Event marks regional debut of a timeless Italian automotive icon
Al Tayer Motors, the UAE’s official Maserati importer-dealer, launched the new iteration of one of the brand’s icons, the new Maserati GranTurismo, marking a new chapter in a story that began 75 years ago with the Maserati A6 1500.
The GranTurismo coupé combines the high performance of a sports car comfortable for travelling long distances with a powerful internal combustion engine. It represents a benchmark, embodying the concept of ‘The Others Just Travel’.
Hamdy Elshantoury, General Manager at Maserati Middle East and Africa said: “The return of the icon, the new GranTurismo, marks a triumphant comeback for Maserati, blending heritage with innovation, embodying the Brand’s commitment to luxury performance. More than a car, it is a lifestyle, designed to exceed expectations and setting a new standard in the automotive world.”
“The Maserati GranTurismo is the car that personifies the term sportscar to generations of automotive connoisseurs with its timeless design, powerful performance and thunderous roar. We are thrilled to reintroduce the GranTurismo in the UAE market, fulfilling the eager anticipation of our customers,” said Jad Elias, Vice-President Maserati at Al Tayer Motors.
Available in the Modena and Trofeo versions through Al Tayer Motors and Premier Motors showrooms in the UAE. The fully electric version of the car, the GranTurismo Folgore, will be available later.
