Stunning 2009 Maserati GranTurismo S Promo Video

Yesterday, we showed you a video of the 440 Hp “GranTurismo S” from Maserati’s Geneva Show booth including a description of the vehicle from the Italian carmaker’s CEO, Roberto Ronchi. However, that was just an appetizer. Now it’s time for the main course. Just follow the jump to see (and hear…) Maserati’s awe-inspiring “GranTurismo S” promo video; it’s definitely worth your time. -Continued

Geneva Video: Maserati GranTurismo S 440Hp

The new GranTurismo S is an even sportier version of Maserati’s coupe featuring a more powerful 440 HP V8 4.7 engine matted to a new dual-clutch semi-auto transmission. The GranTurismo S accelerates from 0 to 100 Km/h (62 mph) in 4.9 sec and achieves a maximum speed of 295 Km/h or 184 mph, the highest ever reached by a production Maserati. Apart from the still shots from Maserati’s Geneva stand, the video also includes the Italian carmaker’s CEO Roberto Ronchi, presenting the GranTurismo S in detail. -Video right after the jump

Our Dutch friends over at Autoblog.nl received a set of images from one of their readers featuring what seems to be a prototype for an upcoming Coupe-Cabrio (CC) version the Maserati GranTurismo.

And if you’re wondering why we believe that the car seen here is a prototype for a drop-top version of Maserati’s glamourpuss coupe, then you’ll have to see another of set of images (check out the first picture after the jump) featuring a similar test mule on the dynometer.

Despite the fact that these images were passed on as a test mule for the Ferrari Dino, if you look carefully and check out the size and shape of the boot along with the way it’s hinged, the car we’re seeing here is most probably a convertible with a retractable folding hardtop. -Continued: Click “Read More…” below
