1 2 3 THE PURE GRAND TOURER As an idea, the GranTurismo—or grand tourer—is pure Italian, born and bred. In principle, the original concept was enticingly simple and involved traveling long distances in style and comfort and at high speed. Seamlessly combining these two worlds was far from simple, yet that is exactly what Maserati did in 1947 with the A6 1500 grand tourer. Such power had never been so beautifully packaged and delivered—revealing all manner of new long-distance possibilities in the process. Today’s GranTurismo coupes and convertibles are direct descendants of this innovation. They embody the irresistible allure of exotic Italian style combined with race-bred performance. They offer a tantalizing blend of exclusive luxury, progressive technology and surging power—with a spine-tingling soundtrack to match. 4 5 G GranTurismo Sport and GranTurismo MC each put a world of beautifully resolved contradictions in the palm of your hand. With every drive, these vehicles will immerse you in the pure joy of travel. There are some, however, who wish to experience performance from a different perspective. These individuals crave 6 wide-open skies, open-air exhilaration, and all the classic-yetcontemporary comforts one would expect from Maserati. For these explorers, we present the GranTurismo Convertible Sport and the GranTurismo Convertible MC. 7 100 ICONIC YEARS Maserati has enjoyed a long history of high-profile success on the racetrack. What we’ve learned over the years has directly shaped the design and performance characteristics of our cars. Maserati launched its first series-production GT car, the 3500 GT 2+2 sports coupe, in 1957, introducing important innovations such as twin-spark ignition, disc brakes and fuel injection. On December 1, 1914, Alfieri, Ernesto and Ettore Maserati set up their own business in Bologna, modifying Isotta Fraschinis for road racing. Stirling Moss and Dan Gurney won the 1960 1000 km Nürburgring in the Maserati Birdcage Tipo 61. In 1961, the Maserati Birdcage Tipo 61 took its second consecutive victory at the 1000 km Nürburgring, driven by Moss, Masten Gregory and Lloyd Casner. In 1926, Alfieri Maserati drove the Maserati Tipo 26 to victory in its first-ever race—a class win in the treacherous Targa Florio in the mountains of Sicily. Wilbur Shaw won the Indianapolis 500 at the wheel of the “Boyle Special” 8 CTF in 1939 at an average speed of 115 mph (185 km/h). Driving the same car, Shaw repeated his win in 1940, making Maserati the only European manufacturer to win the Indy 500 twice. The company began making road cars in 1947 and created the inspirational Maserati A6 1500 grand tourer—the first GranTurismo. In 1953, Juan Manuel Fangio won the Italian GP in a Maserati A6GCM; it was his first F1 victory with Maserati. Maserati celebrated success after success on the racetrack throughout the early part of the 20th century, with 29 victories in Formula 1, including Fangio’s 1957 Nürburgring F1 World Championship win. That victory, behind the wheel of a 250F, earned him and Maserati the F1 World Championship title. 8 In 1963, Maserati showcased the world’s first luxury four-door sports sedan, the Quattroporte. During the late 1960s and 1970s, the company launched a series of ultrahigh-performance supercars including the Mistral, Ghibli, Khamsin and Bora. The charismatic Maserati 3200 GT, styled by Giorgetto Giugiaro’s Italdesign, launched a new era in 1998. The year 2003 witnessed the unveiling of the fifth-generation Quattroporte—the first Maserati in 50 years to be designed by legendary Pininfarina. Maserati entered three MC12 GT1 racers in FIA GT in 2004, winning six Team, five Drivers’ and two Constructors’ Championships by 2010. The MC12 also scored three overall victories in the Spa 24 Hours. Maserati claimed a double victory in 2010. Piloting an MC12, Andrea Bertolini became the first Italian to win an FIA World Championship since Alberto Ascari in 1953. For Maserati, this auspicious achievement became the first FIA World Title since Fangio’s in 1957. 9 I TA LY I S R I C H I N W O N D E R S 10 11 HERE’S A UNIQUE ONE 12 13 TOURER DE FORCE You’re looking at endless dynamic promise. Whatever your ambition, whatever the distance, the Maserati GranTurismo Sport delivers—in luxurious, audacious style. The exterior tells the story perfectly. A powerful, completely restyled front end is dominated by a new deep-cut oval front grille with a chrome Trident, highlighted by red details. Only the most powerful Maserati models earn the right to wear this emblem. A revised sport-specific front splitter is paired with a rear extractor to optimize and balance downforce at speed. An elegant new trim, exclusive to the Sport version, features steeply raked bi-xenon headlights with Adaptive Light Control. Headlights with LED Daytime Running Lights integrate perfectly into the bumpers and feature a dramatic steel finish. 