The former is the brand’s Nettuno, a 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6 unit that will be offered in two tunes and first appeared on the MC20. However, instead of the exotic dry sump setup found in the MC20, the mill in GranTurismo gets a wet sump oil system.
In the Modena variant, the mill will generate a maximum power of 496 PS at 6,500 rpm along with a peak torque of 600 Nm at 3,000 rpm. As for the Trofeo trim, the power plant churns out 557 PS and 650 Nm of torque.
The EV variant comes with three e-motor, one driving the front axle and the other two the rear; with each electric motor providing 408 PS. The total system output is rated at 761 PS and 1,350 Nm. An uncommon 800V electric architecture operates the e-motors and power is drawn from a 92.5 kWh battery pack.
Drivetrain
The 2023 Maserati GranTurismo, unlike the previous gen model, gets all-wheel drive as standard for the first time.
Transmission
The drive is sent to the wheels via a ZF-sourced 8HP75 8-speed automatic transmission. Also part of the kit is a rear self-locking differential which is mechanical in Modena and electric in Trofeo trim.
Performance
The mentioned setup allows the new GT Modena to complete the century sprint in just 3.9 seconds and attain a top speed of 302 kmph. As for the Trofeo model, the 0-100 kmph acceleration takes 3.5 seconds and the top speed is rated at 320 kmph.

Braking and Handling
The GT variants feature the same suspension setup which includes a double wishbone at the front and a multi-link setup at the rear. The braking duty is performed by Brembo six-piston callipers clamping down on 380-mm discs at the front and four-piston callipers acting on 350-mm discs at the back.
