aweSome Power At the heart of the GranCabrio lies Maserati’s glorious 4.7 litreV8, with a power delivery of 440 hp at 7000 rpm, and a maximum torque of 490 Nm at 4750 rpm.The engine is configured at 90°, with timing handled by two chain-driven overhead camshafts per bank and four valves per cylinder controlled by hydraulic tappets.The camshafts on the intake side are fitted with a low pressure continuous phase timing variator, with valve actuation times of less than 0.15 seconds. The single timing chain makes the engine exceptionally reliable and quiet, with very low friction levels and consequently reduced fuel consumption. The precision timing also means excellent cylinder filling capacity, which in turn enhances the car’s performance.