14 The side profile is inspired by Maserati’s historic Tipo 60/62 “Birdcage” and features such signature styling elements as triple air vent apertures in the front flanks and triangular C-pillars, embellished by the iconic Saetta logo. Imposing 20-inch Astro Design alloy wheels in silver accentuate the Sport’s firmly planted, purposeful stance. Visible behind these dazzling wheels are powerful Brembo brake calipers. At the rear, an all-new bumper echoes the front’s revised styling, creating a cohesive, striking look. New paint choices extend your opportunities for personal expression. Options include Pearlescent three-layer Blu Assoluto, Blu Inchiostro, Grigio Pietra, Rosso Italiano and Rosso Magma. With these unique finishes, unmistakable elegance gains a provocative edge. 15 EVERYTHING CONNECTS The GranTurismo Sport interior picks up on the dynamic themes of its exterior, with fine-tuned luxury imparting a sense of boundless potential. Soft, tactile Alcantara trim is an option on the steering wheel, with gearshift paddles that elegantly invite the driver to fully exploit the formidable 4.7-liter V8 engine. The Maserati Trident—a clear statement in itself—is handsewn into the headrests. Even the seat stitching, which reflects the lines of the low, crouching front grille, emphasizes sporting purpose combined with attention to every luxurious detail. Other 16 highlights include a new dashboard and clock design, traditional Poltrona Frau™ leather, and Dark Chrome or Ecochrome detailing on the door and quarter panels. Accessing the rear seats is simple, thanks to the Maserati Easy Entry system. Both front seats slide forward and back electrically, providing plenty of room for passenger entry or exit. Two individually profiled rear seats offer ample head and legroom. A central pull-down armrest, two cupholders, courtesy lights and a pair of climate-control vents offer enhanced comfort. 17 EXTREME EXPRESSION This is GranTurismo at its most extreme—a grand-touring automobile alive with the spirit of motorsport and evoking comfort and luxury that is the Maserati tradition. The GranTurismo MC is unabashedly unique. An optional lightweight carbon-fiber hood with an aggressive central air intake and two large air vents is the GranTurismo MC’s most striking aesthetic feature. The hood design is modeled after the MC Trofeo, a pure Maserati racer that shares many features with the production model. Also new is the front grille, presenting the face of Maserati at its menacing best, and an MC-specific front splitter with bespoke headlight trim. 18 19 O On a functional level, the front spoiler, side skirts, and slots in the re-profiled front bumper combine to maximize downforce at high speed while offering additional cooling for the brakes. The side skirts also integrate with the vents to channel airflow under the car’s body, thus increasing stability. The central positioning of the sport exhaust system’s twin tailpipes, meanwhile, regulates airflow to minimize turbulence and generate both downforce and stability. That’s not all those pipes do: The GranTurismo MC’s exhaust is raucous and exciting to the ear. The GranTurismo MC has new Pearlescent three-layer exterior colors available, including Blue Assoluto, Blue Inchiostro, Grigio Pietra, Rosso Italiano and Rosso Magma. Positioned on striking 20-inch Trofeo Design alloy wheels, the GranTurismo MC is ready for the grand tour of a lifetime or the next lap of the track. 20 21 R E F I N E M E N T I N T H E R AW The interior of the GranTurismo MC presents a compelling mix of athletic motorsport innovation with luxurious comfort and progressive technology. Front sport seats feature optional carbonfiber seat backs that contrast with luxurious optional Poltrona Frau™ leather and Alcantara. Standard seats are trimmed in a soft, seductive leather. The GranTurismo MC is offered with three choices of steering wheel, each with a race-optimized flat bottom and multifunction buttons. Each wheel can be finished in full leather, a combination of leather and Alcantara, or a fusion of leather and carbon fiber. Long gearshift paddles sharpen the sporting edge, making gear changes effortless even in the most demanding driving situations. 22 23 24 25 F LUID DYNAMIC S 26 The stunning profile of the GranTurismo Convertible Sport carries an unmistakable signature, with beautiful lines that have graced our vehicles for generations. The sleek-yet-imposing front end is all new and features a revised bumper, a functional splitter and prominent grille bearing the Maserati Trident. Bi-xenon headlamps, with integrated LED Daytime Running Lights and revised trim, integrate seamlessly into the car’s rising, muscular front flanks to accentuate emphatic power. 