MASERATI COUPé AND SPYDER - Sportiness combined with uncompromising luxury

Sportiness combined with uncompromising luxury: the Coupé and Spyder's cabin is designed to marry the volumes and lines of a thoroughbred sports car with comfortable seating for four adults.

Quality materials, handcrafted details and an elegant finish create the kind of exclusivity that have always characterised the Marque and the whole Trident concept of the GT.

A body-hugging driver's seat makes it virtually impossible to resist slipping behind the wheel, while sumptuous leather upholstery cocoons passengers in a cabin that combines classic and high-tech features to perfection. The traditional analogue instrumentation facing the driver is now white on a navy blue background.

Its controls are intuitive and immediately clear. But the Coupé also boasts the Maserati Info Centre, equipped with an optimised 5.8 inch colour display, at the centre of the facia. This integrated unit controls the sound system with single CD player as standard, the on- board computer, and the climate control system.

On request, the Info Centre can also include a GPS satellite navigation system, a GSM telephone module and CD changer.

Passengers have plenty of room at their disposal too and a comprehensive array of accessories means that on-board comfort is excellent.

The Coupé's specially designed front seats are equipped with all-electric adjustments, while the thought devoted to the needs of rear passengers by the Trident designers is obvious from the addition of "Easy-Entry" system, a central arm rest and convenient air vents.

An overall sense of roominess, the inclusion of differently-sized side storage pockets and a spacious 315-litre boot, large enough to take two golf bags or the made-to-measure luggage set (both available on request) make the Coupé the perfect GT for longer trips too.

On the Spyder Roof operation is fully powered too, with seamlessly smooth electro-hydraulic activation controlled by a button on the central tunnel. The soft top's three-layer covering and reinforced structure perfectly insulate the driver and passenger compartment from the outside world.
 

Meanwhile, the aerodynamic exterior design offers improved soundproofing at higher speeds and the heated glass rear window ensures optimal visibility in all driving conditions.

MASERATI COUPé - ELEGANT YET FUNCTIONAL CABIN

The GranSport's interior reflects its personality both in terms of aesthetics and functionality, yet also exudes the elegant good taste and luxurious comfort of a Trident Grand Tourer. The dashboard, body-hugging seats, tunnel, thick-rimmed steering wheel, impressive materials (leathers, carbon fibre and High-Tech cloth) all combine to create a highly personalised, attractively sporty ambience too.

The Maserati GranSport's dashboard boasts excellent specialist trim and central console options. The upper part of the dash is trimmed in leather, while the central area, framed by the car-coloured piping strip, is trimmed in a special high tech fabric originally developed for nautical use and available in Grigio Nickel (Nickel Grey), Blu Metal (Metal Blue) or Nero Competizione (Competition Black).

This is a double layered material which is not only very attractive but also non-slip and extremely hard-wearing, making it ideal for trimming the central area of sports seats. The front seats are designed for high lateral containment, and guarantee maximum driver contact with the car for perfect control.

They were developed with the help of the Maserati test drivers in line with the strictest ergonomic principles with the aim of combining sporty characteristics and excellent seat comfort for perfect, long distance driving. This is why the seats are also fully power adjustable and can, on request, be supplied with a heating option and memorised settings on the driver's side. The carbon, leather-trimmed tunnel separates the two front seats. It contains the Cambiocorsa control selector and the secondary commands, each one of which is set into an elegant chrome surround.

The main control buttons, including the blue Start button are grouped together on the central console near the driver. The climate control and CD player buttons are also set in a carbon feature on the central console.

From the initial feel of the three-spoke steering wheel of the Maserati GranSport, the driver will appreciate the work that has been done to mould the rim (trimmed in perforated leather and carbon) to offer improved ergonomic grip. All of the car's functions are arranged on the instrument binnacle which boasts sporty white graphics on a Maserati blue background.
