Jim Butler Maserati

Jun 3, 2020

To say this has been a year where the unforeseeable becomes reality, and uncertainty governed many different markets would be an understatement. Here at Jim Butler Maserati of St Louis, we are coming in strong in every way for the summer months, and offering our top-level customer service for every inquiry and insight you may have for us. We know that over the last few years there has been quite a bit of smoke and mirrors regarding the Alfieri namesake, but it as the staff on duty at Car and Driver reported last week the touring coupe coming soon will again be named GranTurismo. 

An official Maserati spokesperson did confirm to the Car and Driver staff that the GranCabrio name will also now be revived for the new GranTurismo’s convertible version, with a hardtop coupe model beginning production as soon as 2022, and the soft top following in its footsteps a year later. This GranTurismo will slot into the new Maserati lineup alongside the mid-engined MC20, a highly-anticipated roadster that is likely to turn heads as drastically as anything we have ever offered in our illustrious and consistently track-ready history. 

The GranTurismo and GranCabrio are two models that will likely put Maserati on the map in terms of what will happen out there during the new and exciting wave of electrification. It was also disclosed to Car and Driver that the brand-new car will be the first Maserati to possess the electric powertrain and that is will definitely be manufactured in Turin, Italy. It’s not completely clear at this point whether this pair will be offered exclusively as EVs or if a lingering gasoline-only model would still be on the table. This article claims that the writers on duty hope with all their hearts that the Alfieri concept will still provide a bit of key design inspiration, which we understand as so much work and raw automotive passion was injected into it. 

The Alfieri concept was confirmed for production in 2016 at a FIAT Chrysler Automobiles event on May 6, 2014. As needs and market issues shift, having our eyes on the electrification milestone that we will reach are an exciting and pinnacle time in our brand’s history. It is no secret that the United States market is where Maserati has tended to flourish, and any track or touring enthusiast understands full well that when any number from the Ghibli to the mid-engined Bora drove by, they evoked a sense of amazement as well as deep appreciation. As we wait for what’s coming on the horizon, we also took a memorable look back at the 3500 GT this past week: this was such a gorgeous and characteristic model that was our very first ground-up grand tourer design!
