New SuperCars !! 2017 Maserati GranCabrio V8 engine | Interior, Driving, Engine

Maserati has always built slightly bonkers, bohemian sports cars that look amazing but are just a bit too left-field for British car buyers. They don’t rot before your eyes anymore, but there is still a taint to them that is hard to pinpoint.
The GranCabrio follows this cliché to a tee; it’s fast, beautiful, and makes an excellent noise but doesn’t sell in any great quantity in the UK, despite ticking all the right boxes on paper and winning the hearts of motoring journalists who have driven it. The interior is opulent, over-the-top, and seats four; what more do you need in a Grand Tourer? The rear seats are big enough to seat proper grown-ups in comfort, though they will need to limit the amount of luggage that they bring because the boot is quite small.
The Maserati has a 4.7-litre V8 engine that develops 440hp and 361lb ft, so you’d expect it to be fast then, wouldn’t you? Well, you be right, but it’s only fast, never feral because the Maserati weighs quite a bit, which blunts performance and hurts fuel consumption; most owners will struggle to get more than 12mpg if they’re driving it hard. Maserati claims resale values will be better than on an equivalent Aston Martin or Porsche 911.
