Modena, Italy—29 February 2024—Maintaining its timeless allure, Maserati introduces the GranCabrio, now available as a spyder, catering to aficionados of luxurious motoring seeking unparalleled comfort and elegance. This latest addition epitomizes sophistication in an open-top variant of its esteemed counterpart, the award-winning GranTurismo.
At its debut, the Maserati GranCabrio arrives in the Trofeo configuration, boasting the formidable Nettuno engine—a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged inline-six generating 542 horsepower, serving as the resounding heartbeat of the Trident’s high-performance lineup.
Within the GranCabrio’s confines, the prodigious power of the Nettuno engine, the most potent ever harnessed for a Maserati GranTurismo, harmonizes seamlessly with uncompromising comfort for extended journeys. Now, augmented by the exhilaration of open-air driving, it beckons to embrace the full splendor of the voyage and the distinctiveness of a vehicle that excels from every perspective.
Crafted entirely in Italy, the Trident’s latest convertible follows the footsteps of the GranTurismo, presenting a captivating iteration of the quintessential grand tourer while preserving luxury, performance, driving comfort, and athleticism.
Featuring a fabric roof designed to minimize storage space when stowed automatically in the trunk, the GranCabrio ensures ample room for four occupants. It offers an ideal setting for shared or solitary journeys, reveling in the thrill of driving, and immersing in authentic Italian flair.
The elegance of the Maserati GranCabrio transcends from its exterior, especially when the soft top unfurls, accompanied by the symphony of the engine’s roar. The fusion with the surroundings and the road evokes an unparalleled sensation unique to the spyder variant of a vehicle that has scripted a legacy spanning over six decades—tracing back to the convertible rendition of Maserati’s inaugural road-legal sports car, the 3500 GT, unveiled at the 1959 Geneva Motor Show.
Maserati’s latest offering embodies luxury, enriching its stylistic nuances and premium materials to elevate the driving experience in homage to utmost pleasure, perfectly aligning with the landscape and the wanderlust inherent to GranCabrio enthusiasts.
However, meticulous attention to design and devotion to exclusive details do not eclipse performance and enjoyment. Likewise, technology is a defining trait and a transformative force, culminating in top-tier infotainment and driver assistance systems, ensuring safety and entertainment for those behind the wheel of a vehicle that brooks no compromise. It is an ideal companion for boundless journeys characterized by a harmonious blend of aesthetic finesse and unpretentious functionality.
The “open-air experience” is complemented by exceptional thermal and acoustic comfort, with the soft top available in five hues, controllable via a touch button on the central display, offering complete autonomy.
For fans of al fresco driving, Maserati introduces an innovative neck warmer as standard, providing three intensity levels to warm the occupants’ necks.
Among the optional features is the wind deflector, which can be deployed with two occupants and is manually foldable. With the top down, it diminishes turbulence within the cabin, facilitating optimal aerodynamics and enhancing driving pleasure.
Conceived in tandem with the GranTurismo, the new GranCabrio epitomizes the convergence of efficiency and the innate elegance of a vehicle that has remained steadfast in its identity over time—a sovereign of style characterized by the classical proportions synonymous with the marque from Modena while concurrently embracing technological advancements as the guardian of excellent mechanics and cutting-edge technology. The opulent interiors pay homage to the distinctive craftsmanship of the Italian marque, accentuating the characteristic “balance of opposites” and the audacious yet perpetually contemporary luxury in the tradition of Maserati’s most iconic vehicles.
