The GranTurismo is a rolling sculpture that whispers power and elegance, but it's not the sports car it appears to be.
Head-turning Italian design · Engine defies its size
Touchscreen controls frustrate · Harsh ride on rough roads
The 2026 Maserati GranTurismo is a masterclass in Italian design, with lines that could stop traffic and a cabin that cocoons you in luxury. Its engine defies expectations, delivering a punch well above its size, yet it manages to keep the cabin serenely quiet even at high speeds. However, the ride can be jarringly harsh, which feels at odds with its grand touring ambitions. Inside, the reliance on touchscreen controls can be maddening, especially when you're just trying to enjoy the drive. This is a car for those who value style and exclusivity over outright performance precision, and who don't mind trading a bit of comfort for a lot of presence.
Our pick: Modena ($165,000)
vs. Porsche 911: The 911 is the sharper tool in the shed, offering more precise handling and a more engaging drive.