27 T The drama of the side view is heightened by short overhangs, a stretched hood and large, 20-inch alloy wheels. When the roof is raised, an impression of athletic fluidity is enhanced by rounded rear fenders and a new bumper design. Yet at the touch of a button, the car’s character takes on a new dimension: The roof disappears and a new, soul-stirring shape reveals itself. 28 29 UNIQUE ELEGANCE The interior of the GranTurismo Convertible Sport is character­ ized by a uniquely Italian sense of style. First to catch the eye is a newly designed dashboard with a signature V shape. Other highlights include Trident logos embroidered into the headrests and the flat-bottomed, three-spoke sport steering wheel with its profiled grip and multifunction buttons. With the roof down, the luxurious interior merges beautifully with the fluid lines of the body. This open, uninterrupted feel is enhanced by front seatbelt mounts that lie flush within the beltline of the body. The soft convertible top is made from an insulated triple-layer cloth design mated to a steel-and-aluminum frame for quiet, draft-free driving. A thermal-glass rear windscreen assures pleasant driving regardless of weather conditions. 30 31 P O W E R P L A Y The GranTurismo Convertible MC is the hardest-hitting Maserati convertible—a stunning combination of athletic purpose, seductive Italian style and luxurious comfort. A dramatically sculpted new front bumper and new front splitter combine with a spoiler and large air intakes to create an imposing profile with a distinct focus on sport. The rear features a high, centrally positioned exhaust and a new, dynamically designed bumper to improve rear airflow. An integrated spoiler artfully conceals a third brake light and embodies bold style while maximizing downforce. As a special touch, the available Bianco Birdcage three-layer Pearlescent paint finish with a hint of blue brings the seductive bodywork to rousing life. Maserati’s GranTurismo Convertible MC accentuates its powerful look with 20-inch MC Design wheels. 32 33 S K Y’S THE LIMIT The rich racing heritage of Maserati becomes a direct, handson experience inside the GranTurismo Convertible MC. When the roof is stowed, the sky really is the limit. Wraparound sport seats echo the elegant lines of the exterior while providing extra support required for spirited driving. Headrests integrated into the seatbacks are embroidered with the Maserati logo. The revised three-spoke sport steering wheel has a more heavily profiled grip, while the top and bottom of the rim are flattened to help ensure even greater focus and precision. Tucked behind the wheel are Trofeo Design gearshift paddles, available in a striking carbon-fiber finish. The accelerator and brake pedals, meanwhile, are honed from perforated aluminum as standard—a detail taken straight from the racetrack for lightness and grip. 34 35 T E C H N O L O G Y AT YOUR COMMAND A true GranTurismo needs a grand-scale engine to cross continents or release its fury at a moment’s notice. This is a job for our Ferrari-built 4.7-liter V8 engine. This compact and lightweight powertrain, fitted to all GranTurismo and GranTurismo Convertible models, develops 454 hp and 384 ft-lb of torque while revving to an impressive 7,000 rpm. Motorsport-derived technology is used extensively for race-grade resistance to highly dynamic loads and delivers exceptional refinement. The result is smooth and commanding cruising power at all times, breathtaking acceleration in any situation, and a legendary sound that could come only from a naturally aspirated, Italian-built V8 engine. The GranTurismo Sport and MC surge from zero to 62 mph in 4.8 seconds and 4.7 seconds, respectively, and on to a maximum speed of 186 mph and 187 mph. The GranTurismo Convertible Sport and GranTurismo Convertible MC reach 62 mph from a standing start in 5.0 seconds and 4.9 seconds, respectively. Top speeds are 179 mph and 181 mph. 36 All this power finds its way to the road via a ZF six-speed MC Auto Shift gearbox with Auto-Normal, Auto-Sport, Manual-Normal, Manual-Sport and ICE modes. These settings offer a wide range of driving styles—from gracefully comfortable to hard-edged and direct. Manual-Sport mode, for instance, delivers seamless upshifts and automatic rev-matching with each downshift. Revmatching eases the transition to lower gears while producing a dramatic soundtrack from the exhaust, to the great enjoyment of motorsport aficionados. Another highlight is gear-holding, which commands the transmission to hold a gear—all the way to redline—until it receives driver input. A rev-limiter override function and high-performance launch control feature expand driving thrills. A large, digital rpm indicator, meanwhile, perfects shift times for an even more engaging experience. 