Summary

Upgrading to the S trim level boosts performance thanks to a 4.7-liter V8 engine that produces 434 hp and 361 lb-ft of torque.

Standard features include alloy wheels, Brembo brakes, electronically adjustable suspension, adaptive bi-xenon headlamps, heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, navigation, and surround-sound. Safety is comprised of front-impact airbags, side-impact airbags, electronic stability control (ESC), and anti-lock braking (ABS). The GranTurismo is backed by a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty.
