Launching with both internal combustion and fully electric powertrains, the new Gran Turismo combines classic style with modern technology. Maserati remains loyal to its traditions here, combining the performance and Italian craftsmanship seen in the first ever road-going Maserati. From the outset you’ll have the choice of two versions of Maserati’s new turbocharged V6 with 490 horsepower or 550 horsepower in the Trofeo version. The pure electric version meanwhile offers a total output of 760 horsepower and a big battery to go the distance on those long roadtrips, helped by a special Max Range mode.

The new model manages its weight with a multi-material approach, utilising parts made from lightweight aluminium, magnesium and high-performance steels. The innovation extends to the electronics as well with what Maserati calls a Vehicle Domain Control Module (VDCM) master controller. This software aims to provide 360-degree control of all the most important car systems, for the optimum driving experience for any conditions.

From sportiness to driver-centric luxury and comfort, the Gran Turismo is promises to shake things up in the GT market, with production starting at the end of this year. The brand’s goal to fuse sports performance and long-distance comfort, with the option of battery or internal combustion power could just be the embodiment of the modern GT car.
