Maserati GranCabrio Sport

The Maserati GranCabrio Sport is an enhanced version of the GranCabrio, one which offers better handling and performance over the standard car, and also complements vehicles like the GranTurismo S and Quattroporte Sport GT S in the company's 'sport' range.

The Maserati GranCabrio Sport uses a more powerful, yet more efficient, version of Maserati's 4.7 litre V8. The output of 450 horsepower is 10 hp up on the standard car, and the torque figure of 510 Nm is 20 Nm more than the normal GranCabrio. Despite these higher performance figures the engine is 6 percent more efficient on fuel thanks to Maserati's 'Friction Reduction Program'.

This six-speed transmission is fitted with the super-fast MC Auto Shift software which has been developed for the GranCabrio Sport directly from the transmission in the Quattroporte Sport GT S.

The handling of the GranCabrio Sport has also been enhanced thanks to an upgraded and revised version of the Skyhook active-suspension system - now with a sportier tuning - and the addition of grooved and drilled brake discs.

The styling of the Maserati GranCabrio Sport has also undergone some tweaks to differentiate it from the base car. The changes start with the black grille and Trident emblem with red accents. The headlights have been given a sinister black background complimented by white sidemarkers. Additionally the GranCabrio Sport receives new front corner splitters and side skirts.

The final change is a new body color for the GranCabrio Sport; Rosso Trionfale. This rich red paintwork was inspired by the color used on 1950s racing Maseratis.