37 T E C H N O L O G Y BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL Near-perfect front-to-rear weight distribution—with a marginal rearward bias—has always been a Maserati hallmark. This tradition is achieved with the GranTurismo and GranTurismo Convertible models by positioning the V8 engine just behind the front axle. On the open road or on the racetrack this delivers a world of benefits, including naturally balanced handling, optimum grip, great steering feedback and precise directional stability. A double-wishbone suspension, a hydraulic steering rack for superb feedback, Brembo brakes, and a sophisticated mechanical limitedslip differential contribute to driving engagement. As for the GranTurismo Convertible, additional reinforcements in lightweight aluminum allow surefooted stability to the dynamic limit. The GranTurismo Sport and GranTurismo Convertible Sport both offer Sport Skyhook damping, which constantly adapts to suit road conditions.* Normal mode maintains the essential dynamic involvement you would expect of a Maserati while tailoring the ride for daily comfort. Sport mode provides a more direct and stable driving experience. The GranTurismo MC features standard lightweight 20-inch forgedalloy wheels wrapped in Pirelli’s fourth-generation PZero tires, specially designed to deliver greater mid-corner grip and progression. On road and track, these tires offer tremendous grip without sacrificing comfort—just as you expect of a true grand tourer. *Sport Skyhook is optional for GranTurismo MC and GranTurismo Convertible MC. 38 39 40 41 E N T E R T A I N M E N T A N D C O N N E C T I V I T Y ON-BOARD SOPHISTICATION Grand touring at this level requires a sophisticated combination of performance and elegance when it comes to on-board entertainment and connectivity. Maserati meets this demand with an advanced new premium audio system and a cutting-edge infotainment package. PREMIUM AUDIO Driving, or being driven in, a Maserati is a uniquely rousing experience. It is only fitting, therefore, that the GranTurismo be equipped with an audio system perfectly tuned to the mood— whether you’re driving dynamically or enjoying leisure miles on the trip of a lifetime.

Standard features include a folding front armrest with illuminated storage compartment, cruise control, automatic headlights, electric opening assist for the trunk and doors, dualzone automatic climate control with two rear vents, and much more. In addition to comfort, convenience and performance, Maserati places an emphasis on driving safety. The Maserati Stability Program (MSP), developed under stringent test conditions, uses an array of sensors to constantly monitor driving conditions, utilizing various safety and performance systems to optimize handling and grip. If, for instance, a skid is detected, MSP selectively reduces engine torque and can activate the brakes with finely varied inputs to help restore stability within milliseconds. Other safety functions include ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD); Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR); Motor-Spin Regulator (MSR), which prevents the wheels from locking when downshifting on low-grip surfaces; and Advanced Brake Assist (ABA), which responds to emergency braking situations by increasing brake pressure for maximum performance. H A N D S Additionally, the MSP works in harmony with ASR, traction control and ABS to stop the wheels from locking under hard braking. This advanced collaboration is also supported by Maserati’s Hydraulic Braking Assistance (HBA). When it comes to light and sight, all models are fitted with Adaptive Light Control, a system that pivots the headlights as you turn, greatly improving road illumination in corners. At the rear, triangular light clusters comprise 96 LEDs to offer maximum nighttime visibility. Daytime Running Lights (DLR) with LED technology make the vehicle easier to see during the day. A standard rear-view camera displays a wide-angle visual on the infotainment display to help facilitate easy, incident-free reversing.* All models are also equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) to warn drivers when a tire is underinflated. Passive safety is provided by an advanced air bag system with side curtain and seat-integrated air bags. In GranTurismo Convertible models, an extra level of security is provided by a telescopic roll bar system that deploys in less than 0.2 seconds. *Always check entire surroundings visually before moving forward or backing up. 44 45 P E R S O N A L I Z A T I O N TAILORED TO YOU Maserati is renowned for offering high levels of vehicle personal­ ization.
