The Maserati GranTurismo is an upcoming grand tourer to be produced by Italian automaker Maserati. It was oficially 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 Coupe, Spyder, GranSport and Quattroporte, although uprated to a maximum output of 405 hp. The vehicle also boasts a 49/51 front/rear weight distribution—extraordinary for a front-engined car. There is speculation that a GranSport model will carry a 470 bhp 4.7-litre V8 from Alfa Romeo's 8C Competitizione.
