Maserati’s new GranCabrio will be priced from £95,630 when it goes on sale in the UK on April 2010.

Powered by a 4.7 litre V8 delivering 440bhp, the GranCabrio features a ZF automatic six-speed gearbox, reaches 0-62 mph in 5.4 seconds and has a top speed of 175 mph.

It’s the first four-seater convertible Maserati has produced and the Italian company insists the rear seats are “proper seats” to comfortably fit adult passengers.

Customers can personalise the GranCabrio in 14 different exterior colours and six different colours for the soft top.

The dashboard, door panels and rear side panels are available in the new ‘dark chrome’ standard finish but it is also possible to choose from precious woods, such as Carbalho and Moonwood, or coloured lacquer finishes.

Dealers will also be able to provide a bespoke four-piece leather luggage set which fits into the GranCabrio’s boot.
