EXTERIOR
The 2024 Maserati Gran Turismo is one of the most attractive grand tourers in the world. Bring it to Nairobi, and you will be trending on the socials for two consecutive weeks. The front end maintains the signature look, featuring a concave grille adorned with the iconic Maserati emblem to stamp its presence wherever it roams. Vertical and slim LED headlights & daytime running lights lend it a contemporary look.
Sleek lines and sculpted surfaces improve aerodynamics for better performance. The 20-inch alloy wheels on the front and 21-inch wheels at the rear improve the overall aesthetics of the Gran Turismo. The quad exhaust outlets at the rear add an aggressive look, as carbon fiber side skirts and front splitters make it appear more expensive and prestigious.
INTERIOR & TECHNOLOGY
The 2024 Maserati Gran Turismo interior is neatly furnished with premium leather, Alcantara, carbon fiber, brushed metal, and soft touches for a premium look. The first row has plenty of legroom and headroom. The second row is better left for kids due to the cramped space.
Behind the steering wheel sits a 12.2-inch digital instrument cluster, and for enhanced connectivity, the occupants have access to a 12.3-inch central touchscreen infotainment system embedded with Apple CarPlay & Android Auto. Other features include a 19-speaker sound system, climate control, USB-C ports, Bluetooth connectivity, and navigation.

PERFORMANCE: How Does it Handle Kenyan Roads?
The 2024 Maserati Gran Turismo has an engaging driving experience that is nothing short of exhilarating and full of thrill. The steering has responsive feedback for perfect road-bend adaptation, and the transmission is very fast and sharp. Its only limitation in Kenya is its low ground clearance, but at least you have the expressway to do some launches.
In a 0-100km/h the Gran Turismo only needs 3.3 seconds, and because it is very fast, it is fitted with large performance brakes to cope with its speed. Going for psychological counseling is good when dealing with stress, but driving the Gran Turismo is quite therapeutic and a better way to get out of stress and uncalled-for depression.
