Exterior

dawn’s silhouette is characterised by a bold optimism, always poised and ready to go. Slender roof proportions and a strong, sweeping shoulder line give a sensuous yet contemporary look. A powerful front end points towards new frontiers, creating a vision of dynamism and progress, even when stationary.

dawn is an intrepid statement, with a form to match. The crafted French seam in the soft-top roof offers an unbroken surface and stunning aesthetics. The windscreen frame, created as a single piece, enhances the sense of grace and fluidity, while the wider track and iconic grille lend purity and authority. An emblem of ease and opportunity, the roof opens in just 22 seconds, revealing an open deck area that connects you to your surroundings like never before.

Performance

The engine of the Maserati GranTurismo Convertible is a 90 degree V8 of 4,691 cm3, which can generate 444 HP at 7,000 rpm, and a maximum torque of 376 lb/ft at 4,750 rpm. Like all Maserati engines, it has been designed to deliver high specific power, smooth response and low emissions with maximum fuel efficiency.

The Maserati GranTurismo Convertible is designed to have near-ideal weight distribution, with a slightly greater load over the rear axle: 49% at the front and 51% at the rear with the top up; 48% at the front and 52% at the rear with the top down. This setting—obtained by moving the engine behind the front axle—maximizes traction and further improves the car’s predictable handling and stability.

The six-speed ZF fully automatic gearbox with hydraulic torque converter provides extremely smooth gear shifts, improving the ride without diminishing the responsive and powerful V8 engine. There are four operating modes: Auto Normal, Auto Sport, Auto I.C.E. and Manual. In Manual mode, the gears are selected directly by the driver in sequence, using the gear lever or the steering wheel-mounted paddles.

Interior

The unique spirit of the Maserati GranTurismo Convertible is apparent in the design of its interior: the fortunate driver and passengers enjoy an exclusive aura of refined elegance. The luxurious accommodations are a reflection of superb craftsmanship, combining racing style and supreme comfort. Importantly, the interior of the GranTurismo Convertible is far larger than other convertibles in its class, and offers outstanding comfort for four adults in true Maserati fashion.
