The latest addition to the Maserati range is the Maserati GranSport.

It is a new model celebrating the concept of sportiness at the heart of all of the Trident’s Grand Tourers, due to be unveiled to the world for the first time at Geneva’s International Motor Show.

The new car, which joins the Coupé and Spyder in the Maserati range, goes on sale next summer. The GranSport’s name alone suggests its eager thoroughbred GT spirit, the kind of spirit that can provide plenty of fun on demand for the driver. The GranSport name also has a special symbolic significance for the Trident as it was first used in the 1950s for an elegant two-liter coupe designed by the Carozzeria Frua on the base of the famous A6 G.

The new GranSport, however, is designed to offer an exciting alternative to the current Coupé, and as such, has been treated to series of new enhancements that give it a very powerful temperament indeed.

The Maserati GranSport is available in the six sportiest colors in the Maserati range, each one of which can be combined with various interior options.

Owners can choose from the classic Giallo Granturismo (Grand Tourer Yellow) and Rosso Mondiale (World Championship Red) or, alternatively between the metallic Nero Carbonio (Carbon Black), Blu Mediterraneo (Mediterranean Blue) and Grigio Touring (Touring Grey). The sixth color choice recently added to the range is Bianco Fuji (Fuji White), an original pearl white with the unusual depth typical of three-coat pearlescent paints. This is the starting point from which the Officine Alfieri Maserati program can be used to include a vast array of other personalization options regarding the colors of the interior trim leather, fabric as well as technical or comfort-oriented features, such as: Xenon headlights, Skyhook suspension, Mercury Grey and Ball-Polished options for the wheels, carbon interior and exterior components, GPS and GSM telephone module controlled from the radio unit, and a six-disc CD Changer, to mention but a few.
