2024 Maserati GranCabrio: Open-Top GranTurismo Offers Twin-Turbo V6, Neck Warmers & Sophisticated Features

2024 Maserati GranCabrio Summary Points

• The Maserati GranTurismo’s fabric-roofed sibling, the GranCabrio, is the Trident brand’s newest grand touring convertible.

• Despite having a folding soft-top roof, the GranCabrio weighs just 220 lbs. (100 kilos) more than the GranTurismo, thanks to a lightweight Giorgio platform of magnesium, steel, and 65 percent aluminum.

• The 2024 Maserati GranCabrio has a detuned version of the twin-turbocharged Netunno V6 engine that debuted in the MC20 supercar.

2024 Maserati GranCabrio: What’s New?

The GranCabrio is the chop-top variant of the GranTurismo sports touring car. But unlike the latter, the GranCabrio will launch with a gas-only powertrain, with no announcement of an all-electric Folgore variant in the pipelines.

Highlighting the Maserati GranCabrio’s timeless body style is a power-folding canvass roof that can be opened or closed at speeds up to 31 mph. Maserati claims the top opens in 14 seconds and closes in 16 seconds using gesture control or swiping and holding the touch button on the center display. The trunk has a foldable divider to increase the boot space when the roof is up.

The GranCabrio’s power-folding canvass roof is available in black, blue marlin, titan gray, greige, and garnet. Meanwhile, the shapely body is available in green metallic, Grigio Incognito, Grigio Maratea Mattem Blu Modena, Bianco Astro, and Nero Assoluto.

Maserati’s Fuoriserie customization program offers 26 additional paint colors and a collection of bespoke materials.

2024 Maserati GranCabrio Powertrain

Laying neatly underneath the Maserati GranCabrio’s long and slender bonnet is the same engine you’ll find in the MC20 supercar. It’s a detuned variant of the MC20’s 3.0-liter Nettuno twin-turbocharged V6 but with wet sump lubrication and cylinder deactivation.

Capable of churning out 542 horsepower and 480 lb-ft. of torque, the twin-turbo V6 features a dual injection system and passive pre-chamber combustion derived from F1 racing engines to produce more power and torque while optimizing fuel economy. All Maserati GranCabrios have a standard all-wheel drivetrain and an eight-speed automatic transmission.
