Maserati has announced that it is ending production of its Maserati GranTurismo and the company has produced a one-off car to mark the occasion, the Maserati GranTurismo Zéda.
The one-off Maserati GranTurismo Zéda comes with a 4.7-liter Ferrari V8 engine and 454 horsepower. This is the last GT produced until the new model launches.
The end of production of the Maserati GranTurismo and GranCabrio marks the beginning of a new path for the Modena plant. Work is already under way to update the production line in view of a total renovation that will see the facility devoted to the construction of the new super sports model, a high-performance car, characterised by state-of-the-art technology and scheduled to launch in 2020. In parallel, work has already started on a paint shop, a completely new addition to the facility, equipped with low environmental-impact, innovative technologies and boasting a special design enabling customers to personally view their cars as they are painted.
A Legacy of Luxury and Performance
The Maserati GranTurismo has been a symbol of luxury and performance since its debut. Known for its elegant design and powerful engine, the GranTurismo has been a favorite among car enthusiasts. The 4.7-liter Ferrari V8 engine is a testament to the car’s performance capabilities, delivering an exhilarating driving experience. With 454 horsepower, the GranTurismo Zéda is not just a farewell model but a celebration of what the GranTurismo has always stood for.
The GranTurismo has also been praised for its luxurious interior, featuring high-quality materials and advanced technology.

In addition to the new production line, Maserati is also investing in a new paint shop. This facility will use innovative, low environmental-impact technologies and will allow customers to view their cars as they are being painted.
