2026 Maserati GranCabrio
The 2026 Maserati GranCabrio is the roofless sibling of the GranTurismo coupe, and for 2026 it gets a new sport exhaust. MotorTrend calls it a capable tourer oozing with Italian style, with light steering feel, a cramped second row and a tiny trunk, and says it is as fun to drive as it is to look at. Pricing runs $147,495 to $176,495.
What changed on the 2026 Maserati GranCabrio
Every 2026 GranCabrio gets a new sport exhaust system, and Car and Driver (opens in a new tab) says a Meccanica Lirica package joins the options list. It adds gold-colored badging and exhaust tips, a burgundy-and-light tan interior and black-and-gold wheels, and Maserati's designers suggest pairing it with the dark red Rosso Velluto or rose gold Oro Lirico paint.
GranCabrio pricing for 2026
The GranTurismo and GranCabrio together run $147,495 to $176,495 per Car and Driver, so the convertible sits in the upper part of that range against the coupe's entry price.
Living with the GranCabrio
MotorTrend (opens in a new tab) calls the GranCabrio not the most practical or sensible choice but a capable tourer with Italian style. Its flaws are light steering feel, a cramped second row, a tiny trunk and a screen-heavy interface that can be clunky and frustrating, yet something about the open car makes those forgettable. MotorTrend lists the BMW 8-Series Convertible, Porsche 911 Cabriolet and Mercedes-Benz SL-Class as competitors.
