Maserati GranCabrio Available In UK From RM 541,875

Maserati's latest, the GranCabrio, will be priced from £95,630 (RM 541,875) when it goes on sale in the UK next year. Essentially a convertible version of the sexy GranTurismo S, GranCabrio unsurprisingly comes with the same stunning styling and effortless performance: 0-100 km/h takes 5.4 seconds, while top speed stands at 282 km/h, thanks to a 434 bhp, 490 Nm 4.7-litre V8 engine mated to a six-speed ZF automatic gearbox.

Featuring a fabric roof instead of the initially planned retractable hardtop, the four-seater GranCabrio has the longest wheelbase of any convertible on the market, giving it class-leading spaciousness.

Maserati's “unrivaled personalisation program” provides 14 different exterior colours (including six roof colours), plus a variety of leather upholstery and interior trim to choose from. Additionally, customers can buy a four-piece leather luggage set and a trolley suitcase which promise to complement the car's trim perfectly.

Now available for order, the £95,630 GranCabrio will arrive in April 2010, commanding a £10,000 premium over its coupe sibling, GranTurismo S automatic.
