The concept of Gran Turismo
Typically, a gran tourer is a front-engine, two-door coupé with rear-wheel drive, a two-seat or a 2+2 arrangement. Born and bred in Italy, the original concept of Gran Turismo involved covering hundreds of kilometres in style and comfort, at high speeds. What’s more, with enough room for luggage.
Maserati chose to embody this two-sided spirit, creating an intrinsic and intriguing tension: on the one hand, elegance, refinement, craftsmanship; on the other, a rebellious spirit, a hunger for performance, a need for adventure.
