Maserati
GranTurismo
The Maserati GranTurismo is grand tourer
produced by Italian automaker Maserati. It was officially
presented at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2007. The
GranTurismo is a two-door 2+2 coupé. Many design
elements come from the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano, which
is also a grand tourer.
The engine is the same Ferrari-sourced
4.2-litre (4244 cc) unit which is currently used in
the Maserati Coupé, Maserati Spyder, GranSport,
Trofeo and Quattroporte, although uprated to a maximum
output of 405 hp. The GranTurismo uses a wet sump and
the transmission is located in the front of the vehicle,
as opposed to a dry sump and a rear-mounted transmission
used on Duo Select models of the Coupé and Quattroporte. |
