2018 Maserati GranCabrio

Based on the GranTurismo coupe, the GranCabrio convertible got a facelift and much-needed upgrade under the hood and tech for 2018. The sizeable GranTurismo is a pure Italian, given its Ferrari-developed engine and mechanicals, powered by a 4.7-litre V8 mated to a 6-speed automatic. Everything can be customised, including the interior, which can be had in a choice of many colours, accented by either wood or body-colour trim. This two-door 2+2 convertible is a grand tourer rather than an all-out sports car, but still offers a balanced drive thanks to an optimal 49:51 weight distribution and sporting suspension. It is fitted with an automatic gearbox and equipped with an adaptive control system which adjusts the gear-shifting mode to the driving style and conditions. All cars get a full suite of luxury features, such as power windows, premium audio system, electric mirrors, power-adjustable leather seats, alloy wheels, multiple airbags, ABS brakes, stability control and more.
