Iħjut Mutur ta ' Ġinevra: Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale

Standard GranTurismo luxury to be combined with MC Stradale's racer vibe. A four-seat version of the Maserati GranTurismo MC Stradale will be unveiled at the Geneva motor show. It follows the original MC Stradale, shorn of the standard GranTurismo's rear seats, which arrived in 2011.
The range flagship, the MC Stradale carries an array of modifications over the standard GranTurismo. The exterior features a carbonfibre bonnet with central air scoop, forged 20-inch alloy wheels and a new rear bumper arrangement. Maserati claims the interior includes new materials and style.
As with the two-seat version, the new GranTurismo MC Stradale is powered by a 4. 7-litre V8 producing 453bhp, which now also features in the GranTurismo Sport. It is paired with an MC Race Shift six-speed automated manual transmission.
The GranTurismo MC Stradale's claimed top speed is 188mph, with 0-60mph expected to take around five seconds. Improvements in efficiency have also been announced, although no figures have been released. Stopping power is provided by Brembo carbon-ceramic brakes.
There is no word yet on pricing for the four-seat MC Stradale, although expect a figure in the region of the two-seater's 110k. Next week's Geneva motor show will also mark the European debut of Maserati's Quattroporte saloon.
