GRANTURISMO MC.
RACE INSPIRED LUXURY.
The GranTurismo MC is the ultimate embodiment of Maserati’s knowledge gained over
nearly a century of creating the f inest cars for road and track. The GranTurismo MC is
a road car with authentic racing genes. A unique car with the unmistakable style of the
GranTurismo, renowned for its performance, design and comfort, it is also a car with the
sporting heritage of Maserati Corse, a synonym for pure adrenaline, whose name it wears
with pride. To automotive enthusiasts worldwide, Maserati Corse is also synonymous
with competition, continuous development, and lasting victory. It is at once the heritage
of Italian craftsmanship and attention to detail and technology tried and tested on the
track for exceptional, accessible performance. This is the synergy that has given birth to
Maserati’s most powerful and fastest production car: the GranTurismo MC is the f irst
road car in the Maserati range to brake the 186 mph(300 km/h) barrier.

OUTSTANDING ROAD PERFORMANCE :
THE GR ANTURISMO R ANGE.
The unique style of Maserati’s newest car is inherited from the family to
which it belongs: the GranTurismo range, four–seat cars of unparalleled
elegance and performance, the ultimate marriage of luxury and sports.
The GranTurismo MC takes the GranTurismo S to the next level; this
sportier version of the coupe, designed by Pininfarina and powered by a
4.7 L V8 engine, is emblematic of exclusivity and performance, making
excitement part of each fortunate owner’s everyday experience. While
the GranTurismo MC is the very epitome of the modern grand tourer,
its inspiration owes much more to the track than the road.

EXCELLENCE ON THE TR ACK:
THE GR ANTURISMO MC TROFEO.
Unbeatable performance. Ever more advanced technical solutions to drive reliability and
handling. It’s on the track, on the best race circuits around the world, that Maserati fully
develops the sporting potential of its cars. From the FIA GT1 World Championships, where
both Drivers’ and Teams’ titles fell to the mighty MC12, to the European series “Trofeo
Maserati GranTurismo MC” for discerning gentleman drivers, every competition in which
Maserati Corse participates is an opportunity to set new standards, and the GranTurismo
MC is the most recent product of this synchronicity between Maserati’s racing activities
and its road cars.
This latest Maserati inherits its purposeful design from its racing sibling, the GranTurismo
MC Trofeo. A car developed in response to the specif ic needs of racing with innovative
solutions tested in the unforgiving environment of the track: nowhere but on the track
can cars be pushed to their true limits. The GranTurismo MC is the reward of the handin-hand development of Maserati’s race and road cars: the symbol of synergy and the
search for excellence.

