Maserati GranTurismo MC Corse Concept


Maserati GranTurismo coupe and convertible are undoubtedly some of the most beautiful GT car on the road. This new car, looking for casual observers, as well as lead the GranTurismo. But try to take a closer look and you will know exactly what this car really is. The performance is even more GranTurismo does not look very good at first, like the GranTurismo S are fulfilling the role. The GranTurismo MC S Line Sport limited edition cars to the Middle East is the ante a bit, though. But the real tell-tale signs of the GranTurismo MC Corse race cars that GT4 has the same configuration and settings exhaust spoiler as a spy on the car, while the version here does not have street frontage and the extreme rear splitter / diffuser combinations found in car racing . This may suggest that the road-legal version of the pilot, did not differ with BMW M3 GTS. We’re not sure how that will sit down with the bosses at Ferrari Fiat franchise partners, but it is certainly a welcome idea for us.



Decklid spoiler spying lifted this extraordinary model for a fine race car, however, that we may see only a facelift of the car open. Inaugurated in 2007, the GranTurismo is due to light facelift, but would expect a little exterior changes to all who came – mechanic, a car must remain the same as the current 450-hp, 4.7-liter V-8 continued to power the rear wheels of the car through the automatic transmission.

Maserati GranTurismo S has prime to a higher level of performance with the creation of the GranTurismo MC Concept. Designed as a special track day, it offers a significant change in style that is designed to improve aerodynamic efficiency, without damaging the elegant lines of the original model. Maserati Corse Concept features two large air intakes designed to increase the flow of air from the engine and brakes, air combination of input / output integrated into the bonnet and keep pumped to accommodate the largest indication.
Tested the aerodynamic profile of the extensive and incorporate the new side air vents connected to the side skirts similar to the Nissan GT-R to channel hot air from the engine compartment around the car. Dual exhaust rear door had been integrated into the rear diffuser and spoiler to a much steeper angle to complement the effects of a new front aerodynamic splitter added. Maserati Racing Department engineers almost completely removed all traces of the original interior to save weight and add a FIA approved roll cage, Sparco racing wheel, racing seats and carbon panel and control console.
Corse concept of running a highly tuned version of the 4.7 liter V8 engine from the GranTurismo S, which now develops 510 Nm and 330.9kW to 4750 rpm.

This is achieved by installing a system of high performance air intake is combined with the exhaust system fitted with a catalytic converter type of race.
The end result is a total weight less than 1400 kg and the power to weight ration of less than 4.2 kg / kW.
