GranTurismo [Spy Shots] [2021] Maserati Granturismo

[Centurion]

This could be something achingly beautiful.

Agreed. I'm more excited about a sexy and romantic Granturismo than the very expensive mid-engined flagship.

Kudos to their commitment in incorporating tridents in their wheels.

They’ve been doing it in almost every wheel. Their names are also awesome: Nettuno, Titano… everything has a story, I love it!

The GT MC from 2015 onward is still, imho, one of the most beautiful cars ever made. Plus good examples can be had for $70-80k. What a bargain.

It’s a gorgeous car even through the camo. Is it an EV only??

It will also be available with Maseratis' new Nettuno V6 biturbo, I believe.

What a seriously tantalizing side profile.

Hopefully, Maseratis' design department has gotten the details right. This may turn out to be an example of automotive sculpture of the highest order-and along with the 992 Porsche 911s', the most visually compelling new 2 door GT* available .

*=Yep-the 992s' generous dimensions have me perceiving it as a "GT" of sorts.

let's say also that it will be much lighter than the predecessor with the Giorgio platform, with nice interiors and modern cockpit and using up to Nettuno engine so potentially up to 630 hp. Not forgetting four real seats. If all will be true, it seems to be quite an unique offer in this nich market

Isn't it. I'll happily drive it even if a few exterior details are off. The interior is the only thing that could ruin the car for me. I find the cabin of the MC20 to be very sterile/sparse.

 

[Serpens]

I expect it to have a much nicer interior than the MC20.

 

[savage-It]

what would you bet will be the starting price with the Nettuno engine? do you think they will feel the pressure coming from the ROMA?

... do you think they will feel the pressure coming from the ROMA?

From what the prototype images indicate, the Granturismo has a substantially larger footprint than the Roma. And it should be able to generously accomodate four. The Roma is actually a "2+" rather than a genuine 2+2.

Even though I like Ferrari's new design language, but Roma does not have so beautiful proportions. Roma's rear is too short. I wish Ferrari had such an elegant model. Roma, 812 etc dont even come close. Smth is wrong with their proportions.
I just hope they won't ruin this car with an interior from the MC20.

Solely in terms of exterior design, the Ferrari 812 is the sort of Ferrari that I love to hate. Ostentatious, vulgar.

This car is going to look sleek and sensual.

I family resemblance to the MC20 is a good thing, front lights and grill going to look great.

I don't know if it's me but it looks mostly very similar to the current one in general lines

I noticed that too, but for some reason it doesn’t bother me, for this car revolutionary changes are redundant, it’s quite an old design but still very relevant, I’m glad they kept it.

I also see the same lines, but I think that some modern tweaks here and there will make the car fresh enough for what is now considered a niche product, and in my opinion, the current version is beautifully proportioned and among the best looking coupes to begin with.

Agree. With many cars being criticized for looking too similar to competitors its nice to see Maserati stick to well-known lines for this car.
