The all-new Maserati GranTurismo debuted in October 2022 and will come in both ICE-powered and EV flavors. However, Maserati didn’t show us photos of the 2+2 cabin until today, when a detailed gallery with interior and exterior shots appeared on the official media channels.
The Maserati GranTurismo is offered in
three versions. Both the entry-level Modena and the performance-oriented Trofeo
are fitted with the twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6, albeit in different states of tune
producing 490 hp and 550 hp respectively.
As for the zero-emission Folgore, it features a trio of electric motors
producing a combined 751 hp, taking power from the 92.5 kWh
800-Volt battery pack. In order to differentiate each version of the
GranTurismo, Maserati opted for different styling touches on the exterior and
unique color and trim combinations inside the cabin.
The dashboard layout looks very similar to
the Maserati Grecale SUV, incorporating the company’s latest interior design
language. While most of the components are shared with the Grecale, the
GranTurismo looks more premium thanks to the detailing and stitching on the
leather-wrapped dashboard and door cards, the textured inserts, and the shiny
metal accents. The Modena has a nice combination of beige/black upholstery with
wood inserts, the Trofeo has a black theme with red stitching and carbon fiber,
while the Folgore is flashier with blue/white upholstery and a unique treatment
for the dashboard.
Predictably, the GranTurismo is full of
digital gimmicks, including a 12.2-inch digital instrument cluster, a 12.3-inch
touchscreen for the infotainment, another 8.8-inch touchscreen in the center
console, a fancy digital clock with an analog face, and a heads-up display.
Some will complain about Maserati’s decision not to offer physical buttons for
the climate controls, but the automaker bravely calls its touch-sensitive panel
the “simplest and fastest digital climate control on the market”. The
three-spoke steering wheel is shared with the Grecale, incorporating the
start-stop button and a manettino-style rotating dial for the drive modes.
The four seats look more comfortable than
sporty, with integrated headrests proudly exhibiting the Trident emblem. Other
interior shots highlight the 1,195-Watt sound system by Sonus Faber with 19
speakers, the Granturismo badge on the passenger side of the dashboard, the
Italian flag next to the climate vents, and the hidden “Since 1914” lettering
on the side moldings.
Usually, models with a 2+2 layout are not
as roomy but Maserati claims the GranTurismo can accommodate four adults thanks
to the design of the roofline. We can’t really judge from the press shots but
the rear headroom appears to be the least of the problems for the rear
passengers that have very little room for their knees. Still, not many owners
of the GranTurismo will use it as a four-seater for long distances – those will
opt for the Quattroporte.
