Maserati GranTurismo MC – The Fastest Production Car Maserati Has Ever Sold in the US Market

Maserati GranTurismo MC for North America unveiled Maserati GranTurismo MC Italian sportscar maker Maserati has recently brought the Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale to U.S shore. The North American variant of the Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale is officially named as the Maserati GranTurismo MC, eliminates the Stradale word from its name. The US-market GranTurismo MC is nearly identical to the European-market MC Stradale, save for two key differences: for one, it replaces the Stradale’s sequential gearbox with the smoother ZF automatic transmission from the standard GranTurismo, and for another, puts the rear seats that were deleted for the Stradale back in place. All that slows the MC down a little, which now has a top speed of 298 km/h and a 0 to 100km/h sprint time of 4.9 seconds – 0.3 seconds slower than the MC Stradale with the MC Race Shift gearbox which boasts a top speed a shade higher at 300 km/h (186 mph). Powering the GranTurismo MC is the same 4.7-liter V8 unit as in the MC Stradale producing 450 PS (330 kW/444 hp) and 510 Nm (376 lb-ft) of torque.

Maserati GranCabrio Sport Maserati GranCabrio Sport The perfect choice for those in search of that wind-in-your-hair sensation combined with the excitement of finely-tuned, sports-car handling comes in the new Maserati Gran Cabrio Sport. Two years after the debut of Gran Cabrio at the 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show, Maserati will use the 2011 Geneva Motor Show to introduce the new Sport version, which will go on sale from the summer. Conceived to give the GranCabrio a harder-edged model to sit alongside the GranTurismo S and the Quattroporte Sport GT S, the Maserati GranCabrio Sport uses a more powerful and fuel-efficient version of Maserati’s, all-alloy 4.7-litre V8, coupled with the ZF six-speed automatic transmission. This naturally aspirated engine produces in this configuration 331 kW (450 horsepower) and has 510 Nm at the peak of its rich, thick torque curve.  The top speed of the Maserati GranCabrio Sport is 285 km/h.

Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale – Fastest Car in the Maserati Range

Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale Another lovely beauty expected to make an appearance at the Paris Motor Show will be the Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale, which Maserati says is the fastest, lightest and most powerful car in the Maserati’s stable. The latest incarnation of the GranTurismo is inspired by the company’s GT4 and Trofeo GranTurismo MC race cars. Maserati promises the MC Stradale will be the first GT to break the 300 km/h (186 mph) barrier thanks to improved aerodynamics and the power boost. It’s also more agile due to some knowledge sharing between Maserati’s racing program and the designers of the Stradale. It is powered by a 4.2 liter V8 engine that delivers 450 HP – an improvement over the standard 405 HP – while still offering the same fuel consumption as a standard Gran Turismo.
