The 2011 Maserati GranCabrio present very charming with fabric, ultra-high tech fabric, weighs very little, infinitely less than metal and helps the car’s road-holding: the overall system weight is just 65 kg. The car is four proper seats, comfortable, inviting and all-enveloping. It’s never before had a proper four-seater convertible, capable of accommodating four adults comfortably without stealing even the tiniest bit of the incomparable pleasure of travel.
Offer fabric is pliant, it complements the palette of the car’s exterior colours six times over, the number of shades in which it is available, from a solid black to a high-tech titanium grey, to a warm chocolate colour. Only 28 seconds, the time needed to close its soft top. A flying one too, thanks to a Cx of 0.35 with the roof up, which increases by a mere trifle, to 0.39, with the top down. The latest Trident creation is unrivalled on this level as well: with the soft top up 49% of the weight is over the front axle and 51% over the rear, whilst the rates with the soft top down become 48 and 52% respectively.
The car is fitted with a 4.7 litre 8-cylinder engine – also offered on the GranTurismo S – which delivers 323 kW, allows flexible, comfortable and fluid driveability in Normal mode and a more sporty and reactive response in Sport mode. And which has a 2,942 mm wheelbase, to have outstanding dynamic rigidity values, with a dynamic torsional frequency of the body in white configuration (BIW) of 27.2 Hz and a static torsional stiffness of 75,000 daNm\rad. The Maserati GranCabrio is therefore a highly satisfying performance car, equally at ease in everyday and in sporty driving conditions.
