Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale
February 27, 2013
Maserati has revealed it plans to show its new four-seater GranTurismo alongside the Quattroporte at the upcoming Geneva auto show.
While the new Quattroporte will be the Trident’s headline act at Geneva, the GranTurismo MC Stradale will also enjoy its world debut at the event.
The new four-seater is described by Maserati as being ‘the optimum expression of sportiness combined with the luxury of a coupe’.
The four-seater is said to take its inspiration from the carmaker’s racing version of the GranTurismo contesting the Maserati Trofeo Championship and its racing intentions are highlighted by its carbon fibre bonnet and new forged 20-inch alloy wheels, among others.
Of course, it is expected that the Stradale will do more than merely look the part. Urge is provided by a 4.7-litre V8 engine that is now fitted across the GT range. It is mated to a six-speed sequential manual gearbox. Maserati assures work has also been completed to reduce the range’s overall fuel consumption and emissions.
