The design of the Maserati GranTurismo MC: dynamic, dramatic and beautiful
Directly inspired by our racing department, Maserati Corse, the streamlined styling of the GranTurismo MC makes a positive statement expressing craftsmanship and high performance.
Our experience of racing and fluid dynamics have allowed us to create an aerodynamic body with 25% more downforce at the front and 50% more at the rear than the GranTurismo S at 124 mph (200 km/h). In particular, the front spoiler, skirts and slots in the front fenders combine to press the front of the car down at high speeds, cool the brakes, extract hot air from the brakes and deliver downforce over the entire car. The side skirts have been integrated with the vents to channel air flow beneath the car, creating downforce to improve control at speed. The car’s highly sophisticated aerodynamics include two slots on the hood to cool the engine compartment.
The rear bumper has been redesigned for centrally located exhausts and combined with the diffuser profile to promote more efficient and directed air f low from under the body.
These apertures further stabilize the air f low behind the car to improve aerodynamic efficiency, while the rear spoiler produces additional downforce at high speeds. The wheels are equally sophisticated:
the20’’ f low-formed rims of the GranTurismo MC are lighter, to reduce unsprung weight, and bear the renowned Trident symbol on their double spokes—another statement of Maserati tradition.
