Maserati Grancabrio FAQs

• How much is a Maserati GranCabrio?

  Prices for the latest Maserati Grancabrio span between $335,000 for the Sport variant, and $355,000 for the top-tier MC variant. These prices are based on the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price and do not include on-road costs and extras. As far as on-road costs, this covers the likes of registration, stamp duty, dealer delivery fee, as well as any other government fees and taxes that might be applicable.

• Is the Maserati GranCabrio a supercar?

  Although you might be inclined to include this sizzling unit in the supercar bracket, at least based on price and looks, the GranCabrio isn't quite a supercar in itself. However, that doesn't take away from its many redeeming and worthy qualities. In essence, this is a car with head-turning looks, and an outstanding engine that gives it a real performance masterclass. With that said, it isn't at the top of its class for pace, efficiency or tech, so that's why it misses out on supercar status.

• What does MC mean in Maserati?

  As with many other auto-makers, acronyms make their way into the Maserati line-up, and in this instance, it is the MC designation that has many observers wondering what it means. To clarify the mystery, the MC stands for 'Maserati Corse', which is Italian for racing. This naming convention was first adopted when the brand launched a production car back in 2006, with the MC Victory based on the Gransport. Today it is still used across some models within the range.
