MASERATI AUTHENTICITY 1. AUTHENTICITY 6 O NLY TH O SE WH O INVENTED IT CAN REDEFINE IT . IT WAS 1947. The original idea of installing a racing engine in a roadgoing car gave birth to the famed A6 1500 GT Pininfarina, the first Maserati “Granturismo.” Ever since, Maserati has led the world in the construction of cars with unmistakable class and thrilling performance, exciting to drive, with a sumptuous interior. 60 YEARS LATER, THE DREAM LIVES ON. Designed for daily as well as long distance drives, the Maserati GranTurismo has been created for those who appreciate true sophistication, and want their car to deliver an emotional driving experience day after day. THE MASERATI PHILOSOPHY LOOKS TO THE FUTURE. Excellence is achieved through passion in terms of both technology and hand-crafted quality. This is what it takes to win more than 30 international “Best Car” awards (visit maseratiawards.com). In the modern, high-tech Modena factory, expertise, professionalism and loving care over every detail make our cars unique. All this is the outcome of the genuine passion that every engineer, technician and specialist uses to design, test and finish every single car as if it were their own. THE STORY CONTINUES. Now Maserati adds to the GranTurismo range by introducing the GranTurismo S, a new, more aggressive adaptation to the Maserati line of sports coupes. MASERATI AUTHENTICITY 7 THE Maserati GRANTURISMO S. RaciNG SPIRIT, ATHLETIC LOOK, Latest TECHNOLOGY. For those in search of a unique car with character, ability and power, Maserati has created the GranTurismo S. It is a car created to provide unbeatable style and dynamism to keep its driver’s pulse racing with its extraordinary technical performance. The Maserati GranTurismo S encapsulates all of the features needed for the finest sports driving experience in a single car, plus the style and luxury of a true granturismo, with proper seating for four adults. The full-bodied sound of the engine is strong and powerful, with a tone that could only come from an Italian V8. The Transaxle system for the engine and gearbox is derived from Maserati racing technology, and gives the GranTurismo S unmatched balance for a front engined GT. Setting the GranTurismo S apart visually are the 20” Neptune design wheels, side sills, and integrated spoiler tuned in the wind tunnel. Every moment at the wheel of Maserati’s latest masterpiece is a thrilling experience to be savored. Maserati’s work with Brembo® has resulted in an exclusive dual-cast braking system which gives confidence during high performance driving. It is impossible not to notice the unmistakable look of elegance and speed: Pininfarina’s skilful hand has given the GranTurismo S its modern and sleek, yet aggressive profile. Trident badges on the grille and rear pillar featuring red highlights, which match the standard red color of the brake calipers, enhance the dynamic look of the GranTurismo S. MASERATI 2. DESIGN DESIGN S t y l e i S a f a m i l y t r a i t , u n m i S t a k a b l e t h r o u g h o u t g e n e r a t i o n S . 9 EVERY NEW MASERATI IS ALWAYS STYLED TO BE A UNIQUE SYMBOL OF PRESTIGE. THE LINES, CURVES AND CONTOURS OF THIS GENERATION HAVE BEEN DRAWN BY PININFARINA’S MASTERLY HAND. With its decisive personality and blend of power and elegance, the Maserati GranTurismo S is a modern-day masterpiece. Its style and design are combined with a presence of muscular lines and functional forms. Inspired by the Maserati Birdcage 75th concept car, the exterior appears powerful, with a natural fluidity that starts at the front grille and extends all the way along the sides to the tail lights. This stunning design, with careful attention paid to every detail, is the outcome of lengthy and meticulous aerodynamic studies. The wind tunnel, where the finishing touches were put on the GranTurismo’s lines, was a crucial stage in this Maserati’s development. MASERATI DESIGN 11 GUIDE TO A UNIQUE STYLE The imposing and captivating front begins with the oval grille, with the headlights extending horizontally alongside to blend perfectly into the front end. The grille, comprised of vertical concave slats, is adorned with a chrome Trident that appears to be suspended in the middle. The long hood, with the classic “V” shape, has three air intakes on each side in classic Maserati style, which lighten the nose section and give an overall image of dynamism and verve. The rear also echoes the GranTurismo’s sportiness and high-tech soul: the triangular rear lights use 96 LED lights, and a wide aerodynamic diffuser opens out over the bottom part of the bumper. The lines of the interior highlight the unmistakable Maserati style: the distinctive “V” runs right along the top of the dashboard, outlining the traditional oval Maserati clock, and underscoring the exclusivity of this interior design. It also appears as the marque’s signature symbol on a variety of detail features, from the door panels to the rear pillars. The understated yet charismatic detailing is exquisite: the subtle chrome ring that decorates the buttons on the dashboard and steering wheel, the Trident logo that is hand-crafted on the seat head-rests, all lined in soft, tactile material. These are just a few examples of the attention to detail in which Maserati believes so strongly. All this creates an overall image that cannot fail to impress. The result is a dynamic body and refined interior to match the GranTurismo’s prodigious power and performance. ATHLETIC LOOK FOR THE MASERATI GRANTURISMO S Lean and athletic, the Maserati GranTurismo S is immediately recognizable by a series of stylistic details that underline its sporty nature, including seven-spoke 20” Neptune Design rims (standard in Grigio Mercury), integrated sideskirts and the distinctive spoiler incorporated into the trunk lid. All this not only gives the car a decidedly sportier, more aggressive character, but also increases its aerodynamic efficiency. Specially designed in the wind tunnel, the side skirts direct the flow of air towards the rear wheels, while the spoiler increases the car’s aerodynamic down force at high speeds.

In addition to performance, the Maserati GranTurismo S offers the highest levels of comfort, making longer trips a true pleasure. And unlike most sportscars, the GranTurismo S has proper seating for four adult occupants, allowing you to share those journeys with others. The spacious seating allows for plenty of room to stretch one’s legs, relax, and enjoy the ride in the car’s beautiful interior finished in Poltrona Frau® leather. THE INTERIOR: IRRESISTIBLE AND LUXURIOUS. When you sit at the wheel of a car with the high-performance capability of the Maserati GranTurismo S, it is important to feel comfortable, secure and in control. The interior of every new Maserati GranTurismo S can be personalized, with a wide range of choices to suit unique taste: standard is a new exclusive Alutex trim, a high-tech woven fabric that gives the interior a truly sporty feel and bright appearance. This Alutex trim gives the moldings of the dashboard, door panels and rear side panels an added element of prestige from a special processing which gives the fabric a three-dimensional effect. Also available is exquisite Walnut Briarwood, Tanganyka, Rosewood and Black Piano. The driver’s style is also reflected in the seats. Still more personalization options for the GranTurismo S include choosing from a range of colors for the Poltrona Frau® leather and Alcantara® suede that will line the seats. The paddle shifters located on the steering column are elegantly tapered to fit the hand comfortably while driving, and also stylish with chrome trim. They are lengthened on the GranTurismo S so that they
