranCabrio, a soft-top convertible version of the GranTurismo, maintaining the same V8 power and GT comfort.
Replaced by the Second-Generation GranTurismo in 2023 – After a long production run, Maserati finally introduced the new GranTurismo (M189) in 2023, featuring a twin-turbo V6 and an all-electric “Folgore” version, marking the end of the naturally aspirated Ferrari V8 era.

The GranTurismo (GT) is Maserati’s front-engine V8 grand tourer, loved for its Pininfarina design and Ferrari-derived 4.7L V8.
