The Maserati GranTurismo S Automatic is designed for drivers looking for a granturismo in its purest form. The new Maserati coupé provides power, driving pleasure and space for four adults in an exquisitely finished interior. The exterior styling by Pininfarina clothes that power and luxury in one of the most beautiful bodies on the road and as of mid-2010 has had an exterior upgrade to combine the sporty look of the GranTurismo S.

The models in the Maserati GranTurismo range can be driven every day but they also represent the last word in performance driving. This winning combination is embodied in the GranTurismo S Automatic, a vehicle that is fitted with a powerful 4.7 litre V8 that produces 440 hp and with a six-speed automatic transmission for a smooth and pleasurable drive.

The increased torque, mostly felt at low-mid range, together with the six-speed automatic gearbox, brings out the car’s true GT spirit. As on the GranTurismo S, the brakes are provided by Brembo. The Brembo brakes feature six piston calipers on the front clasping exceptional dual-cast discs, a setup where the cast iron rotors and aluminium hubs are cast as a single piece to lower weight but still deliver consistent performance even at high working temperatures.

On board comfort reaches its peak with the Skyhook damping system, standard with the GranTurismo S Automatic, that adjusts automatically according to the road conditions.
