New Maserati GranCabrio 3.0 V6 Trofeo 2dr Auto Review
Category: Convertible
Section: Version review
The Maserati GranCabrio addresses some of its predecessor’s shortcomings, with a much punchier engine and a much improved interior that has more usable rear seats than its rivals. However, a choppy ride and grumbly engine spoils it as a comfortable long-distance cruiser, while most alternatives at this price, including the Mercedes-AMG SL and Aston Martin DB12 Volante, are sharper to drive.