EUROPEAN MODEL SHOWN
ULTIMATE PERFORMANCE
WITHOUT COMPROMISE.
Having been developed from a race car, the GranTurismo MC is an unusually exciting and
responsive road car. This is due to its engine, more powerful than that of the GranTurismo
S, its improved aerodynamics and suspension, which makes the GranTurismo MC feel
more agile and dynamic than ever.
21
ENGINE.
The heart of the GranTurismo MC is its 4.7 L V8 engine, which puts out 444 hp (330 kW)
at 7,000 rpm. Power, f lexibility and instant response when cornering are all heightened
by the torque of 376 lb-ft (510 Nm) at 4,750 rpm, with a steeper curve at lower revs.
Many of the improvements to the V8 engine are due to reduced friction, thanks to the
redesigned oil sump f luid dynamics and DLC coating (Diamond-Like Coating) on the
tappets and camshaft lobes. The result is a smoother and more powerful engine with
reduced consumption and consequently lower emissions, which gives unbeatably f luid
gear changes while responding to the accelerator with an aggressive thrust and roar,
controlled by the pneumatic exhaust system valves.
Furthermore, just like on the GranTurismo S, the alloy engine with steel cylinder liners
is exceptionally light and compact, especially along the car’s longitudinal axis. The
optimized dynamics are also due to the single timing chain system which gives a lighter
response, improved reliability and reduced consumption.
Finally, in line with Maserati’s most recent philosophy, the engine features a wet sump
lubrication system, reducing the number of oil recovery pumps and extraneous noise: all
to the advantage of the perfect combination of comfort and sports performance.
22
TR ANSMISSION.
All the power that the V8 engine produces is harnessed by the proven
technology of a six-speed automatic transmission, commissioned from
ZF—the company that sets the industry standard. First introduced in
2007, the transmission has proved itself the ideal partner, as adept at
handling power when cruising as it is at reacting instantly when the
pace quickens.
For the GranTurismo MC, the programming of the transmission has
been further enhanced. In Sport mode the MC Autoshift programming
is activated to execute a perfect blip of the throttle on downshifts, and
to hold each gear at the red line on acceleration until the driver selects
the next one; this eliminates the possibility of an unexpected gear
change when cornering. The acceleration mapping has been improved
for even better throttle response, and a new MC Start Strategy has been
introduced for optimal standing start acceleration.
OPTIMIZED WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION.
Throughout its long history of providing the best automobiles for
competition and daily use, Maserati has paid special attention to
optimizing weight distribution in the quest for ever better handling.
Maserati engineers have achieved their objective by selecting all
components with an obsessive attention to detail, including the special
20’’ MC-Design alloy rims, designed for an aggressive look and f lowformed for even lower unsprung weight.
SUSPENSION.
For the highest performing car in the GranTurismo range, a 10 mm lower setup has been
developed for optimal handling and driving pleasure. Its standard single-rate dampers are
stiffer, and the GranTurismo MC includes larger-diameter roll bars which minimize lateral
load shifts (roll angle: -20%); overall, the car’s rigidity is increased by 16% at the front and
32% at the rear. The new setup is combined with a special MSP (Maserati Stability Program)
calibration, which gives the driver greater freedom of action. Maserati’s acclaimed Skyhook
adaptive suspension is available as an option.
EXHAUST AND BYPASS VALVE SYSTEM.
The acoustics of every Maserati receive special attention, and the GranTurismo MC is no
exception. A Maserati like this, designed for the road but developed through racing, must
have an intense, unmistakable sound: this has been achieved by perfectly matching the
exhaust with the insulation and using lighter rear silencers for a richer, more satisfying
sound. The exhaust is also equipped with a hinged silencer bypass valve to further enhance
the GranTurismo MC’s sportiness. The valve is permanently open in Sport mode. The MC
doesn’t just sound like a race car; just as they are on the GT4 and MC Trofeo race cars, the
exhausts are higher and more centrally located to further emphasizes the sharper character of
the GranTurismo MC.
25

TIR ES.
The GranTurismo MC is equipped with the latest generation of performance tires (255/35
ZR20 front and 295/35 ZR20 rear) developed by Pirelli, who also makes the tires for the
GranTurismo MC Trofeo.
Designed for optimal performance on both road and track, the 20’’ Pirelli PZero Corsa
tires are slightly wider than those provided as standard equipment on the GranTurismo S
and offer increased grip without compromising handling and comfort. Thanks to their
design and the use of materials conceived and ref ined by Pirelli for racing, they guarantee
unbeatable grip and response, together with improved precision and constant eff iciency
even on the track.
The rear tires feature an asymmetrical tread with large blocks on the outer shoulder for
improved lateral grip, while the front tires have a directional tread for outstanding grip
on both wet and dry surfaces.
27
The MSP system is designed to:
• Recognize the onset of skidding and helps stabilize the car in milliseconds;
• Help prevent the wheels from locking under braking (ABS);
• Distribute the braking force between the front and rear axles to help
maximize braking force (EBD);
• To help prevent the drive wheels from spinning on low grip surfaces (ASR);
• To help prevent the drive wheels from locking when down shifting on
low-grip surfaces (MSR).
When the Sport mode button is pressed, the action of the MSP is
moderated to provide more sporty handling. The cut-in threshold is
